norcalrivercat Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 I think your only hope is to try a different disk. I had the same problem with Kalyway, so I used Zephyroth, but since you have Intel I'd reccomend Iatkos. But the root device seems pretty permanent, I don't think you can do much besides try something else. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filip007 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Your Lite-On DVD is SATA ? put converter on it SATA->IDE... It worked for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
