[QUOTE="cormac, post: 363935, member: 29526"] The title says it all. :blind: I downloaded and installed Bootcamp 1.2 and fired on with the setup and all that...I picked a partition of 5GBs, created my driver disk for Vista and popped the Vista installation disk into the MAC when prompted. I discovered that Vista requires at least 13gGBs of free space to insall so I cancelled the installation and rebooted the MAC. This did not load up MAC OSX as I expected! Instead I have a message on the screen saying 'No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key'. I popped in my OSX disk in the hope that I can do some kind of rescue or something but the screen stays once the disk is in. Any thoughts on how to resolve issue? Many thanks [/QUOTE]
