^^^ Nice eraser, that looks pretty awesome! I actually just finished backing up my media files, and am about to *attempt* to move my media partition on my 2nd hard drive to the end of that hard drive and create a small (4-5gb) partition at the front of the drive (so it's bootable). If that goes well then I will either install XP or Vista on the partition and use it to play all of those PC games that I am starting to get withdrawal from since I've been using my PC as a Hackintosh full on for the past 3 months or so lol... Does anyone know if it would be better to either: A: set it up so i have to select the drive i want to boot from manually separating the bootloaders B: use the Vista bootloader C: use the Darwin bootloader
You probably should back up your entire Leopard install with Time Machine in case anything goes wrong with the partitions you can easily recover. I have a 100G HD split....60G Vista, 40G Leo, and started with a clean install of each which left me exactly 32G on each partition after both were installed. I use the Vista Bootloader, as the guide I was using walked me through it that way, plus I feel more comfortable with that incase anything goes wrong with the OS X partition. In my mind you don't want to screw something up on Leo and then not be able to even boot into Vista...but I guess that's what a Linux boot disk is for. The only downside is when using the Vista Bootloader, it sends you into the Darwin Bootloader when choosing your OS X partition...so you go through both anyway. Its not a big deal though.
I was expecting to have to go through Darwin anyway but that's no big deal. I actually have a time machine backup as well, but it doesn't back up my secondary drive which I use for media, only my system drive. My main problem is that you can't resize HFS+ partitions : ( Because of this, I can't make my Leopard partition on my System drive smaller so I can have Vista and Leopard on the same drive. I am not sure if it will work to dual boot Leo on one drive and XP on a partition of another.
LOL wasn't it you who told me not to start messing with resizing partitions IMO it would be easier to backup and start fresh..but good luck either way... Here's my latest and greatest
