jackmanfred Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Is it possible to install any version of osx86 from hdd without the use of a dvd drive? I was wondering if anybody has managed to do this. Thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/15570-install-from-hdd/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackmanfred Posted April 20, 2006 Author Share Posted April 20, 2006 Ok does anybody know how to get a P5LD2-VM to install osx86 without using the primary ide channel as mine is broken. If i use any other ide channel other than the red one it comes up with a SAM Multimedia error. Hence the question before?

moseschrist Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 exactly what i'm trying to figure out... i have tried extracting the image into partition but it didn't work... got a messege to remove any removable disks and reboot or something like that... i guess the extraction didn't work quite well, either i'm extracting it wrong or it isn't possible... and nothing is impossible... the things i do for an OS that doesn't even support my wireless network...
