andrean Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 Ok, now I understand. You must install a bootloader, Chameleon for example. You can start by making a usb stick and booting with that. When you are sure you know how to use Chameleon then you can install it to hard disk. Thank you very much! Loading from a disk works very well! please teach me how to do downloading from HDD....

mm67 Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Thank you very much! Loading from a disk works very well! please teach me how to do downloading from HDD.... Use this installer to install Chameleon. Chameleon_2_RC3.zip Then extract this to /Extra folder Archive.zip Please try to install to a usb stick first and try booting with it. If everything works then you can install to hdd.
