limac Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 hi, That probably means that you, when installing, have not installed Leopard on a primary partition or you have not set the partition active right after the installation. regards, limac Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/96314-iatkos-wont-boot/#findComment-687591 Share on other sites More sharing options...

nkear5 Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Remember that 0 is your Hard-drive number, 1 is your partition number. Make sure you modify these numbers as per your hardware configuration. Good Luck. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/96314-iatkos-wont-boot/#findComment-687640 Share on other sites More sharing options...

limac Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 tstevens: if you are using a second drive it is probably in disk1s1...so it is going to be fdisk -e /dev/rdisk1 flag 1 update write quit again it is flag 1 only if you don't have any other OS installed before you install mac regards, limac Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/96314-iatkos-wont-boot/#findComment-698343 Share on other sites More sharing options...
