Multiple Partitions and Bootcamp ???
I really need some help with Running Multiple partitions on my Macbook Pro and Bootcamp. It should be possible I think, yet I've had no luck so far.
I've always run two partitions on my mac, one for my everyday computing, and the other for my Pro Audio set-up (specific drivers and OSX for optimal ProTools Performance).
I had to delete my Audio Partition (backed up of course) to install Bootcamp and Windows 8. The Windows install went fine, but then I went back to OSX and I tried to make a new partition for my audio and it totally wiped my Windows install (Bummer as Windows took forever to insall and Update to 8.1).
I did this by reducing my Original Partition and thought it should work (after reading some experiences online).
So Ive tired again, this time after using Bootcamp assistant to make the windows partition, I then immediately went back to disk utiltiy to make my 'Main' partition space smaller and create the 2nd partition from this. I thought this should work (again from reading of experiences online), but windows won't install at all now, and keeps giving me errors.
Is what I want to do impossible, or what might I be doing wrong?
I pretty much need to have the two OSX partitions and ProTools needs it's own space to truly work best, and is not compatible with Mavericks.
Appreciate any help here.
thx
