cjcamilla Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I have a GIGABYTE N650-SLI motherboard with a E4500 2.2 GHz Core 2 duo processor and 2gb of ram, and I tried to install Leo4All on an IDE HDD from both a SATA and IDE drive. I kept getting stuck on the screen with a bunch of text, but it wasnt saying "waiting for root device" Can someone help?

Macshiba Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Make it so that only the drive you're installing on is in the CS position, and the only drive plugged into your ribbon cable.

cjcamilla Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 Ribbon cable??? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/94517-issues-with-leo4all/#findComment-676845 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macshiba Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Sorry, I'm old school. The cable connecting from your Motherboard to your IDE drive, make sure only the Primary connector is connected to one IDE drive, and the drive is set to CS. That's how I got my Leo4All to be installed. Any other way and it said waiting for root device.

cjcamilla Posted March 21, 2008 Author Share Posted March 21, 2008 I got the installer to show up, though, I'm not stuck on "waiting for root device" The IDE HDD wont show in Disk Utility. That's the opnly problem I have right now. And the drive is the only drive connected to the IDE cable (and its in CS) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/94517-issues-with-leo4all/#findComment-676897 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilSoldier Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 When I still had my desktop, the same thing would happen to me unless i put both my DVD drive and the hard drive I wanted to install on to both in the same IDE/ribbon cable and one the primary IDE slot. I then set the HDD as master and the DVDRW as slave on the jumpers. However, I realize this may not be possible as you may be using a SATA DVDRW/HDD Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/94517-issues-with-leo4all/#findComment-678356 Share on other sites More sharing options...
