jonatasmz Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Hello guys :] i have two HDs one with VISTA installed and other with osx installed, both are working fine, but i can´t do a DUALBOOT, =\, i´m using both changing the FIRST HD in the BIOS. Someone can help me? cya obs: i know that Darwin cannot boot an OS from another physical hard disk, so what can i do?

The Dreaming Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 I know exactly how you feel! I got vista on one and ideneb on the other. I do all my game player under vista (have no choice, they don't make a shaiya client for mac!) but I find myself using the osx more and more for normal use. Is it as simple as using easy bcd on the vista side and simply making a new entry to switch to the second drive and boot from there?

MacUser2525 Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 My board uses the F12 key to bring up a boot menu from which the various devices it can boot from such as USB sticks, CD/DVD roms, network, hard drives can be selected perhaps yours has a similar feature.

The Dreaming Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 I started looking for the one in mine and I found it, but it's F10. I still wanted to just use a quick and easy boot menu and I read around the web were people were using easybcd to setup a multi boot with vista and osx86. I downloaded the program, installed it, added an entry for ideneb, saved it, rebooted and bingo. Now when I boot up the vista bootloader gives me the option of either going into vista or macosx! Sweet! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/133782-dualboot-2hds/#findComment-950011 Share on other sites More sharing options...
