scv311us Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 This is from a noob to a noob, easy install tip. Mother Board: GA-MA69GM-S2H (S-Series) SATA WD HDD : SATA DVD -R/+R DL Pioneer If your want to install osx leopard, take it from me. RUN SATA HDD & SATA DVD, all Problems Gone. I spent 3 weeks, installing various versions, and configurations. before i got a SATA HDD. My original config was. IED HDD (WesternDigital Sucks cause Use have to use the jumpers.) - Sata DVD. I actually found the right setings ONCE installed and everything was a OK, then i USED the BOOT 123 ruined my video settings, went to reinstall. Never again, could i find the right config. So i went to best buy bought a new powersupply so i could have more then 1 sata power outlet. Exchanged my MAC formatted HDD for a new SATA HDD (good luck best buy - dont put that fella back on the shelf. a windows guru may buy it & be upset he cant format it. Even with Norton Partition shows up yellow as baddisk, but i could reuse and reuse with a mac.) Installed the new power supply, Plugged HDD as 1st Primary Master, DVD as 2nd Master, put the iDeneb DVD in. viola! The install, and everything else was smooth as {censored}! SO, for everyone saying iDENEB doesnt see my HDD. GO SATA. I had all your issues, all fixed with all sata. Just a quick tip - from a noob to a noob. 3 weeks wasted writing down, documenting every shape and form of configuration.The Leo4all Lawless version worked best with IED HDD and SATA DVD. But once you run ideneb. its the most complete and packed version, supporting everything. Good job iDeneb Team. So you know what they say. One you go MAC, You never go back! Mr.Phil The Photo was taken after my rottie and I installed 100% functioning iDeneb 10.5.5 we partied a bit.
