taylert123 Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 So I have Vista and windows 7 on my computer currently (it's a dell inspiron 1525). I already downloaded Kalyway 10.5.2 and I really want to test out OSX before I go out and buy an apple computer. So anyway, My hard drive isn't really that big for 3 OSes (160) but I have a western Digital external hard drive (i think it's a passport one, in any case says it has 232GB total and i was planning to have OSX on about 60GB of that b/c it's basically what I can spare...) So, is this recommended or discouraged? I don't want to get rid of vista, but getting rid of Windows 7 wouldn't kill me...most likely OSX will be gone within 1-2 months which gives me time to reinstall Windows 7 and test her some more...

vboyz Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I tried the Win 7 + Leopard 10.5.6 Retail and no go. The reason why is that now Win 7 also uses the EFI partition I think, and Mac also uses it and they are racing to compete for EFI partition. if you find out how to do this, please post!!!
