No Installer Packages ..
This is probably not unique to SL but I'm posting it here because it occurs on my SL install.
I restored a SL 10A380.dmg to a blank partition on one drive and then installed SL onto another drive using the OSInstall.mpkg file. Installation was successful. When I go into my SL install and try to Repair Permissions using Disk Utility I receive the following message .... "No installer packages can be found for this disk .." Any ideas? Thanks. |
[Solved]
I installed 402 and everything is as it should be.
If anyone has an idea why this occurs I would still like to know. Thanks. |

Either I get the MDWORKER kernel panic or I can't repair permissions but it doesn't kernel panic (much). Go figure. |
Must be some file missing somewhere. I never tried it (didn't think of it) but I wonder if a re-install of the same build from the same partition would solve that problem.
I'll have to try it next time it happens. I don't think it's a UUID problem as I checked. Shooting in the dark here. :-/ |

1) I cannot boot the 64bit kernel or it KPs immediately during boot 2) This damn repair permissions error (no installer packages) even tho this is a fresh install and I haven't fracked with ANYTHING |
Yes the two might be .... I remember having problems booting into 64 but I've done it so many times I can't remember what I did any more. :confused:
For #2 try what I did .... install the next version ... seems to have repaired itself. I'm speculating that installing the same version might work but haven't tried it yet. |

OK ... I did two installs of SL 432 today. I restored to a temp partition and installed with OSInstal.mkpg
If I installed from Leopard .... I would get the message when I tried to fix permissions with Disk Utility If I installed from SL .... was able to fit permissions with DU. Now I need to get 432 up ... it keeps hanging on the last step before the desktop. :mad: |

Everyone with similar boards, how are you installing? What bootmgr are you using? EFI install? MBR? There has to be a reason my installs are as unstable as sh**. |
