GWolfman Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Hey, I wanted to test OS X without messing with my current drive configuration on my Asus P5W DH Deluxe, so I plugged in my USB drive, and installed 10.5.2. After I hit restart it tries to boot but restarts after a second or two after it passes the Darwin bootloader screen. I hit F8, and -s (for safe mode?) but it still reboots. Any ideas? Do I have to install it onto a SATA drive directly attached to my board? Also, what options do I need to select/deselect on the customize menu. For example, I didn't see anywhere to select which EFI I wanted to use (MBR, GUID). Is this automatic? Thanks! -GWolfman Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/100759-install-to-usb-drive-supported/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
