Bootloader with 2 HDDs

[xan]

hi all,

im running this system
1 HDD - LEO AMD Rev1 with GUID & EFI
2 HDD - Windows XP standard Bootloader

now i need a method how to boot from one of this loader the other system. Cause its very complicated to boot everytime in bios and change the priority of the HDDs.
please help

as far as i know you cant add another volume to the bootloader, and please search before starting discussion <a href=http://osx.kbot.de/comments.php?DiscussionID=112&page=1#Item_5" >here</a href>

Try EasyBCD. It should work on XP and you can install the VIsta bootloader and then add the Leo partition into the bootlader easily.

Or you copy the chain0 file from your Leopard System to the root of your Windows partition. Now add C:/chain0=Leopard to your Win-Bootloader. (only on XP)

P.s.: Select in BIOS the HDD priority to the Windows' one ... ;-)

so easy? so where does this chain0 lying on my leo system?!
i have to copy it on C: and i add "C:/chain0=Leopard" to the boot.ini ?

so easy?

tried but i get a chain error

is this because i use GUID & EFI on my leo sys? can chain0 boot guid & efi?

Hi i use four drives in my system, one ubuntu one leo (zeph v1) vista and a storage drive.
I unplug other drives except the one installing and allow grub , darwin or whatever to think its the only os.
Then do the same with the others.
At boot i can then hit f8 on my m2n4 mobo to choose the os.
This trick works in a lot of other board-bios combos to!.

@xan: I don't know if it works with GUID/EFI. Doesn't seem so. I'm sorry. With MBR that would be all...

i read somewhere in the forums that osx uses now boot0 not chain0

What about Boot Camp? I'm serious! On EFI with GUID should it work, shouldn't it?
