Se podrá hacer dualboot con Clover usando únicamente MBR DELL N4050

Goodnight everyone

I'll cut to the chase, I have a Dell N4050 laptop, installed Mojave and using Clover.

This computer, Dell N4050 does not support UEFI (GPT), it only uses Legacy (MBR).

My goal is to dualboot Windows 10 and Mojave, the question is:

How to install Windows 10 if I already have Mojave installed?

Can I install Windows 10 using MBR and then configure Clover to choose between Mojave and Windows?

He made the partition for Windows in exfat, but I don't know what to do...

  1. Yes, it is possible to dual-boot Windows 10 and Mojave on a Dell N4050 laptop that uses Legacy (MBR) instead of UEFI (GPT). Here's a general outline of the steps you can follow:

    1. Prepare a Windows 10 Installation Media: Create a bootable USB drive with Windows 10 installation files using the official Windows 10 Media Creation Tool or another reliable method.

    2. Create a Separate Partition: In macOS Mojave, use Disk Utility to create a new partition on your hard drive. This new partition will be used to install Windows 10. Make sure to leave enough space for the Windows installation.

    3. Install Windows 10: Boot your Dell N4050 laptop from the Windows 10 installation USB drive. During the installation process, select the newly created partition as the destination for Windows 10 installation. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.

    4. Install Clover Bootloader: After Windows 10 is installed, you'll need to install and configure Clover Bootloader to enable dual-booting. Clover is a bootloader that can handle both macOS and Windows on the same system. Install Clover on your macOS Mojave partition using the Clover installer package, and make sure to select the appropriate options for Legacy (MBR) booting during the installation process.

    5. Configure Clover: Once Clover is installed, you'll need to configure it to recognize both the macOS Mojave and Windows 10 installations. This involves editing the Clover configuration file (config.plist) to add the necessary boot entries for both operating systems.

    6. Test Dual-Boot: Restart your Dell N4050 laptop and you should see the Clover bootloader screen. From there, you can select either macOS Mojave or Windows 10 to boot into the respective operating system.

    Please note that the exact steps and configuration options for Clover may vary depending on your specific setup and version of Clover. It's recommended to refer to the Clover documentation or relevant online resources for detailed instructions and troubleshooting guidance specific to your situation.

    Additionally, make sure to back up your important data before proceeding with any partitioning or installation to avoid data loss in case of any unforeseen issues.
