installing chameleon manually...
« on: November 18, 2009, 01:41:16 PM »
I am trying to install SL to my external HD. I found guides about it. Basically, here's what I did:

1. "Restored" the SL dmg file to my external HD.
2. dd if=boot0 of=/dev/sdf bs=440 count=1 (in linux)
3. dd if=boot1h of=/dev/sdf3 (in linux)
4. copied boot to /
5. added kexts

No luck. It won't boot. In the Disk Utility in Ubuntu 9.10, my external hdd showed many partitions. One of them is the Installation partition which is found in /dev/sdf3 (hence i used that in step 3). Did I do something wrong?
