asap18 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Usually you dont have to do anything special but it will help if you tell us your mobo and chipset. Also for dual boot look for the Dual Boot official thread for a variety of options llike chain0 and acronis. If you want to do a vmware to native look for the guide in the genius bar.

asap18 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 The best way would be to try installing. Im not so sure about ur ati chipset though. I know bwshr8 said something about mac not liking the ati chipset. Just try it.

Well... No, The Genius Bar is for posting Tutorial, not for asking. So I move to the VMware forum.
