I recently installed Beta 2 3094 and I have two XP computers setup. One is my Parallels XP and one is my Boot Camp Partition. I can open both with Parallels, but now i can't dual boot. When I restart my computer and hold down the option key the computer just restarts. Also, when i start the bootcamp partition in Paralels, the hard drive disappears from the desktop till I exit. Any information would be appreciated.
I can't tell you why you can no longer dual boot, but I can assure that the disappearance of the bootcamp partition from OSX while the VM is running is expected and necessary behavior. Two operating systems simultaneously accessing the same partition is a recipe for instant corruption. If you want to access one partition in two OS's one of them has to go through the other so there is only one low level driver involved.
