[Help] Strange problem with external HDD


1 post in this topic

Recommended Posts

Hi, i've manage to install Lion on an external HDD and make it works almost perfectly (only wifi doesn't work, but i'm going to buy a Dell card) on my father's notebook (it's an Acer 6920G, Intel C2D T8100, nVidia 9500GS), but now i need to move the installation on my external HDD a Western Digital My Passport USB 3.0 because the other drive belong to my father and him want it back. So i use Disk Utility from the installation drive and restore the partition on my drive but i've got some problem in doing it: when first i boot in Chameleon with both the external drives connect to PC it showed:

ebios read error: device timeout

block 0x0 sectors 0

and so for 4 times, but then it boots and all went fine, after the process i boot again with Chameleon but i cant see the drive, i thought of conflicts between the two drive and i decide to boot with the old drive and install Chameleon on the second one. Done i boot just with the second HDD connect and select boot from it, Chameleon don't boot and all i got is:

Operating system not found

and i can just do ctrl + alt + canc to reboot.

In Lion i can see both the drives and tried to install Chameleon 3 times now, always with same result. I googled but i cant find a solution, anyone can help me?

Thanks in advance.
