Hey Guys!
In my Chimera bootloader, I have one OSX Logo for my Hackintosh HD and 3 Windows Logos for my 3 Windows Partitions. The problem is that I only need (and can use to boot) 1 Windows partition. Is there a way to remove the other partitions from my Chimera bootloader?
Greets, Loidlhammer

You'll need to edit your extra/com.apple.Boot.plist. Here's what my plist looks like: Code: <key>Default Partition</key> <string>Macintosh HD</string> <key>Hide Partition</key> <string>"Win7" "2TB Storage" "FAT32" "2TB External"</string> <key>Timeout</key> <string>4</string> If your NTFS drives/partitions don't have names/labels you can add that here in windows: - Start -> right-click "My Computer" and select "Manage" - click on "Disk Management" in the right pane.

I'm a little confused now, because my file looks like this: Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Kernel</key> <string>mach_kernel</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>arch=i386</string> <key>GraphicsEnabler</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Timeout</key> <string>2</string> <key>Legacy Logo</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>EthernetBuiltIn</key> <string>Yes</string> </dict> </plist>
What do I have to do? Put it in above Timeout?

just add the hide partitons key/string: <key>Hide Partition</key> <string>"drive name one" "drive name two"</string> and change the stuff in the double quotes to the drive names you want to hide.

Thanks,
I was running an install of Snow Leopard for about 6 months and always wanted to get rid of the 2 non-boot drives from Chameleon/Chimera. But I'd learned to live with it. It wasn't until I started messing around to install Lion that I thought I'd attempt to fix this again.
Such a simple solution. Thanks!
