bugman Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Hello All, DVD: Kalyway DVD 10.5.1 Chip: Intel Duo Core 6300 Motherboard: Asrock Conroe Xfire HDD1: Sata with XP on it HDD2: IDE HDD set as master, have a 30 gig fat32 partion on it. Was an old XP drive, reformatted it in XP and then asigned it a drive letter and made it active. Benq 1620 DVD RW drive set as slave (although its at the top of the IDE chain) Right, here goes. Downloaded and wrote iso to DVD, when viewing the DVD in windows, it only tells me its about 192kb big but the entire dvd is written too. Anyway, started up, darwin boots up and the OS X springs into life. It does some checks for intergragity of the DVD which is passes. I select english and off it goes. It then presents this screen: and I then i selected the IDE drive, it comes back to the above screen and I press install and then the next screen is OSX installing and it stops. A few minutes later it tells me something along the lines of "file not found in /volume/apple/" and quits. I never saw this screen: Have I missed something, or a simple step? Since it passes its intergrity check, it would appear the dvd is ok, but I am a tad lost. Please help Thankyou J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugman Posted February 19, 2008 Author Share Posted February 19, 2008 Hmm for other people reading this, look at the top, choose utilities and then disk utilites. Format it from there. Silly me J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
