Universe_JDJ Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 hey does anyone know a boot loader that works with vista and that can boot leopard? because the acronis does not work with vista ... You need to point Acronis to the Vista boot loader. It works, I've tried it.

Mebster Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 6851.... wait a minute, this isnt the 9999 replies thread! Universe_JDJ, what are you doing here?? OMG I just looked into it and it seems Universe_JDJ, you haven't been out off 9999 thread in months. Guess you escaped. Any suggestions on an app to allow me to select my osx drive to boot from xp?You could also use grub. I installed Ubuntu and although I'm pretty sure I'm not the Linux type I'm probably going to install Ubuntu again and allocate it 1GB or 2GB just so I could use the extremely customisable bootloader. I tried Acronis and used it for several months but for some reason I still like grubs simple bootloader. Also Acronis had a habit of messing up every few months. So would have to 'restore' the bootloader to get everything working. Slightly worrying.

Don't worry, I'll be going back. Anyway, I never noticed that with Acronis (MBR errors I mean).
