slyydrr Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 It's not going to work that way from what I know. A PC won't be able to boot from the DVD by default. Take a look at this thread: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=76404 Or this one too: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=86167 Search is your friend, as are the stickied posts...
