EpicGeekFail Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 So I have a perfect little Asus 1005HAB netbook Hackintosh dual booter running 10.6.5. I installed OS X, then Windows. Unfortunately, since I dual boot, I have to go through EasyBCD then Chameleon to boot OS X. Is there any way I can just 'skip' EasyBCD or replace it with the Chameleon bootloader? Chameleon looks a lot cleaner and has more options for booting than EasyBCD. Thanks EpicGeekFail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks EpicGeekFail You can do this using the terminal when booting with iatkos 10.5.7 So boot with iatkos 10.5.7 (as it got chameleon as seperate install ) After that open the terminal from utilities on the menu bar and terminal In that enter that following diskutil list It will list the harddisk and its partition Make sure which drive has mac partition then enter fdisk -e /dev/rdisk0 - 0 here is the harddisk number and you have to change for yours flag 1 - 1 is the partition number and you have to change to reflect yours write - ignore the error and enter update exit reboot. After that you can see chameleon bootloader.Now if windows do not boot then boot with windows dvd and repair startutp problems. Thats it.
