Regardless, I appreciate that you took the time to respond and I apologize for being snippy. I'm not necessarily saying that was your intention, just that it reads that way. It's just plain not helpful and really just comes off as person B indirectly insulting the intelligence of person A by invalidating the issue they are having. The forum trend of person A asking "I have setup X, how do I do Y?" and person B responding with "X is bad, you should have setup Z" while not addressing the actual question of how to do Y is super annoying. Telling me to nuke my setup to solve a boot order issue is not really trying to help answer the original question. Why so negative to someone trying to help? If you are having trouble getting your install to work, let me know and I'll see if I can dig anything up. It's also worth noting that this machine is a frankenstein between a MD831LL/A and what was originally a MC976LL/A with a dead 650M so your mileage may vary. In case whatever guide you follow for your machine does not list it (11,1/Saucy does not, for example, but I believe I ended up using something from there since is in the repository list on the machine I downloaded the drivers with), you may also need this repository to get some stuff working: Select your Mac startup volume (Macintosh HD), then press. Release the key when you see a window showing all available startup volumes. When your Mac begins to restart, press and hold the Option (or Alt) key on your keyboard. How do I change it back to normal I have mac OS X set to reboot into OS X and XP set to reboot into XP in the system preferences and control panel respectively - in the boot camp options pane. Now it keeps defaulting to XP when Im in OS X, and vice versa. I had to install the wireless driver and all of its dependencies manually by downloading them on another computer and moving them over with a flash drive because neither wireless nor my (Thunderbolt) wired adaptor worked out of the box because whatever version I originally installed did not come with compatible drivers. How to set the default operating system Configure your hardware Use Boot Camp Control Panel in Windows to configure your keyboard, display, and other hardware used with your Intel-based Mac. If youre currently in Windows, you can restart by choosing Power from the Start menu. I formatted my Vista partition and put XP back on it. I will note that once I did get it installed, I had quite the time getting any network drivers working. Again, not really sure how I did it or why I did it that way. TBH, I would probably just use this guide instead of trying to abuse the Bootcamp install if I were to do it again. In particular, this guide is the one that says it works for the 10,1. I do think that I used some information from here: and here. It was a few years ago so I'm not exactly sure how I did it although I vaguely remember installing Windows and then replacing Windows with Ubuntu. Please describe how to install Ubuntu using Boot Camp.
