[quote=AN][quote=flu]I’m sure part of the reason why this is effed up is because I’m in a triple boot environment between OSX, Linux, Windows 8 from a mac mini server that’s running dual SSD’s.[/quote]Why oh why would you want to do triple boot AND store your data on the same disk? All my pix/vids/etc (stuff that are priceless) sits on a RAID 10 external enclosure attached to my media server and being real time backed up to backblaze.com. That way, if the OS ever eff up or my hardware fail, I will never lose my priceless data and just re-install the OS. Also, triple booting on the same HDD is just asking for trouble IMHO. Why not get 3 mac mini to boot 3 different OS. They’re not that expensive and doesn’t take that much space.[/quote]
I wanted 1 computer to carry around, and something not bulky like a laptop… It’s not the money, it’s the convenience. I guess apparently not really convenient when your down.
Also the way the latest OSX works, you’re only allowed 4 partitions on the first drive, where one of the partitions is a mac recovery partition.
Windows also doesn’t boot from the second drive. At least I couldn’t get it to work awhile ago..
