InorganicMatter Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I already have a perfect 10.5.2 Leopard system. I have a second hard disk connected via SATA. I want to install Mac OS X to the second disk while booted in my working system. Sort of like selecting a different disk as the "install destination" for a Mac OS X update. How can it be done? NO BOOTING FROM THE CD ALLOWED! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
