mus Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Hi, I'm just trying to dual-boot WinXP and Zephyroth 10.5.2 from one harddrive. Since my WinXP is encrypted with TrueCrypt Full Disk Encryption, I cannot use the Darwin Bootloader, so I tried the chain0 method. Partition 1: WinXP (primary, 10GB, encrypted) Partition 2: MacOSX (primary, 20GB) Partition 3: encrypted stuff (900GB) I copied the MacOSX-Installation from another drive to partition 2 with SuperDuper, booting it from DVD works fine. However, SuperDuper marked Partition 2 as active and that way TrueCrypt cannot boot Windows. When I change partiton 1 back to active with fdisk, TrueCrypt works, but when choosing MacOSX from the Windows-Boot-Menu I get "chain booting error". So does the MacOSX-partition need to be active for chain0 to work or may I have made another mistake? help would be much appreciated.
