Hi,
I'm asking this for educational purposes only. I've been using my Hackintosh for 1 year now. I boot without problems both ML and Win7 with Chimera.
My 2 drives are configured in this way:
- 120GB disk with Mountain Lion and Chimera
- 1TB disk with Windows 7
- 120GB disk is partitioned as follows: EFI partition (200MB); ML partition (120GB)
- 1TB disk is partitioned as follows: Boot (100MB/active); Windows itself (150GB); Storage partition (850GB)
If I enter the BIOS and change the boot order to boot from the Windows 7 drive it gives me an error: "reboot and select proper boot device". It seems that I can only boot Windows if I set the BIOS to boot from the 120GB drive and let Chimera do the work. I would like to know why I can't boot from the Windows drive anymore, given that it has a boot partition marked as active.
Thanks for your time,
