Scotty2Hotty Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 HI, I have tried to boot my oxs installationm from the dvd using the F8 -s mode this works and after about 5 minutes I am presented with a command prompt. the problem is that the sudo command is then not working and showing and being unrecognised command. I need to change some files and if I try and miss out this command I get the error message telling me some files are read only. what am I doing wrong?

CmdrMonty Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 dont you have to boot into mac os install menu, and use Terminal from there? the menu where you choose the hd to install to. the menu bar appears at the top to choose disk utility for example. terminal is up there. sorry if im incorrect, just some thoughts that came together frorm 4 days of my macosx hackintosh experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
