i have never have issue doing dual boot for the pro book 4530s.
i just switch to a bigger HDD, i split the hdd into 3 parts, one for osx one for win 8.1 one for storage. i installed osx first then i installed win 8.1. then i use the usb to boot into osx and install the probook installer. when i boot up i cant see the win 8.1 part of the drive at all... i dont what i did wrong.

Did you press space bar to see the full Chameleon menu? What is in your org.chameleon.Boot.plist? Maybe you have the partition hidden in the Boot.plist...
 
yes, i pushed button to see the full list. the win 8.1 drive is not listed.
i didnt change anything on the blist. so i dont think that is the issue.

One more time: What is the contents of your org.chameleon.Boot.plist?

Also, what is the output of 'diskutil list' in Terminal?
 
i wiped the drive and doing a reinstall one more time. will post the info. once i got it done.
 
this time everything works.... not sure what's the issue in the first place....
