[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1609286, member: 56379"] Dual boot, triple boot, quadruple boot, etc. Just depends how many OS's and partitions the HD has setup/installed.:) Are you trying to perform this HD partitioning WHILE at the same time it's your current boot drive? Usually you can't partition the same drive you booted the computer from. - Nick p.s. I wanted to mention that I got confused in this thread. Post #1 says you have a 17" MacBook Pro…post #5 says "Mac Pro". These two terms are not equivalent: - MacBook Pro = laptop/desktop computer - Mac Pro = desktop computer (with 4 internal HD bays).
