MacOSXrocksToo Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 Hi, I have a question, how would I modify the BOOT.INI file to add a second internal hard drive I just added to my computer? I want to be able to press f8 or f12, whatever it is, and see both of my hard drives, the 74.4GB one and the 17.2GB one. Right now, I have to go into BIOS, and turn off my primary hard drive (That has Windows on it, 74.4GB), and keep the other one on to be able to boot from it, BTW, it has OSx86 on it, hehehe :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/289022 for basics on the boot.ini file. Make a copy before you start editing it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacOSXrocksToo Posted March 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 Thats where I have been, but it shows that in the boot.ini file, you have to have the name of the operating system, and what folder it boots from. I don't know this about Mac OS X. All I want to do is add the hard drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Not sure if the Windows boot manager supports OS X; do a Google search. You may need an 3rd-party boot manager for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
