2 Hard Drives=2 Different Operating Systems?

**Chizzle** · 02-12-09, 12:00 AM

I told my roommate id help him out with a plan he is devising. Here is something he typed and something he is trying to get figured out before he leaves for Argentina. Any help would be greatly appreciated, especially since its not for me.

I bought a laptop with two distinct hard drives and vista preloaded onto one of them. I would like to install some kind of emulator software on the second drive to allow me to run Mac OS X Leopard and in turn some mac program like Final Cut. Ideally I would want to be able to turn on the machine and choose which operating system to boot. Any advice on obtaining a reliable emulator and OS X Leapord/Final Cut would be greatly appreciated.

My uncle built my dad with dual OS's.

I really don't know the specifics, but I know you can set it up to where all you have to do is press a key to boot into which ever OS. I dunno, I think it's worthless.

Quick and dirty way:

Install an OS on primary drive. Go into boot options and shuffle that primary drive to secondary. Boot and the secondary is now primary. Load OS 2.

Now just use BIOS when you boot to shuffle drive order whenever you want a different OS. I did that when I got a second hard drive and wanted to goof with Linux.
