MACSOLU  The developer has acknowledged that this app currently does NOT work with the new UniBody MacBooks & MacBook Pros. Hopefully a fix will arrive soon...

VINCENT KWOK  First I feel this software is useful foe me, my case is I use raid 0 to set up my Leopard, Windows ins install at another drive, Bootchamp can let me easy to boot to Windows, but I found some problem, when I stay Bootchamp in my system, my mac pro can't sleep. Hope you will fix this bug soon.

BARQSX  Great little app that does exactly what it's meant to do -- and for free!

I had an issue where the the app failed to find my modified Windows volume (I had installed NTFS-3G to allow writing to my NTFS volume). I contacted the developer and he had a fix done the SAME DAY!

Amazing support for a useful app, all for free. You can't ask for more!

GARYI  What would be great is if it just booted into windows. Like in windows in the system tray is an icon to boot into OSX click it then yes and it reboots.

This one requires passwords, and I don't know why.

KWOJNIAK  Hi, it requires admin password because it uses a command line utility called "bless" which requires this. I will look into having the password stored in keychain though. Thanks.

BEN_MC  Excellent idea...but when I try to restart into Windows I am told it cannot find my Boot Camp volume, even though it is on the same disk and I can see it on my desktop... Any idea what's going on?

I'm running Leopard 10.5.4 on an MBP with half my internal HD used for Windows XP SP3 via Boot Camp.

KWOJNIAK  Hi, there is a known issue where it may not boot certain disks, and I'm trying to isolate the issue. Could you email me: kainjowATkainjowDOTcom - thanks!

AREOPAGETICA  Question: will BootChamp work as a one-click solution if the OpenFirmware password is set?

KWOJNIAK  Hi, I don't think OpenFirmware exists on the Intel Macs (I could be wrong though), which is what BootChamp requires.

TIM.DEHRING  There is a firmware password avail for the Intel Macs, which is included on the OS discs as an optional security measure.
