Hello folks,
So. Replacing windows SSD. Tried to clone from old win 7 SSD, fail. Tried to install fresh with other drives attached, fail.
Installed win7. Turns out it made one of its damned boot partitions. Still got the EFI partition on Lion, but whatever Windows did killed my ability to set my Chimera drive as primary in BIOS.
So I automatically boot into Windows unless I F12 and manually select the OSX drive.
I have a burning desire to nuke the Windows boot partition, but I suspect this is a bad idea.
I'm sure this has been gone over, but a search just turns up a bunch of "lol you really want separate drives to dual boot" threads...
Thanks.
PS: I WANT TO REFORMAT THE WINDOWS BOOT PARTITION WITH PREJUDICE AND DRAMATIC KEYSTROKES!!!!one! I WANT TO REFORMAT THAT SUCKER SO HARD!!!!!
