Why is Partitioned Drive not showing!
also regarding the partitioned drive, why isnt my drives from laptop being detected?
I even used 'Partition Magic' to create partitions for an HFS+ drive but still no luck! If sum how my drives could be detected, den I could be sure that it would boot up once the installation is complete! I tried making all format drives, HFS+, NTFS and FAT32 but none of them are being detected in disk utility! :( Any thing i could do here to make them appear? |
how could i change my drive from AHCI to Compatibility Mode! Because I read that doing so mite boot the OS from the HDD.
I also read you do it by pressing F2 ---> BIOS --> Advance --> and select AHCI to Compatibility! But wen i press F2, i cant see BIOS screen or anything, I tried everything, f2, f9, f10 but cudnt find BIOS menu! So my question is from where could i change that, because it mite work after this :) Thanks |
I would recommend heading over to hp's website and downloading a copy of your computer's user manual as accessing your bios settings will be useful.

AHCI won't help you with using P-ATA/IDE drives.
I had similiar trouble with using two IDE drives @ one cable on my old nForce 4 based desktop computer, but on a notebook you can't chance allmost anything about that. With using 9.4.0 StageXNU Kernel I had the second / slave IDE device at least showing up sometimes but I never continued to solve this cause my AMD experience was painfull enaugh to move to Intel :D Maybe give this release a try: http://www.infinitemac.com/f36/leo4a...eleased-t1291/ - but be aware - I reckon (haven't looked it up) your chipset is using kind of unsupported 7000M Series GeForce... |

and as you said my chipset isnt suported, but i got it working fine! (Although internet isnt working, and i dint check the sound yet) and about the link, its the older version and the menus have changed rite. So do i download the older version and try installing again? Im slowly losing hope!! :( although i want this to work badlyy! |
Yes trying to install to your internal disk using the suggest old prepatched ISO that's using a different kernel is the only idea I have left.
Just trying to boot your system stored on the external HD using the Kernel i mentioned won't work. |

i was thinking how about booting it with a retail mac osx dvd with boot132 etc. I dont know how its done, but i have seen it sumwhere! Maybe that might detect my internal drive :) thanks again for your time though :) really appereciate it :) |
Where the hell have I been talking about iDeneb?! My Link reffers to the release notes of Leo4All v4.1 which uses the 9.4.0 StageXNU (+ modified nForce drivers) instead of VoodooXNU - which I suggested you to try out as it worked for me in a different but similiar case....

I can not stress enough the lack of usability you will experience if you do not have a support graphics chipset. That would be my focus and if I couldnt find evidence that my graphics were supported I would look at different hardware.
