thegodfaza Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Anyone know of an app that will do this. I hate booting from the DVD to get into leopard. I know there is another post similar to this one but no one has answered for several days so I thought i'd make a new one.

thegodfaza Posted November 21, 2007 Author Share Posted November 21, 2007 I have tried using a bootable disk thats supposed to do it for you and it didn't work. I also tried a terminal command "sudo bless -device /dev/diskXsx -setBoot –verbose" and that didn't work. Someone else said to use the install dvd but I made my dvd and it doesn't have the file on it. Any one KNOW how to put a bootloader on the leopard drive.

wlfdgcrkz Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 What version of disk utility did you use to format the drive prior to installation. If you did not use a patched version of disk utility to format that startup volume then you may have problems every booting to it. It terms of your dvd not installing the botloader I do not think thats possible. But hey what do I know.
