    I have an Intel Mac with OSX on one hard drive and XP on the other hard drive. I would like Parallels to work with boot camp so I can switch between these two already installed OSes.

    Can it be done?

    Thanks!

    Boot camp support on non-default drives / partitions is a bit hit and miss at this stage. I suspect it will work fine with the final release, but I would guess it won't work with the current beta.

    Hi VTMac,

    I'm wondering if Paralles Desktop now supports this feature. If it does, I'll be buying it today.

    Hi DubWise,

    Personally, all of my Parallel sessions are located on an external drive and my internal HD only has Mac OS X.

    I only plug in that external drive when I need to run an XP session or a Linux session
