cayblood Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 I have a brand new installation of Leopard, updated to 10.5.6 on a 1st generation Core duo White Macbook. I have successfully set up bootcamp on this machine before but have to redo it after getting a hard drive replacement. I run the bootcamp assistant, create a 2nd FAT32 partition (15GB) for XP. Then I boot to the XP SP2 CD and run the installation, choosing to install onto the new 15GB partition without reformatting it. After it copies the files it reboots. Upon rebooting, it gives a DOS screen that says there was a boot failure. Don't remember the exact words, but I think it said something like "No boot disk available." I have restarted the bootcamp installation 3 times and the same boot problem keeps happening. Any ideas?

Mackenpisse Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 H! Cayblood I think, During the Windows installation process, you should reformatte your 15GB Partition to NTFS.
