I used Bootcamp on my new MacBook Pro 15" to install Windows XP Pro.
After some troubles everything worked fine.
Then I got VMware Fusion (latest version) installed and attached the Windows XP Pro. It did some magic, booted and all was fine.
But then the problems started...
I could not select any start up disk in the Preferences of Mac OS X, except for Network boot.
With the Option key I can select between Mac OS X and Windows XP just fine.
I can boot Mac OS X from the Bootcamp Panel in Windows XP.
I tried several things like removing VMware files for the Windows XP thing, removing partitions, but I still couldn't select anything other then the Network boot from the Startup disk in Preferences.
In the end I took the install DVD of Mac OS X, used the Disk utility and started all over. Kinda very annoying......
Anyone got an idea what could have gone wrong? I would like to use VMware Fusion to boot the Windows XP partition to do some stuff I can't do in Mac OS X (work related).
