btk Posted August 1, 2007 Share Posted August 1, 2007 I had trouble w/ v1.3 and my USB controller, but the new release fixed that. I still get the errors, but the bootup doesn't halt, it just goes right along and my USB kb/ms work fine. I am having problems now w/ trying to get my parition set aside for OSX to mount in Disk Utility. I have a nForce 550 mobo and my Windows partitions on my SATA drives show up and I can see info about them, but the one I made to install on won't mount. I made it using diskpart on WinXP, and disk util sees that, but it won't mount at all. I tried using partedmagic, which is a bootable linux distro that creates hfs+ partitions, but that won't mount either. I tried using diskutil terminal commands to mount. I have tried erasing the partition, but it always hangs on the pinwheel and won't do anything after that. I would try partitioning the drive w/ Disk Utility, but I have a NTFS part w/ my media files on it and the warning said it would wipe the whole disk. And I don't have any PATA drives, because my SATA2 drives are so much faster and my old ide's died. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

StamX Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 I have the same issue. But Diskutil not freezes, it's working but says after 2-3 minutes that action timeout occured. I've also tried pdisk but the installator doesn't recognize created partitions. Are there any utils for Windows/Linux that can create Mac OSX partitions?

Lactobacillus P Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Using a JaS 10.4.7 bootdisk, with the diskutil, creating an active bootable HFS partition with that. Reset and boot from Upuck and run install. You'll have the nice little green arrow on the drive/partition you want to install OSX on Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/58649-cant-mount-partition-to-install-uphuck-v14a/#findComment-419749 Share on other sites More sharing options...
