Full Version: Booting Xp From Hdd1 And Osx From Hdd2

hey people,

i have a basic OSX setup going and almost every is working fine (except for permanent lack of response apart from the mouse after periods off no use, and 3 messages along the lines of "HalResman60.kext not instaled properly" etc.), but i just can't figure out the booting

As said in the title, i have the whole of my 1st HDD with XP, and all of the 2nd with OSX, and i want to use the windows bootloader to boot both, but i just can't get it right, exactly what method should i go for

i have tried using chain0 and tboot, but they always come up with "chain booting error" or something of the sort

any help would be much appreciated!

Did you ever figure this out?

I would guess that it's because it's perhaps actually not possible for Win bootloader to correctly chain-load Chameleon Boot1h - although never tired it, so perhaps its just very hard to get right - cos I know you can chainload from Grub back to to Chameleon. Anyway, it's prob easier to do it the other way around and boot the OSX drive 1st, and let Chameleon give you the option to boot Win.
