Gibson98 Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Hi,I'm a newbie to MACs and i thought I'd have ago at installing Iatkos. I formatted my partition into HFS+ and it said it installed successfully. When I reboot it loads up acronis boot manager and says I can load either vista or "Unknown operating system" I try to but the later but it comes up with an error.I then went to the Mac terminal and looked at diskutil and tried mounting the MAC partition there. It mounted it... I then typed "Diskutil info /dev/disk0s2" And it showed info on the partition etc...One thing that caught my eye was "Bootable: Not Bootable"Does anyone have any ideas please?Oh and my PC supports SSE2 and SSE3 Many thanks Joe I have just found this: When I go to install the EFI I get all the way up to "EFI emulation selected. For Intel CPUS, you can select kernel in customize selection... etc etc"It then says "Are you sure? [Y/N]" I press Y and then it says installing... then i get this hdiutil:unmount:"s2" failed to unmount due to error 2.hdiutil:unmount failed - No such file or directorystartupfiletool: opendev(s2): No such file or directorydd: s2: Read-only file systemhdiutil:mountvol failed - No such file or directoryYou can quit the terminal.osx.Turk teamlogout[Process completed] I also get the same on another computer so it must be me!

Hope thats some more helpa Joe Hi Joe, Even i am a new bee in this mac installation.. But any way i have compleated to some extend, The reason you are getting this message cause you have not selected the right HD Before you try to install the darwin boot you should note down your HD No and the partition that MAC needs to be installed. open up a terminal and then type and enter. diskutil list this will show you which is your HD no and partition no.
