gritmaster Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 I installed the iATKOS leopard release onto a multi-partitoned harddrive as follows: Partition 1: Win XP, NTFS Partition 2: OS X Tiger 10.4.7, HFS This setup worked great. I wanted to keep both WinXP and 10.4.7 while I tried out 10.4.5, so using Acronis Disk Director, I added a new HFS partition at the end of the drive, so my new partition scheme looks like this: Partition 1: Win XP, NTFS Partition 2: OS X Tiger 10.4.7, HFS Partition 3: Leopard/iATKOS, HFS I used Acronis Disk Director to set the partition type of my Partition 3 to 0xAF type and then erased the drive during the install process of iATKOS using DIsk Utility. The install went great - I installed EFI. However, when using the Boot Manager from 10.4.7 on partition 2 (partition 2 is set Active), and I hit F8 to bring up the Operating System Selection screen, and select Leopard, I briefly see the gray Apple Logo screen then the system reboots. 10.4.7 and WinXP still boot fine when they are selected. Booting with -V doesn't help b/c the reboot happens so quickyl I can't make out what the first few lines of text are. The system is an Acer Aspire 3680 laptop with CeleronM and GMA950 - works great in 10.4. Does my issue have something to do with the partitioning scheme or EFI?

stealth Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 iATKOS only works with intel core-based processors, no?
