[QUOTE="Slave_Feets, post: 1515101, member: 257659"] I am trying to re-dualboot my iMac. The problem lies in that I believe the cd drive is burning out so its having a hard time reading the OSX install cd to get the drivers for XP. I have a digital copy that I am going to put onto a USB drive and transfer over to Windows, mount and install the drivers that way. My problem is that the USB drive I have is FAT32 and I want to reformat it to HFS+ so I can transfer the OSX install to it. Will I be able to mount the OSX image from the USB drive even though it will be a read only file format? Or is there a different way that I can transfer a 8gb+ file between operating systems without using the cd drive? [/QUOTE]
