Dual boot? #13

Project looks lovely so far. Great work! I use my Matebook 13 daily, although I've been thinking about making it a Hackintosh as soon as the wifi capabilities are working. I'm not 100% sure I want to do this though, if I need to give up Windows entirely (I have much software that only runs in Windows). Would it be possible to partion the SSD to dual boot windows / Mac OS using this hack? That way I could choose on boot which OS I want to run (like MacOS bootcamp).

Thanks in advance!

Hi ! Yes, it's possible to dual boot with clover and choose the OS when booting. This is pretty strait forward, just search Dual Boot clover on google, lots of guides. However, it's usually recommended to use separate hard drives, but I guess partitioning would work too. I haven't done it myself cause I don't use windows that much, but you can check this guy : https://youtu.be/fdQivDt10NM He uses a different version of Clover, but the idea is basically the same.

Great! Thanks for the info. I'll definitely look into it more :)

I'm using dual boot since first Mojave installation you just have to install first osx then from disk utility, partition disk in two parts and format second partition in NTFS or exfat. Boot windows 10 installation, format exfat/ntfs partition(created before) and install windows on it. now clover isn't reachable. To solve and make both system bootable you have to boot osx with installation pen drive, mount EFI partition and in EFI/Microsoft/Boot rename bootmgfw.efi to bootmgfw-orig. For further information search a guide, there are a lot of more deep explanation on the web ☺️
