Hi there,
I have successfully installed Windows 10 onto a separate SSD in Mac Pro 2012.
Details as follows:
Mac OS: Mojave, version 10.14.6 installed on HDD - GPT - Mac OS Extended Journaled - Drive Bay 3
Windows OS: Windows 10 Legacy version 20H2 installed on SSD (SATA 860 EVO) - MBR - NTFS - Drive Bay 4
BootRom: 144.0.0.0.0
GPU = Radeon RX570, as such I have no Boot Screen
Procedure to install:
created a DVD with version 1803
used Brigadier to get the Apple drivers and Bootcamp control panel
upgraded Windows to version 20H2
upgraded AMD drivers
used Brigadier again for Apple drivers and Bootcamp control panel
To play safe, I installed Legacy option for Windows and don't want to use Open Core.
While I can access and change the startup Drive in the Bootcamp Control Panel, my System always starts in Windows, even if I select Mac OS.
What am I doing wrong? Does the Mac OS and the Windows have to be installed on the same drive for Bootcamp to work?
Any advice very much appreciated.
Cheers Bernd
