χ86 Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 Here is my scenario: - I have JaS 10.4.7 On A CD-R - I boot it and get onto install menu - I customize install with the patches I need. - I install it - I remove the JaS 10.4.7 disk - I restart computer - OS X Boots up - All of a sudden it tells me that I havent got a keyboard! - I understand that and realise that all that I need to do is install the driver. But at that stage it is impossible. - OS X Will only boot once though. When it boots up, And I restart it wont boot again. - I restart computer and normal routine occurs, Acronis OS selector. - OS 1 = Windows XP Pro SP3 OS 2 = "Unknown OS" - If I try and boot "Unknown OS" it will say something like "Invalid HFS Partition" WTF?! I spend one hour installing OS X just for Acronis to tell me it isnt a valid Operating System and then not boot it.. What has gone wrong?

tomozj Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 The installer disk boots, but not the installed OS. Why is this? What 'patches' does the installer disk carry? -tj Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/31373-confusing/#findComment-218687 Share on other sites More sharing options...
