Duna Unha Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 Hi everyone, I'm new to this Forum. ;DThe ideia here is to create a Guide on how to install Mac Os Lion 10.8 Dual Boot with Win7 on M14X (rev.1).This is how far a went...Well, I'm trying to get MAC OS to run in different boot Partition. Have anyone acquired that successfully ? (It need to be in a different partion, a fresh install, cause on a virtual Machine some apps wont work.)My Specs are:I7 - GT555MSSD on main HD bayHDD on caddy under DVD bay.So only USB Bootable for me.Here is I'm at:With Niresh's File:I'm using a version of Niresh pre-made iso, with many fixes. (Niresh12495-OSX-10.8-USB).BUT, I'm still unable to get to Install 1st screen.With UniBeast:With Unibeast, and adding Kext files chaging USB and External Divices, and many other using Multibeast BEFORE Installing, I was able to get the installation running.Booting with -v -x GraphicsEnabler=NoBUT, always get an error at about 15mim of files been copied the MACOS Partition.All right, if anyone have done this before, could you help me out please.

vladichimescu Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 You could read and adapt the how-to I made for the M11x R1: http://vladichimescu.me/pages/consultant/alienware_m11x_r1/ ... if I hear about someone making the sound work (the Creative Recon3Di), I will compile an DSDT and smooth this beast for the dual boot UEFI (maybe even find a way to switch graphics) - Windows 8 and OS X ML (I don't have the time to loose for the sound) (I'm trying to sell this machine until New Year) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mw86 Posted November 28, 2012 Share Posted November 28, 2012 In past ive done win xp/win7/linux multiboot using grubloader to enter linux or windows 7 loader and selecting win 7 or legacy os for xp. Could one make a four way multi boot like that or three way mac os/windows/linux? Paranoid Galaxy S3 on Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vladichimescu Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 having GPT(Alienware M14x R2 A09 bios supports UEFI=GPT) you may have the possibility to boot too many OSes to be count, but in MBR, OS and Windows partitions must be primary, Linux can boot from Extended partition: PS: there's no need to have a redundant menu, so why would you choose that ? @mw86 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
