Hi All,
This is my first time to use bootcamp and install win8 to my mbp. Fortunately it is success.
Actually, I have a boxset win xp and want to install it to my mbp for Win8 upgrade. However, I can't install winXP, the winxp disc can boot to setup (blue bg color) but I can't type "ENTER" key for further install. So I try to install Win7 and I found this from internet. And it WORKS !!!!
Then, I upgrade to WIN8 immediately.
When I turn on my MAC and hold the key "option". It shows 4 hd.
SugarHome - is 120 Apple SSD and it is primary hd and installed OX Lion.
Recovery HD - this is come from 120 SSD. But I have no idea where is it come from.
Windows - is 500G HD and it is secondary hd (optical-bay) and installed WIN8.
MacStorage - in 500G HD too and have a cloned OX Lion from SugarHome.
(Windows & MacStorage) in same hd with 2 different partition. Coz I need to put the 500 HD to primary slot for Windows installation. After the windows installation success and put it back to optical-bay.
Well, this is my question.
1. Can I delete "MacStorage" ? and I want this for my daily file storage. If YES, how to delete it ? I mean delete the OX Lion.
2. Can I delete "Recovery HD" ? Actually I cannot find it physically. If YES, how to delete it ?
Thx for your guys help.
