The option to choose

Hello.


I finally install Boot Camp...But....


When I install Boot Camp, the installation created a partition 30 Gb, but did not called it "Bootcamp", but a common name like Disk...

I managed to open Windows 8 and change the name of the partition to Bootcamp.


I can see that in System Preferences, "Démarrage" (Start-up..), I have the option to choose between:

1. Bootcamp Windows

or

2. Macintosh HD, OS X, 10.11.2

But this choice is for ALL my start-up...


How can I have the option to choose between the two systems when I open, start-up, my Mac Book Pro ?


The only way I found is to start with Cmd-R keys...to open the special menu... and when I close this menu, then I am asked which systems I choose to work with....


Must be a more direct way...


Thank you

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

If I get your problem right, the solution for you would be pressing „alt“ on start-up. This should give you little icons of the available disks, where you can navigate using the ‚arrow-buttons‘ and than hit ‚enter'.


Hope I got your issue right and this helps 🙂



Edit: seems as if there was a faster answerer 😀 Since the solution sounds the same, we seem to understood the question right 😝
