N0Lif3 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Here's my current situation. When I first installed Kalyway 10.5.1, the installer could only detect 128GB of my harddrive, so that is the partition there. I later got the fix to see my entire 250GB. I now have 10.5.2 all install and up to date working perfectly. If possible, I would like to install Windows XP onto that large unpartitioned area and be able to dual-boot between the two operating systems. If it'll help, allow me to share with you my specs. Darwin X86 boot loader OS X 10.5.2 Leopard (Kalyway 10.5.1 + 10.5.2comboupdate) Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L 2Ghz Pentium E2180 dual-core EVGA Geforce 7300GT 2GB (2x 1GB) DDR2 800Mhz 250GB SATA HDD I hope that helps.

Boot to a gParted live cd and format the free space to NTFS set the flag to boot on that partition and then boot to your XP disk and install XP. After that boot back into gparted and flag your OSX partition as boot and let Darwin be your bootloader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
