Hi,

 

I have a SATA drive that had Ubuntu + Vista with Grub as the boot loader. I've now formated that hard drive NTFS.

 

So, using a separate IDE drive with XP installed, I'm installing 10.4.10 via VMware. The problem is that when I reboot with my SATA drive as master, Grub still comes up.

 

Is there any way to get darwin to overwrite grub?

 

Thanks.

 

Edit:

 

Solved the problem. I reinstalled following these steps.

 

Enter disk utility to create partition table. (Utilities -> Disk Utility):

a. Select drive to install onto.

b. Click the "Partition" tab and configure partition table like so:

> 1 Partition, Mac OS Extended (Journaled)

c. Label the disk... 'Macintosh HD' is the preferred disk label.

d. Hit the "Partition" button and exit Disk Utility.

Activate the OS X partition:

a. Open the Terminal to activate the partition. (Utilities -> Terminal)

b. Use the fdisk tool in Terminal as follows:

> fdisk -e /dev/rdisk0

> f 1

> write

> y

> exit

c. Quit Terminal and return to Installer.
