Because of a BIOS problem?  I would assume the Intel-based Macs also
use a BIOS which would be very similar to an AMD/Intel Windows box.

The Intel Macs have something called EFI.  I don't know how to get
into the settings on my Macbook, if it's even possible, but have never
needed to either, and can't think of why I would need to given the
various boot time shortcut keys they have.

So far I've reformatted my Mac once, to be sure I was rid of the crap
Microsoft eval software that put parts of itself all over the HD (like
Windows!), to use the case sensitive filesystem, and also just to see
what was involved with the process.
