roryy Posted January 14, 2008 Share Posted January 14, 2008 hi I want to install Kalyway Leopard on my external USB harddrive but the installation doesn't recognize my usb hard drive. Does someone know what I must do to install it to my external? Greetings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BJMoose Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 why is everyone ignoring my topics?There's probably very little input because you don't list any of your equipment in you post. This isn't like real macs where every system is a clone of another. Each motherboard handles OSX86 differently and it takes a while to work out all the bugs. Have you tried your drive in all the other USB ports? Are they all USB 2.0 are 1.1? Do other USB items work on this port in OSX86? I had a Gigabyte board that wouldn't recognize drives on 2 of the ports, but would on all the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

codingmonkey Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Hi roryy, have you resolved this problem? I'm having the exact same issue with my OSX86. Both my USB keyboard and mouse work but external drives can't be recognized... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falum2002 Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 Same here: Asrock Alive NF7G -HD720p Nvidia chipset 2x 4800 amd Install dvd fails to install with the fat32 partition external drive plugged in. Removing it allows me to get to the page where you select a destination drive. Only the dvd drive shows up as I have a 500gb sata drive. Adding the external drive does nothing. Tried Kalyway_10.5.2_DVD_Intel_Amd and a 10.5.1 (cant remember who's build). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
