<![CDATA[Boot Camp 1.2 beta and Windows Vista on MacBook Pro – Part 1]]>I installed Boot Camp 1.2 beta on my 15-inch MacBook Pro Core Duo 2.0GHz. I previously had an 8GB partition with Windows XP Professional installed on it. I started Windows Vista installation since Boot Camp 1.2 beta now supports it. It took about 20 minutes for Windows Vista Ultimate to install on my MacBook Pro; the installation went smoothly. After first log-in, I found out that I only had 6.5MB of free space on the Windows partition. At this point, there’s no way I could install the Macintosh Drivers provided by Boot Camp 1.2 beta.

Ah well, I had to repartition my hard drive. This time I will create a 12GB partition for Windows Vista. This will take a while since I don’t think Boot Camp can cleanly create a 12GB partition on my MacBook Pro hard drive.

I will post more on this.
