Krishna21 Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 I heard OSx86's (Or atleast Kalyway 10.5.2's in my case) installer will not boot without a SATA DVD Drive. Which I don't have, I have a Lite-On DVD Burner..in IDE interface. Now, I heard there was a patch you burn with your DVD, but I can't gind it, I even googled it, nothing, does anyone have the link or T0RR3N7? Please help, thanks!!

vilpostus Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Nonsense! I have done all my install with IDE drives. On the contrary it may be some troubles with a SATA drives. Though everything depends on specific hardware and BIOS setting. Also master/salve connection is important.

Check if the drive is connected as primary/master IDE device. Check jumper settings on the device itself. As for BIOS. Try enabling/disabling ACHI mode (not sure if your motherboard has such function).
