TheQuantumByte Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 Hi, I was wondering whether it is possible to install Apple's Boot Camp on an OS X86 machine to dual boot Mac and Windows. Thanks in advance, Isaac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffer Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 No, the boot camp software can not be installed on anything but an Intel based Mac.. Because.. The Boot Camp software has little to do with Mac OS X itself and has more to do with the machine its on. Boot camp is what is known as EFI code, it is a software link between your OS and your hardware, it replaces the BIOS and in Boot Camp's example it actucally emulates a BIOS for windows to use. Attempting to install the Boot Camp EFI code into an existing EFI motherboard will cause that motherboard to be unusable... please do not attempt it. Options to consider are using your motherboards boot device selector or a good software boot selector. How ever the latter can be a little tricky to set up.
