donaldj Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 Apologies if this is a noob-esque question, for see, I am a noob. Now, I installed Kalyway's Leopard 10.5.2 on a partition on my HDD (format to the 'Extended (Journaled)' format), and patched up my Vista's bootloader with the DVD so I could use EasyBCD to set up my Dual-Booting needs. So thats all hunky dorey... I google about, find the 'Chain0' method, and give it a spin. I end up with this setup (taken from EasyBCD)... NOTE: I also have the chain0 file in the root of C:\ There are a total of 2 entries listed in the Vista Bootloader. Bootloader Timeout: 15 seconds. Default OS: Windows Vista Entry #1 Name: Windows Vista BCD ID: {current} Drive: C:\ Bootloader Path: \Windows\system32\winload.exe Windows Directory: \Windows Entry #2 Name: Mac OS X Leopard BCD ID: {d849e58c-60e1-11dd-8b3b-001731786a13} Drive: C:\ Bootloader Path: \chain0 Windows Directory: \Windows It Looks ok, so I reboot, to test out what'll happen. I select the "Mac OS X Leopard" selection, and it pulls up what appears to be the darwin bootloader, it goes through about 10 lines of text, then my computer restarts itself. I'm confused at this point. I try it again, and at the darwin bootloader I quickly hit F8, and it asks me which partition I want to boot from. I select the 'Leopard' partition. Same thing.... it restarts. Any help? -- I ended up doing a fresh installation. While reinstalling, I figured out I had selected 2 patches that weren't supposed to be used together, and I also selected a different kernel. So it's on of those two things (or both) that fixed my problem.... Now if I can only get sound, and network working.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
