Dragon Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 1. Insert the diskette with fdisk, change the active partition to the partition with Windows on it. 2. Boot into Windows. 3. Install Acronis Disk Director Suite, install the OS selector. 4. Start OS selector, configure (follow on screen steps) it and restart your computer. 5. After the last reboot you should see a nice dual boot menu and should be able to boot OSX. taken from : http://weblogs.hollandcollege.com/node/2889 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/7413-sda-sdb-hda-osx86-on-hda-grub-conf/#findComment-46331 Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Elliott Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 what 's +63 option ? +63 just tells the bootloader to look slightly farther into the harddrive for the OS, I needed to do this after giving the deadmoo vmware image a larger harddrive to work on. I've just left my linux grub conf file with the +63 for chainloader after reformatting and installing native from a 10.4.3 DVD and it hasn't given me any problems.
