crashnburn_in Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Mutltiple OSX for Multiple Hardware T61 & X61T + Win7 on same HDD I have a 100GB 7200 SATA HDD lying spare from my T61 as I replaced it with a larger WD. I want to use this HDD for several things together - I want to install several partitions (not necessarily in that order): - 1: Mac OSX SL customized for use in my X61T - 2: Mac OSX SL customized for use in my T61 - 3: Windows 7 for use in T61 or X61T - 4: Maybe a Linux or something? Can I do the above? If so, what order should I follow to do that and what things do I need to do.. MBR vs GUID Order of Installs Boot Manager / Loader / EFI etc. Some high level direction would be great.

oldtopman Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Remember, you only get 4 primary partitions. If you have less than 2GB of ram, I would have to recommend a swap partition (you almost need one if less than 1gb). CUSTOMIZED INSTRUCTION TIME!!! Which bootloder do you want: Chameleon or GRUB2? (GRUB2 is only for linuxes with GRUB2) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/228646-mutltiple-osx-for-multiple-hardware-t61-x61t-win7-on-same-hdd/#findComment-1532099 Share on other sites More sharing options...
