Hi all I am hoping somebody can give me a quick fix I have been using Tiger, Leopard and Snow Leopard for years now. Now as of last night I can not boot back into my install, it seems that the boatloader has been corrupted whilst trying to merge a test partition with the main partition, using iPartition. I am desperate to rectify this, I am running a retail install 10.6.4 and have not had any real problems at all. I can boot into my installs by inserting an iatkos 10.6.3 distro as it allows me at boot time to select my existing Snow leopard install. I realize this is an elementary problem that I should know the answer to, but I confess I havent had to change things for quite a while and I would really appreciate the help to fix my bootloader asap. Hoping for a speedy reply, cheers mates, Plucka

If your /Extra folder and its contents is intact, just manually reinstall Chameleon to the same place where it was before.

Hey thanks for your advice Gringo Vermelho, is it in the extra folder, I dont see it there I used the MYHACK install method. Do you have another idea for me? Should I download the latest version and install that?

 

Thankyou for your advice, cheers mate, Plucka

I'm not familiar with myhack, sorry.

 

You could probably just run the installer:

Hey Gringo Vermelho, thanks a bunch mate, this did the trick all working once more, just installed the Chameleon on the Snow Leopard drive and rebooted, and we are back in business. Thanks mate cheers, Plucka
