Triboot xp / vista / kalyway sucess! on laptop


4 posts in this topic

Recommended Posts

wanted to share my sucess story with a triple boot of xp / vista / kalyway osx 10.5.1

 

Installed this on my HP Compaq 6910p

2gigs of RAM

250gig WD hard drive

ATi x2300 vid card

 

First Installed using the kalyway DVD using Mbr.

Formated my drive: 30gig Mac Journal extended, 20 gig MS dos, 200 gig MS dos

went through osx installation w/o a hitch.

 

Next i installed XP. Had to activate the 20 gig partition in xp setup. installed w/o a hitch

 

At this time the darwin bootloader was able to dual boot no problem.

 

Next i had to go into the xp diskmanager and active the 200gig partition so that Vista would install on that partition.

 

Installed Vista with no problems.

 

When vista installed is deactivated the OSX partition.

 

Used the Kalyway DVD w/ -s option. Typed the following to activate the OSX partition

 

fdisk -e /dev/rdisk0

flag 2 (number may vary, but it should be the partition number of the OSXinstall)

write

update

quit

reboot

at this time i booted all the way into OSX and opened up a terminal (application --> utilities ---> terminal) and typed the following

 

fdisk -e /dev/rdisk0

flag 3 (number may vary, but it should be the partition number of your Vista install

quit

Now i put in the Vista DVD and boot to it (because you'll get an error if you try to boot directly into vista)

click repair and reboot

 

At this time you should be able to reboot back into vista but not into OSX

 

So I used the kalyway dvd again with -s and typed this

 

fdisk -e /dev/rdisk0

flag 2 (number may vary, but it should be the partition number of the OSXinstall)

quit

reboot

 

Now you should be able to boot into all three. Thanks to all the help on this forum!! tripple booting rocks

hi!! new here.... I'm pretty much at the same situation as you. I plan to install it on my HP Pavilion HDX9095EA laptop, but delayed it because I am waiting for Windows Vista SP1 for all languages and Windows XP SP3, so I can re-install it all together.

 

My spec is as follows:

HP Pavilion HDX9095EA laptop

20.1 inch screen

ATi Mobility Radeon XT2600HD GDDR3 256MB (ironically, I am a fan of nVIDIA)

4GB HDD

250GB WD HDD x 2 = 500GB

Blu-ray BD-RE Drive Panasonic UJ-210

 

Now, here is my planned partition:

 

Disc 0

Partition 1: Vista 120GB

Partition 2: Mac OS X 50GB

Partition 3: Installation Files for the software installed on my laptop 70GB

Partition 4: HP Recovery Partition 10GB

Disc 1

Partition 1: XP 30GB

Partition 2: Documents 220GB

 

now, is there any suggestion to change this structure?

 

I have a bad experience with installing leopard last time (on my desktop, HP Pavilion a6235l). So, I need a help this time

 

I am no good at mac OSX commands. Could you clarify the number (i.e. flag 2 or flag 3) and what partition it's reffering to?

 

thanks in advance
