mikeytjee Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 Hey! I just had that happen to me! It came up with that exact same message when I selected the optical drive with the install DVD in it... I expected my install HD to be d2s1 (disk 2, partition 1) when I booted off the DVD in single user mode. NOPE - it moved the install HD to "3" - the DVD-ROM was "2". When in fdisk you can always check by using the "p" or "print" command. It'll list the partitions and how they're formatted. So, you can: fdisk -e /dev/rdisk0 p (this will show the partition structure for disk 0) // wrong drive?: // abort (will exit fdisk without making any changes) you can start over again: fdisk -e /dev/rdisk1 p (correct disk this time:) update f 1 w q reboot I DIDNT NEED THIS !!!! i installed 10.4.8 again, then i installed zephyroth AMD leoapard and now im typing my post from it ty guys and especially you cqsheen!! now i only need to fix sound..
