cirbic Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Hi friendsI got two hard drives. The first one (SATA) and master is where Vista is installed. In the other one (IDE, and slave) I had Tiger. I made dualboot with EasyBCD and I didn´t get any problem. All working fine. The problem with me is when I´m trying to install Leopard (Leopard TOH RC2). The fist chance I formatted Tiger and installed Leopard. Applied the patch (Brasil patch) but it didn´t found darwin. 'Googling' I read I had to install leopard over tiger without formatting. OK. Next cha e. I did it. Applied the patch again, but then I get the CHAIN BOOTING ERROR. I´ve googled a bit, but I haven´t found any solution for this. Do you know what I´ve to do? I´ve read something about an EFI patch, but I think I´ve to install Leopard first, so how could I do it? Thanks in advancePD: could I install Tiger, apply efi patch over tiger and then install leopard without patching it?Excuse me.

Mebster Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Hi, this should have been posted in OSx86 Installation: OSx86 10.5 (Leopard) where you're likely to get more help. Moved.

superfaen Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I had the same problem but I solved it somehow. I think it has to do with the order of the disks in your computer and primary vs extended partitions. Anyways, I tried switching sata cables around changing the order of the disk and suddenly it worked. You can also trie to use tboot instead of chain0. It works the same way as chain0.
