mlmorg Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Hi all, I've got a gateway 450sx4 that I recently installed 10.4.8 on because I was pretty sure the install would work resonably well...and it did. I'm not sure if Leopard will work on it...but I think I'd at least like to try (unless the video card is so horrible that it will never work) so I was looking at this guide: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=73952 and was thinking of doing a guid partition so that I can keep my working tiger install and then try out a leopard install on the same disk. I'm pretty sure I understand how to create the guid partition but what I don't understand is how to boot into each seperate partition. I don't want to install leopard and then find out I can't get back into tiger...so do I do this? Do I need a bootloader? Also, is that guide a good one and is EFI needed like they say. Or should I just do a guid partition and then follow this guide: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=77069 Thanks for any help, Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlmorg Posted January 4, 2008 Author Share Posted January 4, 2008 Can anyone just tell me if I will be able to boot into tiger as well as leopard if I follow the Guid Partition EFI Guide and then Install Kalyway? I currently have tiger on my laptop working but would like to split the current drive into two partitions and then try installing leopard...if I follow this guide: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=73952 will I still be able to boot back into tiger if the kalyway leo install does not work?
