Hi
I have a 1Tb HD I want to use with Windows 7-64 and Lion 10.7.2 with 2 partitions per OS: can I do this ?
I have read a lot, including here, to have 2 partitions (one W7 and one Lion) but not sure I can have 2 per OS? I also read posts about hybridMBR or modified W7 BCD but I must admit I have not understood everything.
So I tried the following: my plan is to have :
1/ 2 partitions for Lion: one for system (200Gb) one for data (200Gb)
2/ 2 partitions for W7 : one for system (100Gb) one for data (500Gb)
I followed the guide : http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/2009/11/ ... -snow.html but created the 4 partitions (2 for Lion, 2 in FAT for W7), successfully installed Lion on first partition and then started to installed W7: but once I have reformatted the first FAT partition to NTFS, then Windows told me it could not be installed on this partition so I am stuck.
Did I made something wrong or it is simply impossible ?
Thanks for your help.
