Vista boots on Intel Mac

by Jordan Running on April 11, 2006 at 11:20 AM

Windows Vista on Intel MacWhat with the advent of Boot Camp, booting Windows XP on a new Intel Mac has become all but passé, but what about Windows Vista? Over at the OSx86 Project forums they're working on it, with a modicum of success. I'm not at all clear on the technical details--and I suggest you do a little more research than I have before attempting--but apparently the Vista installer tries to eliminate the OS X partition unless you remove the Mac's 200MB EFI partition before doing the install. So what's next? My vote is for OS/2 Warp.
