-tanner- Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 So, for a while i've had Windows Vista and Linux Mint 8 dual-booting on my computer. Vista had crashed a while ago and finally died (file system is shot to hell) a few days ago. When Vista died it also happened to take out Linux in the process. I've also had Mac OS X Tiger sitting nicely beside them, however I couldn't boot into it (the Vista bootloader couldn't boot it). After Vista/Linux died I decided to re-install Linux and low and behold the bootloader found Mac OS X Tiger and added it to the list of bootable OS's (it didn't include Vista). However, when I try to boot Mac I instantly get a kernel panic I've had Tiger working smoothly on this comp before too. Any ideas? (btw, the bootloader for Mac, Chameleon, doesn't recognize Linux) My comp's specs are: CPU - Intel Mobile Dual Core 1.46 ghz GFX - Intel Mobile 965 Chipset RAM - 1000 mb's (0.99gb lol) HDD - 168 gb Also, my drive is partitioned as such: (according to KDE Partition Manager) /dev/sda1 - ntfs - Recovery - 7.37 GiB /dev/sda2 - ntfs - Vista - 91.30 GiB /dev/sda3 - Extended - 48.27 GiB /dev/sda5 - hfsplus - Mac OS X Tiger - 19.99 GiB /dev/sda6 - ext4 - Linux Mint 8 - 27.06 GiB /dev/sda7 - linuxswap - Linux Swap - 1.21 GiB unallocated - unknown - 2.11 GiB (used to be Linux Swap) You may have noticed that sda3 isn't labelled and the next 3 partitions are under it. For whatever reason, sda5-7 are all connected to eachother. I didn't think you could that but I guess so lol. I even uploaded a pic to help show what i mean lol. The purple on the left is the Recovery, the pink in some of the partitions is used space. As you can see, sda5-7 are outlined in teal, connecting them together. Also, I've tried to extend sda6 to include the 2 gigs of unallocated space but it refuses to, because they are connected. So yea, any help is appreciated! ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
