No, bootcamp is not required for virtual machines which are running from mac os x.

Parallels is a virtual machine emulator you can put any virtual OS into it without disturbing your Mac OS X system setup. Bootcamp is used when you are installing windows natively on the mac.

Can you move your windows partition on your mac to an external hard drive?

You can certainly move Windows to an external hard drive but Windows will not boot directly from an external drive. If you are running Windows in Parallels (See links below) you can have Parallels installed on the Mac's drive and then have your Windows virtual machine on the external drive.

Will Ubuntu run on a MacBook Pro?

Installing Server 2008 in a virtual machine is really no different than installing in a physical box; you boot the install DVD in the virtual machine and follow the prompts the same way as booting from the DVD on a real, physical machine.


You have an imac Can you run a PC on the same monitor?

You can install Windows onto your iMac and boot into the Windows OS using BootCamp. Though if you wish to run Windows while still working/using your Mac OS, you should refer to Parallels or VMFusion. These programs enable you to open a virtual desktop running Windows XP/Vista in a separate window.


When you install Ubuntu on Windows using VMWare how can you make sure that Ubuntu appears on the boot screen so that you can choose the OS at boot time?

You can't. You aren't running Ubuntu directly on the hardware, but in a virtual machine. The virtual machine requires you to boot into Windows before you can start it. I am not aware of any options for Windows that would let you boot and start only a single application separately from another boot entry.

How do you download combat arms on a Mac?

sorry, i don't exactly know what to do, but whatever you do, DO NOT DOWNLOAD CROSSOVER. IT IS A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME, AND A COMPUTER CRASHER.hope this helps, sorry if it didnt.Answer 2Unfortunately Combat Ams isn't a Mac Game. In order to play it, you must use Boot Camp, VMWare Fusion, or Parallels. Like the person above says, CrossOver and Wine don't work with Combat Arms. Boot camp is a program that comes built in with your Intel-Mac (No PowerPC). You can install Windows on it and set a hard drive partition for memory. VMWareFusion and Parallels do a similar thing.Hope This Helps. Good Luck!
