Hi,
I'm in serious trouble!
Planning to sell this mac, and I have already a buyer. But I've just messed up this mac for trying to enlarge the windows partition. Result: both OS's stopped working. I really want to sell this mac properly. He asked for keeping BootCamp active.
Some months ago I've found a very easy way of installing Windows 7 using BootCamp and Parallels Desktop, but I can't find the guide anymore.. I tried doing it from what I could remember, but never succeeded. It sort of went like this:
You need:

You need:
- rEFit
- Parallels Desktop
- iso file for installing Windows 7
- BootCamp Assinstant
- NO cd's or dvd's
- Make a BootCamp partition using BootCamp Assistant
- Start Parallels Desktop
- Set some settings I can't remember
- Create the VM
- Go to configuration of VM and change hard disc, cd/dvd and boot order
- Start installing Windows 7 with Parallels
- During one of the restarts while installing, stop the VM and restart your computer booting from the BootCamp partition (with rEFit)
- Complete the rest of the installation of Windows 7
I'm really desperate. Searching the internet for a full 2 days brought me nothing.
If anyone could complete those steps I'd be enormously grateful!
Thanks in advance!
