Shanems3 Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 the bo error usually is tied to a partitioning problem.. do you have the Partition style to MBR and not GUID? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
advil0 Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 1. Boot your Mac OS X install dvd 2. Once the installer is running, go to the Utilities menu and open Terminal 3. Determine which disk your MacOSX partition is on Type diskutil list Verify which disk number holds your partition (disk 0 , disk 1 , etc.) 4. Start using Fdisk Assuming the MacOSX disk is the first disk ("disk0"), then type fdisk -e /dev/rdisk0 <== use "rdisk" with your disk number here !! Ignore the error "fdisk: could not open MBR file ..." 5. Determine which partition for MacOSX needs to be set "Active" Type p Verify which partition is for MacOSX (1, 2, 3, etc.) 6. Set the partition "Active" Assuming it is partition 1, then type f 1 <== use your partition number here !! 7. Save and exit Type write Type y (yes you are sure) Type exit (to quit) 8. Remove the install DVD and reboot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snackhat Posted October 11, 2007 Author Share Posted October 11, 2007 thx alot, the boot without DVD is working. I got a minor problem, how do I type @? my alt is my "command key" and works for all other things, but not to type special characters. how do I fix it? the 2 audio errors is: 1 - "System extension cannot be used The system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/AppleAC97Audio.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update." 2 - "System extension cannot be used The system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/AppleAC97Audio.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleAC97AudioIntelICH.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product's vendor for an update." why do they pop-up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
