pritthish Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Ive been running OSX.5.2 (Kalyway) with vista (dualboot) for about a week. Today, I just restarted my system and can't get back into leopard. I go as far as the darwin prompt where it asks me to choose the volume to boot from. I select the drive (Leo), press enter, an well, nothing happens... it sorta refreshes itself and tells me t select a volume again... I tried using the Kalyway dvd to take a disk image, but i dont have any partitions big enough for a full backup of my osx volume. I tried making a disk image of my downloads and documents folders using disk utility from the DVD, failed with error code 61... Im using a Dell Inspiron 1525 (120GB HDD, Intel GMA x3100, 1GB RAM) Any help would be greatly appreciate, I dont want to reinstall everything again from scratch :S Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/111570-leopard-suddenly-not-working/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
