iPC OSx86 / Windows 7 Dual Boot

[patsryan]

Hi

 

Kinda got myself into a bit of a problem!

Had iPC OSx86 10.5.6 (updated to 10.5.8 iDenweb) installed onto my Dell Inspiron 1545 laptop and everything worked (in perfect till i decided that i needed Windows 7 for college :/ anyway my drive was partitioned in two and windows 7 installed perfect only problem is the chameleon 2 bootloader was overwritten with the windows 7 boot loader and that does not recognize Mac OS X! anyone got a clue how to fix this?

 

EDIT: I tried to reinstall charmelon and now no bootloader appears have to use a BOOT-123 disk which sucks >

Use Easy BCD...

 

 

Then boot into your windows 7 boot CD... click repair and click command prompt...

 

Type Everything below:

 

Diskpart

 

Select Disk 0

 

List Partition

 

Select Partition # (replace the # sign with the partition number of OSX)

 

Active (will set the current partition as the boot partition...

 

Exit

 

Exit (must type this until Cmd prompt closes)

 

Now restart your computer by pressing restart button...

 

This time boot from the hard drive and OSX should boot or you should see chameleon giving u options to choose from windows 7 or OSX...

 

if it says no MBR available... u need to fix that with Easy BCD or U can just go back to command prompt from boot cd and this time set the window partition as active, and download easy bcd and fix ur MBR... If none of the above works, set windows partition active and u might have to reinstall OSX!
