boot slips

[guitaristz]

EDIT: With the new Guide at the top from OSX86 (and entering the ID string) it has now worked. Thanks.

 

I still can't currently boot into OSX.

 

Vista, mac (journaled), PCLOS, data partition

13 gig, 12gigs, 8 gigs, 20 gigs

 

I'm stuck in Vista, If I change the boot flag to mac I get an error out of the BIOS launch. I have bcdedit and G Parted but am in over my head as I can't get back to what I had prior: a triple boot. I can't wait to OSX back this Vista runs super hot and wastes the battery at 3x the XP rate.

 

I can use terminal but prefer GUIs if possible. I notice in the PCLinuxOS whence CD booted there is a nice boot app but it didn't work yet here.

 

I've got the chain0 in C: and see it at startup but selecting mac OSX just nets some error. The other Genius instructions haven't worked. Sorry.

 

Here's the Grub menu.lst The last entry is a audio friendly linux kernal. PCLinuxOS is very amazing as is mac.
