Ok I will try to explain how to repiar the MBR bootloader, I have not tested this but it should work. Load the DVD up and open terminal.
First we are going to make sure the partition is active.
Code:
fdisk -e /dev/rdiskXsY ##replace X and Y with your disk/partition numbers for Leopard
update
f Y ## Y is your partition number again
w ## type yes to initialize the disk if needed
q
Ok now to install the EFI in case it failed.
Code:
diskutil unmount /Volumes/"Leopard" ## Change "Leopard" for whatever you named your partition
dd if=/usr/standalone/i386/boot1h of=/dev/rdiskXsY bs=512 count=1 ## Again change X and Y with your disk/partition number
cd /usr/standalone/i386
./startupfiletool /dev/diskXsY ./boot_V8
Now to bless the drive in case it failed.
Code:
cd /usr/sbin
bless -device /dev/diskXsY -setBoot -verbose ## you may need to unmount your partition again if it doesn't work.
diskutil mount /dev/diskXsY
bless -mount /Volumes/"Leopard" -setBoot -verbose ## May get an IODevicetree error, ignore it.
Now reboot and cross your fingers.
