I have found a way to do this anyhow - it is not the best way and most certainly not the preferred method of doing it, but it works:ġ.) I downloaded the latest version of Chameleon 2.1 svn.Ģ.) I then created a bootable ISO with it and configured it just the way I want to properly boot into Mac OS X and load my custom DSDT.aml with all the options I want in the plist files.ģ.) As said - the ISO is bootable and will always load my own DSDT.
Whether I use the Windows installer, as per the link you posted (which is a very, very old version of Chameleon and does not even have the graphics enabler and advanced C states for my CPU yet) or the Mac installer - I am screwed anyways. I only want it to load the custom DSDT when I boot into Mac OS X otherwise Windows would not work as Windows will not handle the hardware correctly and cause BSOD very easily.
#Chameleon bootloader for windows install
When you install it to a Mac OS X partition - it would ALWAYS load the DSDT, which is also not what I want. Even when you boot into Mac OS X - it would still not load the custom DSDT because it is installed to a windows partition. It would just boot directly into Windows by loading "bootmgr" or in the case of Windows XP - "ntldr". You can install Chameleon to a Windows partition, but then as you said: No loading of the DSDT table would happen.
Hi, yes - you were right in your first post. I do not think chameleon will install on a Primary partition that is formatted as NTFS such as the Windows 7 partition. Yes, you do not need to have Mac OS X installed to use Chameleon, but you will need an EFI or "System Reserved" partition.
