Two OS / One Hard Drive

Well ive decided to upgrade to Snow Leopard, ill be using this same setup with a couple of changes, first ill have a Nvidia 8800GT, and a SATA 640Gig Hard Drive, setup to dual boot Windows 7 and Snow Leopard. Found this at sevenforums.com

First install Windows 7. Then, create a new partition for your osx within Windows 7 , format it as fat32 or ntfs and set to to be "active".

Then run the osx installation and before you start the install, go to Utilities and "disk utility" , select the partition you created from Windows 7 and format it as Journaled (don't delete it!).

Then, install as you would normally, selecting this partition as your installation target. (don't forget to customize your OSX installation with the necessary drivers for you system.)

After installation is complete, you will need to repair your Windows 7 boot loader, cause you probably won't be able to boot Windows 7.
Insert the Windows 7 installation DVD, at the first installation screen select your language etc, and at the second screen select "repair computer".
This will bring the Windows 7 boot loader back, so you can boot Windows 7.

Now you won't be able to load osx!
So boot in Windows 7, and unhide your hidden 200MB partition:

1. In disk management, assign a drive letter for your 200MB hidden partition.

2.Download EasyBCD and add a new boot entry, select MacOS, Generic X86, Add, Save.


ill keep you dated as i make this happen!

EDIT:

After trying to work this out, i for the life of me could not get this working! i now belive the best way to install OSX86 is to have 2 Hard Drives! everything is alot easyer and life is simple!
