Remember which partition said BOOTCAMP before you partition :)ĭance around your office (optional, but recommended!) Select the bootcamp partition, choose advanced, choose to format the BOOTCAMP partition as usual. That is correct: we want to make the USB thumb drive not bootable now, as we are booting from the DVD and just using the thumb for support files.

If you've been trying to install from a USB thumb drive, you'll probably get a message about making the thumb not bootable. We need these for Apple hardware drivers.Ĭheck the option to install windows.

We don't need to copy the iso to the thumb drive, since we're using DVD.Ĭheck the option to copy the support files to the thumb drive. Uncheck the option to copy the installation files to a USB thumb drive.
On my iMac, there are four usb ports at the back facing the back of the iMac from right to left I had: external DVD drive, thumb drive, blank, apple keyboard w/ non-apple mouse plugged into keyboard. The ordering of things plugged into the USB ports seems to matter. Plug in your USB thumb drive, which we will still use to hold the Apple support files. You can download the ISO file for Windows 7 Ultimate, which will allow you to install Home, Ultimate, etc flavors of 64-bit Windows 7, here.) (Use the Disk Utility to burn the ISO to the DVD if needed.

Thanks to everyone who used my software over the years and I’m glad it’s been useful! If Apple ever opens up the ability for third-party developers to change the startup disk again and Windows is still a bootable OS on Mac hardware, I will look into bringing this project back.īootChamp has been the most successful open source software I’ve developed based on the number of monthly downloads. Update 2 (Nov 27, 2015): I am officially shutting down BootChamp. If you are disappointed with Apple about this, I would suggest reporting your concerns to them. BootChamp needs to identify this and use this partition instead of the actual NTFS partition. Unless anything changes, BootChamp will be EOL’d. bless' -folder option doesn't work all the time so switching to -mount should fix that Modern Windows installs (on systems without an optical drive) boot using EFI instead of BIOS and Windows modifies the EFI partition at disk0s1. It also doesn’t appear that Apple will create exceptions or workarounds, as that would defeat the purpose of the security layer. Apple’s documentation explicitly states that the bless tool can no longer be used due to SIP, so no update to BootChamp will be able to work around this issue. Update 1 (Oct 4, 2015): 10.11 was released a few days ago, and 10.11.1 beta is circulating. I will post updates when I find anything more. If it’s a feature, they need to update their bless tool and remove the featureset entirely. If it’s a bug, then that means Apple should be fixing it in a future point release, for example 10.11.1. Whether it’s a bug or a feature is impossible to tell at this point. I believe this is from changes related to the new “rootless” or System Integrity Protection feature of El Capitan ( more info). When clicking “Restart into Windows” a “Bless failed” error will show with “Could not set boot device property”.Īdditionally when looking at Console (in /Applications/Utilities) a message from sandboxd stating “deny nvram-set efi-boot-next” will appear. Since El Capitan beta 7 BootChamp no longer is functioning.
