CybranSeraphim Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 Hey, After three tries with different combinations of drivers, I finally managed to get OS X running as a secondary operating system on my PC, using iPC 10.5.6. Once I got into it and got everything working perfectly, I went to install the iPhone 3.0 SDK, as that was my main motivation for doing OSx86 in the first place. I get the dreaded notification that the iPhone SDK now only runs on 10.5.7. I performed a full backup via Time Machine, and then downloaded and installed the iDeneb Combo Upgrade Kit for 10.5.7. After rebooting, my computer wouldn't load OSx86. I get an error saying that the system can't find "com.apple.boot.plist". I booted from my iPC disc and restored my Time Machine backup, but the error remains. Is there any way to circumvent this so I don't have to lose my OSx86 installation, or is it already too far gone if I'm getting this error? Thanks, - Phil Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/174548-boot-error-after-using-ideneb-combo-upgrade-kit-on-ipc-1056/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

CybranSeraphim Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 Doesn't anyone have a suggestion? Or would I be better off just reinstalling everything from scratch?

Daveta Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 you have to reinstall boot loader; restart with dvd (NO a new installation), install osx86tools and install bootloader...or just download chameleon installer, and run it.

CybranSeraphim Posted July 18, 2009 Author Share Posted July 18, 2009 I'm confused ... I have OSx86 Tools, but how do I access my defunct installation using the DVD? And can I install the bootloader for the Mac partition only (so it DOESN'T overwrite the system bootloader)?

Daveta Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 simply leave dvd run and hd installation go straight, but if the installer run, reset it Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/174548-boot-error-after-using-ideneb-combo-upgrade-kit-on-ipc-1056/#findComment-1203137 Share on other sites More sharing options...
