semthex Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 Best way to do yo is using fdisk from a linux liveCD. There are serveral good and small liveCDs out there which will do the job. Just get one of the small images, they will help you out.

Startup Disk doesn't work in Hackintoshes because of BIOS vs EFI. OSX has a built-in bootloader. You can access it by hitting F8 at boot. Or you can reveal it by setting the Timeout parameter in OSX's boot.plist file.
