HP_otaku Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 hey there, i am using a HP z800 and i am very happy with my setup, it was totally vanilla to install 10.8.5 and it is vanilla with 10.9.1, but i am really struggeling with 10.9.5. I managed it to get mavericks running with installing 10.9.1 first and then update to 10.9.5. I am using my install usb stick to boot into 10.9.5 and it is all working fine, but the moment i install a boot loader on my harddrive it will not boot anymore, saying no root drive. Any ideas what went wrong or is there a recommendet boot loader for my z800. I already did like 20 installations so far and i am getting nuts. any help appreciated. thx Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/302054-hp-z800-and-1095-bootloader/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pimentel Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 Hello Strange!!! But you need install Bootloader in hardrive... What bootloader are you using? Chameleon or Clover?
