10.4: Boot another OS while OS X is hibernating
Authored by: clayhinson on Mar 28, '07 02:17:02PM

I have installed rEFIt (using the manual install - it's the only way to get the computer to wake up into rEFIt from Safe Sleep) and can confirm that you can start up OSX from there, and it will wake up your system and resume your session.

You can also start Windows XP from here (while OSX is hibernating), but after doing so, and shutting down, the system somehow loses the flag that tells it that it's hibernating, and OSX does a cold boot.

Does anyone have any more information on how to boot other OSes and then back into a hibernating OSX session with rEFIt?
