Magice Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Trying to install leo flat on my p5b. I have a Vista partition, and a 20gb id=af partition. Tried dd if=leopard-x86-flat-img of=\\?\Device\Harddisk0\Partition2 bs=32256 skip=1 --progress and dd if=leopard-x86-flat-img of=\\?\Device\Harddisk0\Partition2 bs=5M --progress - It might have been harddrive1, i can't remember. Well it copied successfully, and when I boot into the new partition it says No Operating System Have I DD'd onto the wrong disk/part or would it error me if it doesn't exist? My destination in disk part is disk 0 partition 2. I have also tried switching from IDE to AHCI (bluescreens me on vista) What have I done wrong?

yaemish Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 I had the same problem as you. It wasn't until I moved all my data off the drive (I said drive not partition) and trashed the entire drive; was I able to install. Meaning there was no partition on my second drive. Once I did that, the flat image install took. The flat image installs Leopard and creates a partition, then you need to go back and create a partition out of the unused space.
