Ahmad Farah Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 Hola i think that if you install windows xp from the BOIS and install Acronis OS Selector it must show 2 system (Mac OSX and WINdows). goodluck,Ahmad Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/53280-how-can-i-install-the-dual-os-on-a-pc/#findComment-379657 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denicio Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 After I install the Mac OS XHow can I install the windows??? I tried the parallels and virtualbox, they are very slow Assuming you got another partition on you hard disk, the best method for me works like this: Install MacOS-X on one partition, then install Windows on the other. If you got Vista, download "EasyBCD" and add another entry to boot from MacOS-X as well (it has predefined settings, all you need to do is 2 - 3 clicks and you're set). OR Then again if you got Windows XP, edit the boot.ini file and add entry like: default=C:\CHAIN0 (CHAIN0 can be found on your OSX DVD), and below it add C:\CHAIN0="Macintosh OS-X 10.4.X" (along with the Windows entry *Don't delete it*), and reboot. Don't erase your Windows XP entries, just replace the OS on [default].

Maxmx Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Hi, but what if i can't find the boot.ini on my Win??? Where should it be? And what if Win XP is already installed - can i install Mac after Win? plus, i got only one HDD - so it have to be installed on one HDD but 2 partitions! Should this work, and if yes - HOW? mfg Max Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/53280-how-can-i-install-the-dual-os-on-a-pc/#findComment-380230 Share on other sites More sharing options...
