CoolMacPro Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I have just installed vista on the XP partition(origianlly created using bootcamp). Now for some reason this partition does not show up in the start up disk system preferences pane in OSX(though I can boot vista by pressing down the ALT key at startup). Does it have to do with the fact the Vista uses NTFS and not FAT32?

erbic Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Are you using MacFUSE to get read-write access to the partition? If so, then that kinda messes up the Startup Disk screen, since the volume is mounted like a network volume. Other than that, I don't know. You could always install rEFIt so you don't have to hold down Option for a boot menu.
