Dual Boot Windows 8 and XBMC
« on: Jun 01, 2014 at 03:56 PM »
May naka gawa na ba dito na gawing dual boot ang HTPC? Yun bang sa start-up mamimili ka kung xbmc or Windows 8 and magbo boot then kung walang ginawang choices after few seconds yung default ang magbo boot. Any step by step procedure para gawin to?

Thanks.

I think that's more auto launch to XBMC rather than booting. Windows ka pa din.

1. Install Windows 7/8
2. Install XBMCbuntu  (choose install side by side with Windows)
3. Reboot

Di na kailangan gumawa ng shortcut then paste sa starting apps folder?

Pag XBMCbuntu rekta na sya to XBMC.  But it has Linux Ubuntu under the hood.
