When I come home today, I will try the suggestion from @Dil83. Maybe this will fix the issue. I will set the parameter to hd(1,1). The parameter hd(x,2) would boot up the NTFS partition, which don't work. -> Windows boot loader missing or something like this. Booting with the "windows reserved partition" always allowed me to boot up windows without any problem (manual).
Yes that is correct, I realized after I posted that you do have to boot Windows from the "System reserved" partition if that partition exists. So you have 3 hard drives in your system, and 2 of them are bootable OS X drives. If your parameter specifies either of the 2 OS X drives then it will be trying to make the Default Partition the EFI partition. Since the Chimera bootloader is installed on partition 2 of the OS X drives by default, the EFI partition is not bootable, so the boot parameter will be ignored.
Edit: P.S. I corrected my previous post
