Don't wanna get Windows bootloader!!!
« on: September 14, 2009, 07:17:38 PM »
Hi,

When I boot my computer I first see the windows bootloader and when I select Mac OS X I see the chameleon bootloader. When I select windows at chameleon, I go back to the windows bootloader.

But what I want is this:
1. first see the chameleon bootloader when I boot my computer and 2. when I select windows in chameleon directly boot into windows without the windows bootloader.

I already tried to delete the windows entry and got point 1 working but not point 2. Does anyone know how to do this? I really like the Chameleon bootloader and it's much cooler then windows' :)

boot into Mac and open terminal:

fdisk -e /dev/disk0
p
f X (X= partition Chameleon is installed to)
w
y
q

That makes the Mac partition active, so you see Chameleon first.

Then boot into XP, right click My Computer, click properties. Click on the Advanced tab, then click on Settings under Startup and Recovery. Under System Startup, click edit and remove the line for Mac from the boot.ini. Save and reboot.
