Ok, so I've had TERRIBLE luck with Bootcamp.
The first time, it killed my Hard Drive.
THAT was quite a fiasco.
The second time, I got a disk error because I couldn't format the hard drive through the installer.
And now, Boot Camp can't even read the disc! I am getting VERY frustrated.
I have gone through three LEGAL copies of Windows XP Pro, and I am NOT happy.
Running Windows was one of the main reasons I bought a mac.
The second disk that produces a disk error is because of the fact that it's a quick installer that fills in certain options for you, skipping the option to format the hard drive.
Is there a workaround for this?
The third disc is a regular version, but when I put it in the drive and click 'start installation' in the Boot Camp Assistant, it says "The installer disc could not be found."
I have tried logging in as root, and the disc appears on the hard drive.
I have tried burning the disc and using the burned copy.
I am getting VERY frustrated and this has not been a good experience for me.
What happened to, "It just works?"
