Hi,

 

I've been out of it for a while but, have spent about an hour or so looking/searching for this answer with out luck.

 

In the past I ran OSX 10.5 with a dual boot with Vista using the Chain0 method on my old computer(so I could use the Vista bootloader). It was a Via chipset so almost everytime a update came down, it died on me (Noob on OSX).

 

I built a new Core2 Quad machine with a Intel Chipset (Asus P5K-E) and running Windows 7 RTM as the primary OS. Is it possable to still use the Chain0 method and use the Windows boot loader to boot OSX (snow ?) ?

 

I do not have the 100mb "system reserved" partition (partitioned the drive before installing win7), if that helps any.

 

Is there a tutorial someplace on how this works with the new Windows 7 boot loader ?

 

Thanks in advance !

Chain0 method will most likely not work with W7. W7 uses a different approach on booting. You should try EasyBootCD method instead. There are some guides on it on the net. Use Google to finde.
