nub Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Do partitions have to be in a certain order? Like mac partition coming before extended? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40048-partitioning/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 not realy. But is preferably that you use Primary partitions vs logical/extended. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40048-partitioning/#findComment-285932 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nub Posted January 27, 2007 Author Share Posted January 27, 2007 Do you know why this won't work? I had unallocated space on my hard drive. Used diskpart create partition primary size=xxxx id=af Popped in install dvd (takes forever to start up, probably my slow dvd rom) Went to Disk Utilities and formated it (might not have done this correctly. selected mac os (journaled) and hit erase) went through the install used chain0 and added it to boot.ini selected mac osx on menu and it i get "chain booting error" Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/40048-partitioning/#findComment-285941 Share on other sites More sharing options...
