mike200015 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Hi, I installed OS X 10.4.6, and when i try to run it without the cd, i get a black screen with a flashing cursor. When I boot up the cd and type in rd=disk0s2 into the "boot:" area, then it will load OS X, this gets anoying tho. How do i load up OS X without needing to use the cd ?? Please Help Thanks, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammjet Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I believe you need to set your OSX partition "Active". Here is one way: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=22844 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JHO Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I beleive that if you boot into OSX and edit the boot.plist file to automatically boot with that config then it should do it for you. I can't remember specifics but it worked for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
