Voytek, I'm not a Mac guy, but I think you will find that Bootcamp doesn't allow you to run Windows on MacOS but rather allows you to boot into Windows installed on a separate partition on your Intel-based Mac - a subtle but important difference. (That is, Bootcamp is akin to GRUB or LILO for Linux). I think you will need something like Parallels or Vmware Fusion to run Windows in a virtual machine while running MacOS on your Mac host machine.
