''the underlaying task reported an error on exit''

the hd i try to erase is formatted as FAT32 primary!

im using the amdtest 10.4.10 installer but also tried 10.4.8 jas

same error :D any solutions?

 

Hi,

are you on nForce S-ATA disks?

 

In that case catch up on this thread: Darwin nForce4 ATA/SATA controller

 

Cheers,

:D today ive bought a IDE PATA HD 40GB to install osx but will osx see my sata drivers 1s installed and can i write to them like saving documents and stuff

 

Hi,

ok, good, I guess you are one step ahead on the OsX86 road now :-)

 

Regarding, "see my sata-drives": it all depends on your SATA-controller, it may work it may not work.

 

Take some time and read through the thread above to gain experiences from various stories of success or failure.

 

You may also want to keep an eye on disk throughput of the IDE-drive since some people had problems there too.

 

Cheers,
