Hey anybody know what command to use to show all your partitions in -s, the diskutil..something. It shows the identity of each drive. I installed 10.5.2 on a USB hardrive and I'm trying to get it to boot, any suggestions?

-Worked in 10.5.1

Field Note #1 @Cosmo 2008-02-18

you just have to start up in -s and fix the boot so that it will start up without the installation dvd in the drive. In other words, to make it start without using the darwin bootloader that comes on the installation dvd. Check the wiki for the code.
