Cirenj Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 I finally got OSX (JaS patched) to see my harddrive...it starts installing with no problems up until the last 10% or so. When it gets that far it tells me that it has encountered an error and cannot continue, Is there anyway that I can actually see the error so I can post it on here for a diagnostic fix or no. The only thing that I was thinking is that there may be a few bad sectors on my HD. Would that cause the problem and if so would reformatting it for windows and doing a scandisk on it fix the problem Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/7831-installs-to-90/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainkp Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 I ran into problems like this. I burned the ISO again and tried it, and it worked like a charm. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/7831-installs-to-90/#findComment-49470 Share on other sites More sharing options...
