twobadfish Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I am having the same problem. I am considering formatting the drive, but the only way I know is with DOS (FAT, NTFS). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Baron Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Get the Ultimate Boot CD, boot it up and format your drive FAT-32 - this will enable OS X and Disk Utility to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobadfish Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 Ok I figured it out. When the dialog to select your destination drive comes up, click on 'Utilities' then 'Disk Utility' on the taskbar at the top of the screen. In my case, I selected erase and it automatically created an HFS (mac file system) partition. Post back if it works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knifeyspoony Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 MarthaTillman, I haven't been able to find an install disc with support for the SB600 chipset in SATA mode. You may be able to get OS X to recognize your hard drive, though, if you are able to toggle it to legacy mode in your BIOS. (Wish my BIOS had that option!) -ks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitBaXeMan Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I'm using the same dvd, and I'm at the same spot, except that when I select the appropriate drive, it tells me I have insufficient privileges to erase it. All options that say "repair permissions" are greyed out and unavailable. I'm stuck... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
