Sudo chmod 777 /dev/disk0s3 using the correct partition numbering you found above (replace /dev/disk0s3 onwards).ĭiskutil umount /dev/disk0s3 – ejects the Windows partition.
I made a script to avoid this and enable me to simply enter bootcamp into Terminal. I used the info from a few other blogs for this and most permanently unmounted the Windows volume or required user interaction. It should work on any other Unix platform too. Hopefully this post will help others tackle the useful ability of booting a hard partition like a virtual disk, giving you the best of both worlds and not requiring management of two installations. Like more open source and powerful programs, it requires a fair bit of research to use it beyond a basic VM. I’ve used the more Mac like VMs (and pricey) but have found VirtualBox to trump them in term of features and control with command line interaction. VirtualBox is an extremely powerful virtualisation platform that is amazingly free. Sometimes I don’t want to restart just to run an app or test something out, so developed this bash script to boot it using Virtual Box.
I’ve had a BootCamp partition on my Macbook since it bought it I waited specifically for the Intel CoreDuo Macbooks.
