Dual booters, look here if you want to get rid of your System Reserved partition

[eggmcmuffin]

So many of you guys are using chameleon as your bootloader, and you are probably fed up with having to select "System Reserved" partition to get your windows to boot. So heres the steps to get rid of it.

 

You will need: A flash drive, a Chameleon bootloader(On a DVD please!!), and chameleon already installed.

 

On your OSX partition, head to finder, and click on your System Reserved volume. Copy all of the files to your desktop and then copy them to your flash drive(keep them on your desktop in case anything goes wrong).

 

Next, reboot, and go to your windows partition. Copy the bootmgr, bootsect.bak, System Volume information, and Boot files/folders ONE BY ONE to your C: drive. It will probably ask you to replace the Sys volume folder. Go ahead and do so.

 

Now that the 4 items are copied, go ahead and reboot, this time clicking on your windows partition. it should boot up, and now that means we can get rid of your System Reserved partition!

 

Boot to your OSX side, and head to disk utility. There you can erase your System Reserved partition.

 

If all goes well, you will not see your System Reserved partition.

 

I know this is purely cosmetic, but im just that sorta person

 

------ why did you have the DVD of chameleon?? Use it just incase your windows doesnt boot up, you can head to OSX and fix whats needed------
