rashaditor Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Check out if your "Leopard" partition is active or not. If not try searching the forum, for a way to activate it. One way is u can use fdisk in DOS and activate ur partition.It worked for me. Hope it does 4 u too. Good Luck.

mrburns05 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 restart the pc and boot from disk, once at the installer open terminal and type: fdisk -e /dev/rdisk0s1 (rdisk0s1 being your disk, could be rdisk 2s1)(you figure it out) flag 1 then i think thats it, just type "quit" then type "reboot" and take your disk out... if there was a nother step im missing someone please correct me Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/95838-leopard-doesn%C2%B4t-start-without-the-install-cd/#findComment-684682 Share on other sites More sharing options...

nameless2k Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 I assume you did a dualboot install, didn't you? There is so much issues with all this booting stuff. My recommendation that helps in 98% of the cases: install Leo to a separate harddisk. Don't spend your time trying to fix dualboot issues. Would you please provide some information about the motherboard you are using? In case you got an ASUS or an INTEL things are much easier. Since you can hit F8 during initialization of the BIOS and choose which of harddrive to boot.

nkear5 Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 It should be as follows. fdisk - e /dev/rdisk0 flag 1 update write quit reboot If you continue receiving this b0 error, I suggest that you reinstall Leopard, however after you format/erase your OS X partition, go straight into terminal and enter the above, however do not type reboot. Then just continue with the installation, making sure you select the correct options from the customize menu. (Try to install as little as possible) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/95838-leopard-doesn%C2%B4t-start-without-the-install-cd/#findComment-692990 Share on other sites More sharing options...
