Retail MacLeo10.5.6 burning in Windows and a lot of other problems.

[antisocialbratt]

Hi everyone,

I have a lot of problems related to OSX Leopard 10.5.6. I have downloaded a 7.3 gb file of *.dmg extension. After a lot of digging at this very forum i found bout Transmac. I used it to read the image and it worked. Then i inserted a Dual layer disc in the drive and started burning from transmac. After 20% it said burning failed,device is not ready. Well i need help on how to burn this correctly as these DL Discs doesnt come cheap.4$ a disc. So i have managed to convert this disc in iso using ultra iso.

 

So what should i do? should i try once again with trasmac with some other settings or with ultraiso

or some other software you recommend.?

 

Is there any method to split the dvd in two bootable single layer dvd's ? i read a method but it was on Mac. I need to split them in windows xp or vista. Please lemme know if there is any such method.

 

I had a 8gb pen drive. Can i create it bootable? i heard bout installing OS with pen drive so that means pen drive can be used as bootable device. Can you tell me in detail how??

 

If all these problems are over then i would like to know that which method of installing is best.

I prefer the bootloader312 method where first we have to boot with a bootloader then the retail disc. I prefer this coz in this method we can auto update too. lemme know if my pc is fixed up for this.

I have two 250gb sata hardisc. First HD has 3 partitions. XP is installed in C:, Vista is installed in D:, then there is a E: drive, I have formatted second harddisc completely. There are 3 partitions in second HD. All of there are NTFS primary partitions. Please help me guys. i would appreciate you guidance.

 

 

Thanks in Advance.  with a lot of smileys
