ouyllik93 Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Hi all, I know this isn't the first time this has happened to anyone I know its happened to loadsof people but I've tried everything I it still get b0 error everytime I boot into Leopard from my hardrive. I've tried FDisk but it doesn't work. I've tried booting from the dvd but I get 'System config file" /com.apple.boot.plist" not found'. I successfully installed iATKOS v1.0i but it just won't boot up after I restart. Please can anyone help me??? I've spent nearly a week now trying to get this working. I have had to reinstall windows 3 times and have lost all my files because windows wouldn't boot when I tried to do a dual boot with partitioning my Hardrive. I bought another hardrive to install OS X Leopard on so it wouldn't f**k up my windows OS. P L E A S E H E L P M E ! ! ! !

zurk Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 repartition with guid not mbr.; Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/97507-b0-error-please-help-me/#findComment-696681 Share on other sites More sharing options...
deegeecee Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 yeah, i got the same error. I originally partitioned with guid, but for some reason my install wouldn't complete. switching to mbr i could get the install to finish. guess i'll go back to guid and try changing some of the other options.

ouyllik93 Posted April 5, 2008 Author Share Posted April 5, 2008 have just tried installing with just iATKOS main system and everything in efi and now I get a blinking cursor instead of the b0 error.

resonance Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 This has only hapened to me running kalyway on a costro 200. The way to overcome is, is to ensure your first boot device is the cd drive and hard disk second. And make sure the install disc is still in the drive. Don't press any keys and it should boot. If it doesn't I guess, you need to wait for someone elses help, as that is the only way it worked for me.

ouyllik93 Posted April 5, 2008 Author Share Posted April 5, 2008 thanks for your help. I've managed to do it anyway. I press -s when I boot the dvd, mark the partition as active using fdisk and it worked. But I have to type cpus=1 everytime for it to boot correctly otherwise it just restarts my computer Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/97507-b0-error-please-help-me/#findComment-697173 Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I have to type cpus=1 everytime for it to boot correctly otherwise it just restarts my computer You can just add that to the com.apple.boot.plist to save typing whenever you start. Have a look around, there should be a guide. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/97507-b0-error-please-help-me/#findComment-697286 Share on other sites More sharing options...
