johnnysporto Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Just got ML installed with myHack and it seems to be working well. Am researching how to make a DSDT for my rig. Before then though I want to change the default boot drive to my windows drive. I built a G5 mod Windows 7(64)/ML system with each OS on separate drives. So far so good. Just want to default to the primary Windows drive. There is a post with how to do it for a dual boot system, just not sure if it's the same for me. Doesn't seem like it. Or maybe it's just slightly different. Thanks for you help.

Rampage Dev Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Just remove the timer from the Boot.plist so that it stops at the boot loader and then just select the Windows HDD (system reserved partition if present) else the other partition name.

3.14r2 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 There is an option in Chameleon org.chameleon.Boot.plist to set the default boot drive <key>Default Partition</key> <string>System Reserved</string> or with Cover <key>DefaultBootVolume</key> <string>System Reserved</string> Where System Reserved is how the Windows boot partition is named (change the name according to your configuration). Or set the Windows drive to be the boot drive in BIOS/UEFI.
