xdanisx Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Right now, I need my flash drive (with chameleon) to get into Snow Leopard. Is there anyway to install Chameleon on the hDD that 10.6 is installed on so that I can just: Boot up Change RAID to AHCI in BIOS Restart into 10.6 Thanks.

Have you tried Dr Hurt boot installer or anyone's boot installer that puts Chameleon 2.0 r 5 or ubuntu bootloader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll give that a try seeing there was an error with installing Chameleon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xdanisx Posted July 8, 2010 Author Share Posted July 8, 2010 Anyone know If I can install chameleon while installing 10.6? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBraddock Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Unless you use a distro you can't install Chamaleon during installation. Try to look into the retail installation guides, which will give you a better insight as to how to install OSX and Chameleon. Since you have a bootable flash drive, all you have to do is to follow the same steps that you'd followed while creating that usb flash drive but this time you have to install and copy all necessary kexts to the partition on which you install OSX. Then you will no londer need that usb flash drive to boot into OSX. Good Luck, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am wondering why you need to go into the BIOS and set AHCI. If you do have another on the drive, the question should be how to set up dual booting. neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to switch to RAID when booting to Win7, and switch to AHCI when booting in osx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xdanisx Posted July 9, 2010 Author Share Posted July 9, 2010 I'll get back to you on specifically what the error was. I need to install chameleon through terminal as it is the only version that supports Fermi so far and it has no installer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
