BOOT CAMP FOR MAC 10.5.8 FOR MAC OS
To halt that from happening, simply hold down the Alt-Option key while the system powers on, and after a few seconds, you'll be presented with a gray start screen with two images of hard drives: choose the one of the left for Mac OS or the one on the right for Windows.īoot Camp also installs an icon labeled Startup Disk in the Control Panel in Windows and in the System Preferences window in Mac OS. Whichever OS you had running last will boot upon the next start-up. You must shut down one before booting to the other. What Boot Camp doesn't let you do is run both operating systems at the same time. We were able to connect to our LAN and the Internet, and even play a game of Minesweeper.
From our first pass with Windows on the iMac, however, the system appeared to be fully operational. We were still missing a USB driver and a PCI driver, along with some unknowns. We installed the contents of the driver disc that Boot Camp had us create, which filled in most, but not all, of the gaps. It's alive!Ī quick scan of the Device Manager showed that we were a few drivers short of a full deck. The Windows installation proceeded per its norm, the iMac restarted, and we were looking at the strange site of the glossy white iMac framing the familiar XP Bliss wallpaper. Note: You must supply your own copy of Windows you can use either Home or Pro, but Apple's documentation states that it must include SP2. The default was a paltry 5GB for Windows we upped it to an even 100GB, then inserted a Windows XP Pro with Service Pack 2 disc. After ejecting our newly minted driver disc, Boot Camp then asked us how we'd like to partition our iMac's 250GB hard drive. We were then prompted to burn a disc of Windows drivers (for the iMac Core Duo's video and audio adapters, peripherals, wired and wireless networking adapters, and so on), which are included in the Boot Camp download. Before we could run the app, we first had to update our iMac to Mac OS X 10.4.6, followed by a quick firmware update.
We installed Boot Camp on the iMac Core Duo the software will also work with the Mac Mini and the MacBook Pro.
