Create, use, and share multiple Boot Camp partitions
Authored by: Kirth Gersen on Feb 20, '11 02:34:02PM

This post is couple years old, but I was very excited to find it, as this partition scheme (under Bootcamp control) is EXACTLY what I've wanted to do. Up till now, other directions on the web have been unsuccesful and/or function in a way I don't desire.

BUT ... the instructions here didn't work for me :-(, specifically the apparently essential step in iPartition, "Write MBR Code", is grayed out and unavailable.

Unsurprisingly , my Windows bootcamp partition became unbootable, and I had to restore WinXP from a copy, using Winclone utility.

I've sent a support request to Coriolis Systems (iPartition), but if anyone has ideas in the meantime, please weigh in.
