demonio Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 After trying to find out how to boot my newly brewed osx86, followed by tuning it to fit my hardware, there comes this annoying problem with booting the system without the installation DVD. What I really do not need is a dual boot system, as I finally found OS X to fully fit my needs. And that come after years of Linux and Windows testing. The other problem consist in activating the Extended Desktop on my other LCD monitor with ATI X1300 Pro, but I left it for some other time. I tried to hold down several keys (C, option, shift, etc.) to enter some boot up option menus, without result. Startup Disk utility sees only the "Network drive" which i dont have. The same thing with starting the live system from DVD. Reparing the Mac OS X partition results in "No repair needed". I have only one Seagate 120 GB disk, with three HSF+ journaled partitions, on Intel D975XBX with SSE3, 10.4.8 JaS OSX86. If somebody fixed this boot problem, I would appreciate some tip. Thank You for reading my post. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/48338-boot-without-dvd/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
