And you've already tried "fdisk" on your install HD and partition to make it "bootable"?

http://osx86.wikidot.com/known-issues#toc3

Yes I do.

1. I open a Terminal
2. Su Root (Password)
3. i
4. I make fdisk -e /dev/Rdisk0
5. u
6. f 1
7. w
8. q

and then I reboot and i see the theme problem. The PC bootet allways if i have the DVD in my drive.

by the way, soory my english

What type of partition are you running on, GUID or MBR? What version of Zephyroth's release are you trying to install? What is the name of the volume/partition you installed your copy of the O/S? Answer these, and there may be some solution available for you. =)

OK,

I take the MBR (see the info.txt
I download the Leopard-10-5.2-AMD.ISO via torrent fom PiratesBay and install this
and by the Partition doing i name the Partion Leopard

Please look.

Did you install with or without EFI?

If you installed with MBR and without EFI, then this is the right way:

// Hit enter after each terminal line to execute the command. //

1 -> Launch with DVD
2 -> At boot prompt, type

Code:

-s

(single user mode)

3 -> Type:

Code:

fdisk -e /dev/rdiskX

update

f 1

w (yes)

q

4 ->

Code:

cd /usr/standalone/i386



./startupfiletool -v /dev/rdisXsX ./boot

5 ->

Code:

mount -uw /

mount -t hfs /dev/diskXsX /Volumes

6 ->

Code:

bless -device /dev/diskXsX -setBoot -verbose

7 -> Reboot, hopefully without any dvd inserted.
