| Zephyroth Leopard AMD 10.5.2 Rev.2 Issue Discussion “[cite] Puttabong:NUCLEaR, http://osx86.wikidot.com/known-issues#toc9 Thank you for the answer. Another problem that I have: because of the MBR being edited as of the single boot, Vista cannot be loaded if you choose Vista at the Darwin boot…” | Leopard 10.5 | 2008-03-13 35,425 dossier reads |
| Zephyroth Leopard AMD 10.5.2 Rev.2 Issue Discussion “I finally got it to boot, but when I press continue on the welcome wizard on the Transfer files from another Mac, it hangs for a bit and then restarts the welcome wizard.

| Zephyroth Leopard AMD 10.5.2 Rev.2 Issue Discussion “I've tried boot0, chain0, boot1h, and boot1u. Nothing works, just gives out partition not found or chain errors. Setting Leo as primary partition makes a missing OS error.” | Leopard 10.5 | 2008-03-12 35,425 dossier reads |
| Zephyroth Leopard AMD 10.5.2 Rev.2 Issue Discussion “Can you upload that file? I have trouble accessing the .iso with macdrive, since it conflicts with the driver that makes Daemon tools work.” | Leopard 10.5 | 2008-03-12 35,425 dossier reads |
| Zephyroth Leopard AMD 10.5.2 Rev.2 Issue Discussion “I'm getting a chain booting error after adding a chain0 file to bcdedit in Vista. MacDrive shows Leo installed fine on another partition.” | Leopard 10.5 | 2008-03-12 35,425 dossier reads |
| Zephyroth Uploading 10.5.2 Revision 2 (Latest Release), Discuss Here “The dual-boot installation doesn't work. Neither does chain0 booting, it gives a "Chain booting error" It installed just fine though.” | 10.X Core | 2008-03-12 20,157 dossier reads |

| X1300: Answer to Zephyroth “That's ok I just came in a bit too late. I'll add it myself after the install completes (unless absense of driver disables monitor completely) This might be the first release to work on the Dell E521. Will the stuff be uploaded today?” | 10.X Core | 2008-03-11 4,115 dossier reads |
