Hi,
I have been trying to set up boot camp on my Intel iMac, but have been having trouble. Bootcamp says there is a minor corruption of my hard disk's volume header, but when I try to boot to the install DVD to run the Disk Repair, the iMac just rejects the DVD and boots from the hard disk.
I've tried changing the startup disk in the system preferences, I've tried holding down the "C" key (using both the bluetooth keyboard and then a USB keyboard), I've tried using the startup DVD's little reboot utility. None of this works.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
