RockoTDF Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 I am unable to get YDL 4.1 to install to my firewire drive as advertised. I type install firewire at the prompt and the firewire drive does not come up in the list of hard disks to edit in disk druid. I have looked all over the internet and cannot find any instructions that work unless it means resizing my internal HFS HD, which I do not want to do. I find it incredibly frustratiing that terrasoft makes a big deal out of the firewire thing and then it doesnt friggin work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockoTDF Posted July 18, 2006 Author Share Posted July 18, 2006 So now it sees the firewire drive. But it refuses to reformat it on grounds that it contains the "apple partition map" even after I plugged into a PC and reformatted it there! So now it sees the firewire drive.

bwhsh8r Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Use Hard drive killer pro (pm me for link) and/ only use gparted or PartEd (never used that one) on it for all your hard drive partitioning needs... gparted is a live cd so thats all good btw. max ps thats odd, you must have some reminants from the apple partition record...
