hi everyone, I've been on a everQuest to ****ing make a multiple partition set-up on my macbook . here is what I got so far


OSX (31G): - HFS+ Format Leopard (legal version)
- vmware fusion installed
- NTFS-3G and Macfused installed and working

XP(31G): - NTFS Format XP Ultimate
- macdrive installed

Storage(170G) - NTFS
- Work, music, games and video shall be stored on it

Right now I am able to boot in windows directly or use vmware but when i use vmware fusion, i dont see my storage partition.... this is probly b/c vmware doesnt want two disk to be mounted in same time.

NTFS-3G works kinda ok..... i probly got to write some default script so it doesnt touch my storage partition on start-up. If i would let it mount on start up there is a possible case of conflict between os's


Anyways, I Would like to know if there anyone experimented with adding a disk on vmware (without copying it - that would be stupid) and using NTFS-3G


Best regards,

If by "jacked" version of Leopard you're referring to an illegal copy of Leopard, then the first thing you need to do is buy a legal copy, install it, and come back for advice.

Regards.

I download music... That I pay for via iTunes.

He was saying that because we won't offer support or any kind of help to someone using an illegal copy of OSX.

I personally have a MSDN subscription, so any MS product is free for me.

Well, the reason why i downloaded Leopard is because i got screwed over last year when they took bootcamp beta and i couldnt fix my cpu..... and windows, i dont feel like paying for a product that i paid already many times on computers before.

We don't permit discussion of illegal activity - and we're certainly not going to help anyone with their stolen software.
