cbmkgd Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 If you insist on using acronis os selector: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=28506 However ubuntu's grub would also be great to multiboot.

stumped Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I done the acronis route with the booting thing. It shows my XP as one of the choices and then it shows " Mysterious Operating System" I click on XP and then you get to Vista's new boot loader. It still works an everything. Acronis is the main boot selector between windows and other, windows shows vista and previous windows Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/29625-dualboot-with-vista-ubuntu-linux-xp-hakintosh-using-acronis/#findComment-212219 Share on other sites More sharing options...

matulike Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 I didnt think Acronis worked with Vista... Didnt for me anyway. had to disable boot loader andx then it would load Vista. Unless you mean you select XP, and you've editted boot.ini in XP to find and boot Vista?
