Re: Bootcamp question
Again, this is all true for 2015 machines and above. Mine is a 2014, and apple support, and a couple people who have experienced told me this, plus I have experienced it myself.

RE: Bootcamp question
Not quite true, You don't create the partition yourself But you do tell the installation how large you want to have the windows partition or should I say both partitions mac and windows. So long as you have your USB Flash drive inserted in your machine and it has the windows installation media on it then you will be fine. But as I said, You need to have a windows installation ISO file from which bootcamp creates the installation media on the USB Flash drive and will install from there This is all done through the bootcamp assistant And it's after the partition creation step that the machine will restart in to the windows installation partition / installation steps. -Original Message- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of KliphnShari Miller Sent: Tuesday, 5 February 2019 10:53 AM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Bootcamp question This is all true, except for that for 2014 machines and before, you have to partition the drive yourself, and and boot into that drive, then select the I installer drive yourself, then do everything as stated.

RE: Bootcamp question
When setting up a boot camp system you, Format a USB flash drive as fat32 You also need a windows image (ISO ) file from which the bootcamp assistant gets the windows installation files / data. Bootcamp assistant walks you through the first parts of the setup / config, Including dividing your harddrive in to the mac os and bootcamp partitions. Once you do this the installation will go through and as part of the windows installation you get asked to setup the partitions on the windows side of the HDD It should by default be a GUID partition which is setup by the boot camp assistant... Select the partition you want to install windows to in the windows setup, You need to check the partition sizes and then once selected you format the drive which will by default be NTFS if windows 10, Then follow the prompts. Going back to the USB Flash drive, If fat32 the bootcamp assistant will write all the installation related data to that including all files required from the windows ISO file.

Hi Jeff, Yes that is the way it installs things now although I believe the newer machines download the bc drivers to a temp location on the local machine.

I know there have been some recent posts about bootcamp and startup so I won’t answer those. If you want or security of FileVault for your Macintosh disk than every time the computer power is turned on, you need to login via File Vault because the encryption key for the disk must be opened.

Re: bootcamp question
Sorry, now I remember what else I wanted to say. If you turn off file vault, then the macintosh will start decrypting your files, and once that process is done then the Macintosh will prompt for UserName / Password after the OS is running so that VoiceOve and other services are available on the login screen.

Re: bootcamp question
Hi, I may be able assist you in my solution regarding the boot order when I was running Windows in bootcamp. You may think about these. 1. You could set the boot default when on the Windows side in system preferences. There is a link called bootCamp and a contextual menu drops down with one of the options to restart in OS. 2. On the Mac side, you could go to system preferences, startup, and select windows in the table to restart the Windows side. 3. There is also an utility called BootChamp that others have used to switch between the 2 sides. I am not using Yosemite, so I can't help with your second question. HTH.

Re: bootcamp question, apparently win7 drivers are unavailable?
You need to format your usb device as a FAT32 file format. You can do this in disk utility by hitting command + space and type disk utility. You find your drive in the side panel and tab to delete, chose FAT format and a name and tab to delete key. Let me know if this works, cause i have problems with this version of Mountain Lion and a Passport external. Bootcamp says it cannot make a bootable device. I have done it once before, but deleted the boot camp to make a new. Now it will not make a bootable usb device. Have tried both with LaCie and Passport. OSX can read and write to them because they are from OSX to FAT and reverse. Let me know if you have luck and wich OS you are running. Soon i will try with a Mountain Lion wthout updates.

Re: bootcamp question
There is not. I installed the Refit boot manager, which gives me first-letter navigation. So, as sson as the startup chime stops playing, I can press m to boot into Mac OS or w for Windows. If you don't install this you can use the arrow keys and just remember which OS is where, but I like Refit much better.

Re: bootcamp question
Too bad nobody packaged this up. I know if I blew out the EFI partition, I'd probably be having to send it back to Apple for a new hard drive. That's another thing you could accidentally blow away too. - Original Message - From: Bryan Smart bryansm...@bryansmart.com To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, March 11, 2010 8:06 PM Subject: RE: bootcamp question Yes; it is possible, , but not with the typical unattended answer files out there. They will erase your entire hard drive, like Sarah says. With a special unattended setup file, and some bundled drivers, it is possible to install Windows in BootCamp, but no one that knows how has wrapped it up in to a simple package that anyone can use. I know some people that have made rough versions that work well enough to get the basics of Windows going, and then install all of the drivers after install completes. The right way would be to include all of the drivers with the unattended setup. I've already made a good Windows 7 32 and 64 bit unattended setup that is floating around, but its intended for PCs that only run Windows. I have all of the bits to make one for BootCamp, but I just haven't had the time to do all of the experimenting yet. When you play around with making these, you must backup your computer, in case you make a mistaken the the unattended setup file and blow away your Mac partition. I've been traveling a lot lately, though, and don't have the extra time to spend with restoring backups and recovering from failed attempts, so have been putting it off. Need a stable computer in times like those *smile*. I'm back home for a few weeks, though, so will probably take a serious look at it this weekend. I'll share my results with the list.
