JSR Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Hi! I have a dual boot system with Mac Os X x86 and Vista. I'm actually using Windows Boot Manager as boot loader, but I'd like to use a graphic one like Acronis OS Selector (... I dislike it - It's impossible to change OS Selector theme, isn't it?). Which other graphic boot loader do you use/know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paranoid Marvin Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 I use grub, and I find it works quite well for Ubuntu + XP + OS X I have never managed to get the Acronis bootloader working for some strange reason. I can't give much advice on Vista though - perhaps a Linux forum can help there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmkgd Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 A bootloader it just there for a few seconds, so no real need for graphical doodads... Fastest/simplest would be darwin, vista's boot manager, ntldr, grub. As for AOSS, you can change the icons etc, but you need to hack it. Search in the customization subforum for the guide.

basbgm Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I don't know if you realy want a GRAPHICAL boot manager, but your boot.ini whitin windows can do it also. you have to copy the file "CHAIN0" from your OSX install dvd to your C: drive then set a new line in your boot.ini (also on your C: drive) like this: C:\chain0="MAC OSX" you could bring back your Timeout to 10 sec. it's enough...
