Aramis51 Posted April 20, 2007 Author Share Posted April 20, 2007 Nop !!!! My HP is sse2 that is not the problem .... I have tried on a XW8000 instead and it does show a partition .... So , something is locking my ATA bus on my XW8200 I think ....

peterr Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 I've got 2 HDD one 200gb with win on it and the other 80 gb with ubuntu linux on it. When i switch off the windows hdd there are on disks shown in mac os installation, but when I switch it on they appear only in disk utility and no formating or mounting is possible but mount button is active and it is kinda frustrating Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/48928-do-not-see-an-ide-drive-in-the-install-window/#findComment-350560 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aramis51 Posted April 20, 2007 Author Share Posted April 20, 2007 I got my XW8000 loaded with MacOsx 2.4.8 ...... You need the futur partition not fomatted at all for the installer to show you that disk portion which you can erase and format hfs+ Aramis Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/48928-do-not-see-an-ide-drive-in-the-install-window/#findComment-350680 Share on other sites More sharing options...
