Can not and will not format any partitions I am not going to erase data.
The installer scripts should be able to handle an existing Mac OS X install, exactly like Apple does. Come up with another idea like how to recover previous working Mac OS X on that partition |
No.
You asked why it's erring on boot.efi, I told you why, it's up to you to figure out what to do at that point, it's not my responsibility. If you don't want to lose any data, don't use Mac OS X then. |
I use Mac OS X so I dont have Data loss.
My point is this, the installer scripts should be able to handle an existing Mac OS X install just as easily as a blank partition. |
Well they don't, and for good reason. It's to prevent borking a system that may have conflicts with a "upgrade".
Backup your stuff somewhere else and start fresh. |
I just deleted the System Folder, it installed the final
I didnt apply nforce 1.1 ppf or whatever it is. (the one after 5) I do not have the looking for root device issue. So I don't think I need the fix unless it fixes the following: any DVD will not mount and trying to look at System profiler then Serial ATA or starting Disk Utility to see if it will mount the dvd that way, or even trying to eject the disk via iTunes, or eject icon on menu bar, causes System Profiler, Disk Utilities, iTunes, etc in Force Quit Dialog Box to show up as non responsive, this occurs with any non blank DVD in the drive. Update: It thinks these DVD's are blank. |
well, at this point i can only say this distro is Working. the other i've tried are Leo4All and iAtkos.. which didn't work with my AMD box.
this one works :), i'm just not getting sound (i choose ALC850, it should be AC97), graphics look sluggish (Geforce 6600 + nvinject kexts.) and i can't get ethernet (choose NforceLan something.) . if someone including distro developers, have a clue on what is affecting my osx86 install performance, and why i'm not getting audio nor ethernet connection please help :). I'm leaving my specs here : AMD 64 3500+ (skt939) @ 2.5Ghz ASUS A8N-SLI (NForce4) ASUS Geforce 6600 TD (256MB Vram) Nforce4 Onboard Audio (AC97 ?) SATA & IDE Disks are properlly detected :) PS : NICE WORK, we owe.. for life :D PS2 : How do you take screenshots with a "Mac" ? i tried ctrl+alt+3 or shif+alt+3 which seems to be the default key bindings... but doesn't work lol :s peace |
