Mohamed Khairy Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 well the ubuntu disk does boot and also windows 7 from MB manual If you use a SATA optical drive to run the OS installation disk, we strongly recommend that you install the optical dirve to the SATA connectors 5/6 and set them to [iDE] mode. so connect HDD to sata 1 and DVD to sata 6 good luck Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/227592-amd-and-retail-snow-leopard-1065-1068-finalguide/page/22/#findComment-1568715 Share on other sites More sharing options...

carloskillix Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 one people faced this problem and when he made as i told you it goes to chamelon Thanks now i can boot to thee boot cd and OSX installation. The problem was the external Hard Disk. Which i disabled. Also set the DVD-Drive to be CD-rom Mode. Now when i try to install on my Hard Disk (internal) Mac OSX does not see my HDD. Could this be maybe because it is connected with IDE and using VIA controller for it to work. IS there a fix for this? Probably though i will buy a new SATA Hard DISk Thanks Carloskillix Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/227592-amd-and-retail-snow-leopard-1065-1068-finalguide/page/22/#findComment-1568752 Share on other sites More sharing options...
