    Hello all,

    I'd like to set up my system (currently running OS X 10.10) to be able to boot into Windows XP on startup. I have already setup Parallels 10 and have a significant amount of data on the virtual machine.

    I understand generally how to set up a dual-booting machine and how to partition a drive. What I would like to do is convert my XP virtual machine into a bootable partition. I am wondering if Parallels provides an easy way to do this, or if any method is otherwise available.

    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    No, there is no easy way.

    The method you can apply is the same as that is use for cloning physical machines, using Tools like Acronis True Disk.
