[Problem installing iPC 10.5.6 Patched PPF 1-5] No hdd found??
Hey guys.
I've patched it, it's the right MD5sum.. ( patched with 1 to 5 (including) ) And so i run the installer, everything works fine, when i come to please select a location to install Mac OS X. There's nothing to select... Neither in Disk Utility.. nothing.. I have got a "SAMSUNG HD321KJ 320GB (SATA300, 3.5", 7200rpm, NCQ, 16MB Cache) : 298GB" Can this be solved? =(. I currently have XP & Windows 7 installed on my HDD. was going to erase one of my files partition that i cleaned up lol.. I really want this to work =( mac looks so awesome =(. Thanks in advance... =( - Shadows. |

hmm..
Did you format your entire HDD or just a partition? Let me format the partition using linux's gParted.. i'll try formatting it to what you said. not willing to format my entire disk as there are important files on it atm xP. i guess i'll have to buy a new HDD as mine is full atm except a little space ( 20 gigs ) i left for mac lol. Thank you! - Shadows. |

If you dont see HDD in installer nor the Disk Utility, it means that it doesnt have proper kext for your chipset. You have to add proper kext to the .mkext package on the installer dvd and burn it again. So what is your chipset anyway ? Take a look at the forum, there was a thread about editing .mkext package, adding driver and using it again.
Here is a thread for you : http://www.infinitemac.com/f5/how-do...-onto-a-t2129/ If you cant find kexts for your chipset to use with it, say what chipset it is, we`ll try to help. www.ultimae.com Panoramic music, for panoramic people.

Thanks for your support guys =) I've posted for help at 3 different forums and you are the only guys to answer =).
---- But i can't run that mkext tool, i'm currently on Windows, i never installed mac on my pc. Ok so.. i'll search but anyway i'll let you know my PC specs: -- edit: sorry, wasn't able to get the kext of it =( was able to get the chipset driver zip but no kext files in it... Quote:
