Cartman02AU Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 I have just tried to use pc_EFI 5.1 to boot my Leopard but can not get a boot loader working. I tried to use Grab4dos but it doen't start when I select it from Vista's boot menu. Am I missing something?

Mardig Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 I used the chain0 method along with the chain0 file modified to use with EFI 5.1. The name of the modified file is tboot. I also used EasyBCD on Vista to setup the dual boot on my two drive system. Disk 0, Vista, Disk 1 Leopard. Check the following threads: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...24&hl=tboot http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...87&hl=tboot or search on "chain0" "tboot" or "EasyBCD" Good Luck Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/75233-efi-and-vista-bootloader/#findComment-531664 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cartman02AU Posted December 8, 2007 Author Share Posted December 8, 2007 I had been using tboot to boot Leopard pre-EFI and have tried to use it since to no avail. I shall give it another go though.

Cartman02AU Posted December 16, 2007 Author Share Posted December 16, 2007 I have figured out what the problem is but I am unable to fix it. If I press F8 after selecting OSX from the Vista bootloader I can boot into Leopard from the Darwin menu. The problem is that Vista is the default. I have tried editing Boot.plist, adding rd and a timeout but it doesn't seem to do anything. When I make the OSX partition active, I get a "HFS+ partition error" upon boot Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/75233-efi-and-vista-bootloader/#findComment-539789 Share on other sites More sharing options...
