I am new to MorphOS but I am very experienced with completely trashing operating systems. I would like a second install of Morph on a separate HDD so I can "sandbox" on one drive and have a refined installation on the second drive.
All the info I see on dual booting is for the usual MacOS & MorphOS info as one would expect.
Does anyone have input on booting two drives with Morph + Morph? (I saw what happens when you have two DH1 partition names on two different drives but I have a hunch DH1 cannot be altered).
I can toss an Nvidia card in to have a separate monitor for OF if that is what I may need to pull this off.
Worst case, I will splice a toggle switch on the drive power cables and put a Hurst gear shifter on top of the machine but I'm unsure of where to mount the clutch pedal. : D
When booting MorphOS from OF, you've got to pass the bootdevice=dh2 (for example, must be a drive name, not a logical name). You could even create 2 HFS boot partitions, modify the bootinfo.txt to include said bootdevice argument so that you could use Apple's boot menu. That'll suck a bit since you mention NVidia as that's where the boot menu will show up.
I do advise starting by messing with OF prompts rather than modifying bootinfo.txt. Mind that you need to call "hfsssetmacboot boot:bootinfo.txt" from a shell to re-bless the file after editing of OpenFirmware won't read it.
