I installed the Windows 8 Developer Preview last week. It lasted about 2 days before I deleted it.
This post is NOT about Windows 8, it's about how EASY it is to test new Windows operating systems on a Bootcamp-ed Mac.
Here are the steps in their entirety:
Step 1: Get WinClone and make a backup disk image of the volume containing the current Windows operating system. This may take about an hour, and most of that will be finding WinClone. LOL.
Step 2: Install the new version of Windows/Linux over the existing Bootcamp volume: boot from the DVD and follow the instructions.
That's it. To roll-back to the previous operating system, open WinClone and restore the backup that was previously made.
Couldn't be simpler.
I just downloaded the Consumer Preview and may give it a whirl on the weekend. Reports from the web indicate there are a few changes from the Dev Prev.
