you can dual boot, but not via haret, perhaps in the future but idoubt it since magldr makes it quite easy as is, now what woud be useful is dual boot wp7 and WM6.5,

Hey, you know that you have to edit sth in your android build? You can't just copy an sd build and boot it with magldr...
This thread is a good intro:

I have nand wp7 and sd android, partition the tf, two partitions 12GB fat32 for android, 2GB for wp7(unformatted fat16). The magldr can't recognize my card(I can not set the android folder and find this problem). I find a way to solve: take out the card and then push into phone again when in the magldr. But this way makes me crazy because everytime I restart the phone I must do the thing above again or I can't use the card in wp7 even can't boot the sd android.
Can someone help me to avoid this, thx first
Hello guys.
I have a HTC HD2 running Windows Phone 7 (on MagLdr 1.2).
I want to DualBoot Android AND WPH. Ive watched a tut on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTHRAUHZHlo
I did exactly the same and after that i took this Android DesireHD Built: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881937
It worked fine but android said, that there isnt a sd card in the device. Of course it is, cuz android boots from the sd card. When i remove my sd card, android freezes (of course). I tried to restart and i put the 512 MB data.img in the folder but there was the same problem again..
I tried it with an other card and i pushed the button "mount sd card"
and than it said "u can take out the sd card now" (or something like that)
Plz help me!
I am having the exact same problem. Have you found the problem/solution to it.
thanks.
you both update you magldr that should fix your issues.
so get newest radio, than flsh magldr 1.3
before you update make a complete backup!!
hope you both have the right partition layout on sd card.
(first partition must be fat32 second ext3 or ext4)
hope this helps.
for tut look at forums or pm me!!
Can someone describe the exact steps that are required to mount the SD card when the Android build is being run off the SD card using MAGLDR.

They are running Android from their SD card. It is not going to show a SD card being in the device because Android thinks the SD card is the device......

This will not help them at all, MAGLDR just serves as the bootloader for Android not the OS.
Allso you can not remove your SD card will booted into Android if you are using a SD card build it is running of the SD card not NAND.

So basically I cannot mount the SD card, no matter how it is formatted ?
I totally have this same problem. Neither WP7 or Droid will read the 16 GB card I'm using to run Droid. I think I'm using the DesireHD build also, maybe its that? I can probably see if changing it makes a difference.
I have the same problem. First time i installed WP7 and android, everything was working fine. Then i had to reset WP7 because it kept freezing, i followed the same steps again to dual boot with android and it booted fine but SD CARD is not mounted for some reason. I have tried 3 different android builds with same problem. Any help or tutorials?

This happened to me too with two SD cards. What I did was I run the Partition SD Card from AD Recovery. I forgot the partition layout, just find something that works for you. I was surprised that it has successfully created a partition...this erased everything so I needed to re-copy ROM files to SD card via Card Reader on my PC.
When I did it over, It finally worked. Am now running Sensation XL ROM.

Preparing to update to WP7.8 v.8.6 from 8.5. Looking for an answer to this question too.
you cant change WP7 without flashing
flashing WP7 delete all partitions from sdcard...
better way is to use 2 sdcard... cards work much faster and stable...
i use this
one card prepared for Native SD with EXT4 and use for Android
second card use for WP7...
i installed wp7 on hd2, and i don't have recovery now (for install android in another sd card)
if i install recovery i will lose wp partition, so how do this?
in practice i want use wp7 in nand with sd card 1, and use android in native sd on sdcard 2
let me know please

this had me going for a while.
search for the ext4 recovery version for sd card.
with madldr you set the boot folder to ext4 and boot into recovery from there.
i have windows 7 in nand, and 1 sd card with 'sd android | ext4 data | windows 7' which i find easier although you need 2 cards to set it up anyway.
ok thanks
check out one of the links below, you can have WP7 in nand & Anroid NativeSD with EXT4 on one SD card.
