Fire up Disk Util, Select the Drive, hit info so you can see the disk identifier number

 

disk0 is the assumed drive here make sure for yourself your messing with the right one

 

Open up terminal

 

sudo -s

 

# (This puts the primary loader in)

fdisk -u /dev/rdisk0

 

y

 

Reboot

 

Open up terminal

 

sudo -s

 

# (now we activate the boot marker for INT13)

fdisk -e /dev/rdisk0

 

f 2

 

w

 

y

 

and done.

 

ForceDeth is a story on it's own

 

Sincerely Yours,

Hey, I have an A8N-E and my forcedeth is working. I use forcedeth from TubGirl 10.4.10. Try it. If you don't have it, PM me and I send you the kext I'm using on Leopard.

 

Bye!
