Installing Windows 7 without a SuperDrive in Boot Camp on 2010 MBP

Solution 1:

Only way I was able to was by reinstalling the super drive I spent more time looking for a work around then the time it took to move the ssd to the hard drive location and reinstalling the super drive.

Sorry.

Solution 2:

So, I just broke down and installed rEFIt. It actually worked - I could boot off of the Windows USB key and install. After installation, I immediately removed rEFIt, and everything seems to be working correctly after that. I doubt this is a 100% will work in every case procedure, but so far things seem to be back to normal.
