buneech Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 I have a Dell Inspiron 6400 and i had a working dual boot system: WinXP and MacOS X 10.4.4 now i tried to install 10.4.6, 10.4.7 and 10.4.8 ... and it didn't work out as planned... with 10.4.4 everything worked flawlessly...the darwin bootloader worked, i also had the chain0 method with WinXP working... and now when i installed any of the newer version, if i put the mac partition active, it just says hfs+ partition error, if i put the winXP partition as active and try to load os X from there...in just kicks back to os select screen ... can somebody help me in advising what to do from here... thanks in advance Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/42795-hfs-partition-error-after-instalation-no-boot/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
asap18 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 search around, i think you might need to change your partition ID. to 0xAF Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/42795-hfs-partition-error-after-instalation-no-boot/#findComment-305976 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apple Freak Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 If you start your computer with -v, you should see USB: Will be loaded across sleep (Or something like that) But about the dmg, man, that's wierd, and I can't help you there...
