Hi, all
Using Hide Partition in Chameleon but it doesn't seem to work.

What I want to hide is Mac OS X backup (disk3s1), data (disk3s3) and LION on SSD (disk1s2), so I enter

<key>Hide Partition</key>
<string>"Mac Data" "Mac OS X backup" "LION on SSD" "data"</string>
but only Mac Data doesn't show and others still show. I also tried using hd(3,1) hd(3,3)...etc but not successful.

How can I hide all?

Thanks in advance.

Not sure if that helps you, but why not create /etc/fstab with those partitions listed to not get mounted?

As an example:UUID=**************-****-***-********* none hfs rw,noauto 0 0
get the uuid from disk utility...

Thanks for your help.

I know how to get UUID, but how do you edit fstb?

most likely you'll still need to create that file.
you can do using sudo vi /etc/fstabor using any other editor of your choice. :)
