Parallels and Boot Camp

If I install Windows XP on Boot Camp, then install Parallels to use Boot Camp partition will I still be able to boot on just Boot Camp? What am trying to accomplish here is use XP whenever I want inside Leopard or just use Boot Camp by itself. Some games are still not compatible with Parallels.

Will I need to do 2 different XP installs? I would hope 1 XP install would to the job.

Please advice.

 

Some tips:
1. You can do it, just do not reffit (it is opensource EFI manager), and do not delete any Boot Camp partitions
Use BootCamp assistant to install Windows
2. Use build 5608

 

With the 5608 update, do I need to create 2 hardware profiles just as describe on the sticky thread? I use the BootCamp assistant to install XP, install performs smoothly. All BootCamp drivers has been installed.

I just to want to messed up BootCamp and totally reinstall OSX.

How does Parallels manage the installed drivers on BootCamp? Will it automatically creates a new hardware profile?

 

Make sure Boot Cam update 2.1 installed,
Use Boot Cam assistant to install Windows Xp
You do not need to create separate profile
When you run Boot Camp in Parallels , Parallels Desktop adds necessary profile.
Just one tip, we are investigating it now and will try to find is this our side issue or old Boot Camp version.
Try to install Windows in the first 128gb of hard disk
