Hey I was wondering, is there a way to run boot camp on linux because I lost my Mac osx disk and it won't run on windows 7.

Other OS, Help!!! Please?

I don't understand the question. Boot Camp is comprised of Boot Camp Assistant (does not run on Linux, it only runs on Mac OS), a collection of Windows drivers that Apple has collected to support Apple hardware (does not run on Linux, it only runs on Windows), and a CSM-BIOS which can be used to boot Linux on Apple hardware.


I highly advise using VM wherever possible, and not using Boot Camp for native OS booting. It's painful and risks people's data.
