If I want to run both OS's do I partition a drive,install OSX into the partition and then use it as a second start up disk?
I'm using a Quicksilver G4 733 - does my firmware need upgrading? thanks in adv j -------------------- Macbook Pro 2 ghz/15"/10.3.4/1 g RAM/x2 monitors/Logic Pro 7.2/Ableton Live 5.0/Reason 3/Fireface 800/PSP Vintage Warmer/Roland JD800/Roland SH101/Arturia Moog Modular/Epiphone Firebird 7/Guitar Rig/Dynaudio BM5a monitors.

"A double-boot system is inherently less stable than a single boot-system."
not really. in MY opinion. if you have one system on one partition and a different one on another partition, then if you are ever unable to boot from the one, you always have a backup... in other words - if somehow you one os gets damaged or corrupted, you can STILL BOOT your machine and do repairs.... |
