I have a problem during the installation with the Disk Utility. When I trie to format appears this message "ERROR: Insufficient privileges".

 

My HD is sata, has it any relantioship with the error?

 

I´m using JaS.Mac.OS.X.10.4.8.AMD.Intel.SSE2.SSE3.PPF.1.

 

I read the forum and used the search, but i didn´t find any solution.

 

Thanks everybody.

Hi there!

I'm encountering the same error when trying to install any version of OSx86 with VMWare.

The weird thing is: It worked with an earlier install of Windows XP. The problem was that the partition OSx86 was installed on was part of the extended partition, so it didn't boot. Therefore I repartitioned and reinstalled Windows.

I, too, have a SATA HD with independent-persistent selected in VMWare. It works neither when selecting the whole HD, nor when only selecting the partition OSX should be installed on.

 

Any clues..?
