Jaygrim Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Well some time last year I managed to get 10.4 running on my old rig. So I decided to get 10.5 a try on my new rig, to my surprise it actually went to the install screen. Firstly I used Disk Utility tool on the DVD to erase my 200GB sata HDD, and used the "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" setting and everything installed fine. I used the "Zephyroth AMD 10.5.2 Rev.1" DVD. Now.. the problem I had before was "Error Loading Operating System" i tried the "cat /usr/standalone/i386/boot0 > dev/rdisk#s#" thing and it didn't do anything. I reinstalled and now whenever I try to boot into OSX, all I get is a flashing underscore. No errors, no restarts, just a flashing underscore. EDIT: I've tried the Making Mac partition bootable commands: sudo -s fdisk -e /dev/rdiskX --->(X is the number of your HD, if you have only on its 0) update f X --->(X is the number of the partition where you installed Leopard) w q reboot but that didn't fix it =/ SPECS: Asrock ALiveXFire-eSATA2 AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 5000+ Black Edition 2.60GHz (Socket AM2) OCZ 4GB (2x2GB) PC2-6400C5 Dual Channel Vista Gold Series DDR2 (8GB soon) Sapphire's Radeon X800GT IDE Vistax32 40GB, SATA Backup 500GB, SATA OSX86 INSTALL 200GB Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/109778-unable-to-boot-into-osx/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
