For 1) I dont know the solution, you should post the disk layout from both Windows & OS X, maybe someone has an idea. From Windows you type "Computer Management" in the search box and the console should open, then look for Disk Mmanagement, or even better (harder) use diskpart.exe command line. From OS X you can type "diskutil list" in Terminal.
From what I know you cant boot OS X from Windows boot manager in different disks.
When your OS X disk is primary, do you see the RAID partition in chameleon menu? If not I dont have any idea to fix it, apart from using another boot manager on top of both windows bootmgr and chameleon.
For 2) you may be able to boot OS X in RAID mode if you have an Intel ICH SATA chipset, using one of the legacy kexts posted here |
1) I'll try to post my disk management later......but don't know how i can upload a photo on here.....look @ my reply to razy60 with regards to my disk management.....when the chameleon screen boots up, i see 4 icons and assume they correspond to my hdds n partitions.....osx icon, vista, recovery partition and another icon (which is probably my 2nd hdd that came with the system. that HDD only contains DATA). could chameleon and vista bootmgr conflict with one another?
2) how do i check if i have an intel ICH SATA chipset? would cpu-z tell me? thanx for the link. if this helps, this is my mobo Asus IPIBL-LB ( http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/d...roduct=3688702)
thanx.
