First MacBook Annoyance
So I'm trying to make XP Pro work on a Boot Camp partition on the MacBook Pro. I've downloaded the instructions and have followed them as best I can. The problem is there appears to be a step missing.
The instructions state that "[e]ven though Boot Camp pre-formats the Windows partition, this partition can’t be used to boot the computer. You must reformat the new Windows partition using the Windows installer." My problem is that my Windows disc (which is a fully-functional, licensed, legal XP Pro w/SP 2 disc) doesn't give me the option to format unless I delete and recreate the partition, which I'm apparently not supposed to do.
Any ideas?
