lessew Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 1) I think that you should be able to install EFI v 5.1. If you do that, and then install Mac OSX, you should (correct me if I'm wrong) be able to use the Bootcamp utility. 2) You'll lose your data on the drive you install OSX to. I'd suggest backing it all up before doing any sort of hacking. 3) WinRAR will do it, or TheUnarchiver if you're currently on OSX. 4) Not sure. Don't know what the best version out there is, as I'm not longer running Hackint0sh.

Objection Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 Bootcamp has yet to work with anyone's Hack, including those running EFI with Vanilla Kernel. I use EasyBCD with the Vista bootloader personally. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/73164-dual-boot-noob-alert/#findComment-517167 Share on other sites More sharing options...

(MoC) Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 Ok, Bob. You can dual boot easily with a boot manager like GRUB or LILO or Darwin BL. For guides search the forum, wiki, and Google. For proggies, send me a pm or use google Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/73164-dual-boot-noob-alert/#findComment-517360 Share on other sites More sharing options...

nintendo_skyline Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 I personally liked the chain0 method when I dual booted XP and Mac OS X. As for the .dmg I would just convert it to .iso or something and burn it. a quick google search will do.
