SticMAC™ Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 You should repartition in MacOS if you have done this with another OS, then format in diskutility SticMAN Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/84874-help-unable-to-erase-disc/#findComment-602532 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SticMAC™ Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 everything is done in diskutility, when you boot from the dvd, on the same place as you get the format is a partition option.....
