Hi Chris Excellent post, very well done! This post could be very useful regardless of whether you're installing via Boot Camp or not. Remember, however, that when you're installing a Boot Camp Windows partition, you will also require the Boot Camp drivers once the Windows installation is complete. I'm not entirely sure how you'd go about this now, because Lion and mountain Lion do not come on physical media. So you may have to download them via the Apple website.
In any event, thanks Chris for a very well constructed and informative post. Gordon On 2 Sep 2012, at 17:29, Chris <[email protected]> wrote: 1. Press c to boot from the Windows 7 DVD. 2.

If so, select the edition with the up and down arrow keys and press enter. If you have the 32 bit DVD it starts with Starter but on the 64 bit DVD it starts with Home Basic. In any case the order is either of the two, then Home Premium, Professional and finally Ultimate, in that order. 5. Press space to accept the license terms, and press enter. 6. Press c to click the custom button on the next screen. 7. Here shows a list of partitions and drives detected by setup.
