Hey guys my superdrive is caput. It doesnt read write or anything and im stuck for a month till the part comes.
But, i deleted my bootcamp partition before this happened. Now, i need windows and i cant use a cd.
Is there some way to use another mac (17-inch macbook pro) to install it on my pro 15 inch via target disk mode?
that is,
1. Put my comp in target disk mode
2. Connect it with a second mac (17 inch)
3. Place cd in drive of second mac
4. boot off cd in second mac
5. While installing, select the partition on my comp, ie the boot camp partition.
6. Rejoice....
Would this be a viable option? or am i completely wrong .THANKS
