Short version - just built my first Hackintosh (specs below). I have OSX Mavericks installed on one drive and Win7 Pro on a separate drive. Everything is working great, but I just can't seem to get Chameleon/Chimera (v2.2.1) to boot into Win 7 by default.
I have edited the "org.chameleon.Boot.plist" file in the Extra folder to add the following:
<key>Default Partition</key> <string>hd(0,1)</string>
But when I reboot the computer the only option Chameleon shows is "OS X" for a few seconds before booting (I can manually navigate to the Win7 partition and boot fine.)
Relevant info from diskutil:
diskutil list /dev/disk0 #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER 0: FDisk_partition_scheme *240.1 GB disk0 1: Windows_NTFS 240.1 GB disk0s1 /dev/disk1 #: TYPE NAME SIZE IDENTIFIER 0: GUID_partition_scheme *120.0 GB disk1 1: EFI EFI 209.7 MB disk1s1 2: Apple_HFS OS X 119.7 GB disk1s2
I have tried both "hd(0,1)" and "hd(0,)", and also tried moving the "Default Partition" key and string to the top and bottom of the list.
Here is what my Boot.plist currently shows:
<key>Default Partition</key> <string>hd(0,1)</string> <key>EthernetBuiltIn</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>No</string> <key>IGPEnabler</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Kernel</key> <string>mach_kernel</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string></string> <key>Legacy Logo</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Timeout</key> <string>5</string> <key>GenerateCStates</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>GeneratePStates</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>UseKernelCache</key> <string>Yes</string>
