I've been doing a lot of reading on the forums, but haven't been able to find anybody with the same situation as me. I used the CustoMac Mini 2012 guide to choose my components, so I know that everything's compatible. If you'd like to know the specifics just let me know.
Anyways, what I'd like to do is have all of my OS/app files on the SSD, and use the HDD for data (music, docs, etc.).
Another user posted these instructions, but they were for an HDD:
"Windows then OS X Method
Boot using Unibeast Mountain Lion USB and create 1 HFS+ partition and 1 exFAT partition using GUID partition map.
Boot using Windows 7 DVD, format exFAT partition as NTFS and install.
Boot using Unibeast Mountain Lion USB and install OS X onto HFS+ partition. Just follow the Unibeast guide.
Don't forget to run Multibeast and ensure Chimera is installed.
Boot from HD and Chimera should automatically see both the Windows and OS X partitions. "
So can I just follow those directions; the fact that I'm using an SSD won't matter? Then would it just be a matter of partitioning my HDD into separate filesystems that both OS X and Windows 7 can detect?
Thank you!
