Hi guys , it finally worked on ma system(it has to be) .

this is how i made my system triple boot windows7/ windows Vista/leopard10.5.7(iatkos_v7).

I had windows7 and WinVIsta already installed on c and e drives repectively, and i wanted to install Leopard without formatting the HardDisk.

Hope this one works for you too.

May be, this will help you.

i was facing the booting problem.

i assume u want a dualboot/multiboot system.

 

 

---------------------------------------------------------

 

 

Requirements:

1. windows installation dvd.(to repair boot record)

2)live cd/usb like ubuntu 9.10 or 9.04.(any live cd/usb which have gparted in it).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Procedure:

1)boot with windows Cd to fix boot file damages(if any ) made by previous iatkos installations.(this step can be skipped)

2)prepare a partition min 8GB from your primary partition.(best way of douing is by using gparted.)

3)format it with hfs+(can be done only by using gparted).

4)shift boot flag to this newly made partition.(using gparted in ubuntu). (this step is to be done only if you are not successful without this step, so first try without this step).

 

5)install iatkos on this newly made partition with ur custom settings.

6)run ubuntu live and change boot flag as it was earlier.

7)boot with windows dvd and reapair using startup repair.

8)shift boot flag to your partition on which osx86/iatkos is installed(using gparted).

and reboot.

9)I used a few Kexts to enable Native Resolution,Volume control,Bluetooth working on my 1545.(only needed if you are on DELLL 1545.)

-------------------------------------------------------------

Observation:

Got leopard Working. :)

 

hope this will help you.

gud luk.
