QMax Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Hello, I'm also using Kalyway 10.5.1 installed on an external USB disk without problems. Try to use both (if you have it) USB connetors, I had the same problem using an old USB disk, and power from laptop was not enough to keep alive that disk during install. If you have it, try an external power supply for your disk.

QMax Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Try searching for Ultimate Boot CD on Google. If I'm not wrong, this CD boots with a lot of tools to create/modify HDD partitions. Gosh... using that disk I suppose YOU HAVE an external power source Max Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/84868-external-usb-hard-drive/#findComment-602495 Share on other sites More sharing options...
