This is kind of a cosmetic thing, but is it possible to hide my "Storage" and "Time Machine" drives from Chameleon (but still have them load when I boot up either Mac OS X or Vista/Win7? (I'm using Vista x86 but am going to switch to 7 x 64 soon. I'm sure this isn't so hard to do and requires some plist editing, but I can't find which ones I'd need to edit.

EDIT: After some searching it appears this isn't currently possible...

vfaq: there's a locked topic in this very same page (1) of Chameleon Board-->General Discussion

see kabyl's tip: Hiding Extra Drives and Partitions
Stop bitching, start coding or documenting or both..

Wow that wasn't very nice of you.  I searched and found two other relevant threads other than my own and the locked one.  One suggests the feature should be added, meaning it isn't present, and the other states it crystal clear: http://forum.voodooprojects.org/index.php/topic,197.0.html

There is no way to currently do that.

Next time you want to call me a search-less noob (It was my bad) at least tell me that I SHOULD have searched, instead of saying it like there's an easy solution that was under my nose the whole time lol...

sigh

You'd be hard pressed to find a single post of mine that's about calling names.

Since you found other threads about what you want to know, you could just continue there, or make a new one with a reference to them + your observations?

Locking duplicate/triplicate topics isn't fun. Kabyl's tip says the same thing with different words.

Peace now?

Lol you misunderstood me... I didn't think you were being very harsh, it's just that maybe 99% of the time I make a post I do so making sure I am not going to make a moderator's job harder by posting on a duplicate topic.  This morning I wasn't thinking well at 6:30 AM so I forgot to search to make sure this issue didn't exist.  Final line is, even though you are in no way obligated to do so, I would have appreciated it more for you to say "search next time" instead of "follow kabyl's tip" which says nothing more than...search, rather than something regarding the actual issue. I apologize, I wasn't trying to accuse you of anything wrong.
