Hi,
I followed this tutorial: http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/2009/11/ ... -snow.html

But in step 4 I have a problem.
STEP 4: SET THE OS X PARTITION AS ACTIVE (NOT NECESSARY) UPDATE: The latest MultiBeast will take care of choosing boot0hfs instead of boot0 to automatically boot from hfs partition, even if it's inactive.

You now have to set the Snow Leopard partition so that your computer boots from it first. Therefore, Chameleon loads and you can select either Snow Leopard or Windows 7. You will have to issue a few commands to Terminal in order to accomplish this task.

Open Applications/Utilities/Terminal.
Type diskutil list
Write down the IDENTIFIER of your Apple_HFS Snow Leopard drive. For this example: disk0s2.
Type sudo -s
Enter your password.
Type fdisk -u /dev/rdisk0
Type y
Type fdisk -e /dev/rdisk0
Type p
Type f 2
Type w
Type y
Close Terminal and reboot.

The IDENTIFIER of my Apple_HFS Snow Leopard drive is disk0s3.

I followed the steps mentined above and know my PC won't boot unless I insert the iBoot Legacy CD and start from there...

PLEASE HELP!!
 
use chameleon for windows, install on Windows 7 and it will give u the option after boot to select which operating system to select
