View Full Version : Dual booting
Can anyone give me some advice on dual booting?
I assume, all you need to do is make a partition and then install your selecting OS on the partition or is it more complicated?
Thanksss +rep to helpers.

When I installed gOS thats all it was, but it seemed realy complicated (I didn't know much about computers then), but Tawm helped me out :P

Thanks. I'd be looking to install an Apple operating system with Vista already installed though.

It gets a little more complicated with OS X as you have to partition a FAT32 partition, format that as Journaled Mac OS partition in the OS X installer, install OS X then edit the Vista bootloader, which is surprisingly easy and I can help you with :)

I assume that is why i couldn't choose a place to install MacOSX, it wouldn't show any HDDs or anything?
