TimeShift Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Hello, I managed to have a fully working install of Snow Leopard and sucessfully updated it to 10.6.2, but the chamaleon bootloader, try to boot the iATKOS partition first, so I want to know how do I make chamaleon boot my Snow partition. And, I have to boot always with -f flag to have video working, how do I make chamaleon to auto-load with this flag? Thanks in advance!

TimeShift Posted December 21, 2009 Author Share Posted December 21, 2009 Thanks for the help, but the: <key>Default Partition</key> <string>hd(0,3)</string> Its not working, my SNOW partition is disk0s3, so I put hd(0,3) but now the boot menu appears to select one of the partitions, and the partition that is selected first is SNOW but its not automatic booting it with those 5 seconds before booting the partition.
