Dual Boot?
20015jjw opened this issue · comments
I mainly want OS X for developing, but some games would be nice. Since this laptop comes with a huge SSD, is it possible to have OS X to dual boot with Windows 7?
I noticed the author of this github is already doing so.
Using Clover EFI as bootloader allows you to boot any EFI OS instantly.
I am dual booting OS X Mavericks, OS X Yosemite & Windows 8.1U.
Windows 7 does support EFI in a limited fashion, but you could do legacy booting for it.
However installing them both together is a bit tricky. OS X creates a hybrid GPT partition, Windows will not understand this and refuse to install (Windows 8.1 on GPT).
So its best to create the partitions using the Windows installer, quit, Install OS X, then install Windows on the partition you created for it.
