Boot Camp unter El Capitan. (Bild: Screenshot via Twocanoes). Mit Boot Camp kann man bekanntlich aus seinem Mac (auch) eine Windows-Maschine machen 2. Use Boot Camp Assistant. Boot Camp assistant will create a disk layout that looks like this: You can see from the above screen shot that the BOOTCAMP partition is created on slice 5, right after the. Open Boot Camp Assistant, which is in the Utilities folder of your Applications folder. Follow the onscreen instructions. If you're asked to insert a USB drive, plug your USB flash drive into your Mac. Boot Camp Assistant will use it to create a bootable USB drive for Windows installation.
I have a Mac Pro 3,1 with an ATI Radeon RX580 8GB graphics card, a dosDude Catalina (10.15.6) install on an internal SSD and and a Windows 10 Pro (latest Version and updates) install on an internal HD.
In order to install Boot Camp drivers, please follow the article “Boot Camp x64 is unsupported on this computer model“. Post Tags: # BootCamp # El Capitan # iso # windows 10 Post navigation. Copy Boot Camp Assistant.app to a folder (ex: /Downloads). Right-click Show Package Content Edit info.plist in a good text editor (Sublime Text 3 for example). Remove your model from the Win7OnlyModels list. Save and run your custom Boot Camp Assistant.app.
Both macOS and the Windows work fine along with all parts of the Mac. As I a have the Radeon card I do not have a boot screen until either Catalina has mostly started up or Windows has started to boot, so I cannot change the booting by holding down the Option key.
I previously ran El Capitan instead of Catalina, and with that I had installed in Windows the Boot Camp 4 drivers, which allowed me to select macOS from the Boot Camp Assistant and reboot from Windows into El Capitan. From El Capitan I could select the Windows drive in the start up disc control panel and reboot into Windows.
However, since upgrading to Catalina, I can still select the Windows drive in the start up disc control panel and reboot into Windows. However if I select macOS from the Boot Camp Assistant and reboot the Mac, it always reboots into Windows.
My current work around is to shut down, remove the Windows drive, reboot in to Catalina, select Catalina in the Startup Disk control panel, reboot into Catalina, shut down, re-install the windows drive, start up and it starts up into Catalina again with the Windows disk mounted. I can then just select the Windows drive in the start up disc control panel and reboot into Windows when I need to.
From what I have read it's an issue with boot camp not liking the APFS file system Catalina uses. I have also read that a newer version of Boot Camp would fix the issue. I have upgraded Boot Camp to version 6, but this cause other issues in Windows and in the end I had to format the windows drive and re-install it from scratch along with the Boot Camp 4 drivers.
Can anybody tell me how I can get this issue sorted out so I can just switch using Boot Camp?
Many thanks
