Valued community,
For compatibility reasons of my hardware, I’ve been running 10.6.8, dual boot with Win7 on a separate drive, and Chimera 1.7 without problems, until yesterday.
Was going to migrate the Mac system to a bigger drive, thus re-installed the system on the new HD using iBoot & Multibeast 3.10.1., with all it’s settings just like I had them before.
After system restart, when booting from the OSX HD, the Chimera screen doesn't even come on, but instead I'm getting this:
boot0: GPT
boot0: test
boot0: test
boot0: test
boot0: test
boot0: test
boot0: GPT
boot0: test
boot0: test
boot0: test
boot0: error
When starting it up via iBoot CD, though, I do get a proper menu and am able to load the system.
For the OSX system, I’m using a WD 10EZEX Blue HD, 1TB in 3 partitions, first SATA slot on the mainboard (Gigabyte GA P55a UD3). Could it be that the HD is not compatible?
All other things being equal, I’ve been running the exact same system on an old Excelstar HD, and everything was working fine - with the drive being way too small for today’s standards, I was going to upgrade and migrate the system to a bigger one (plus, the old one is giving me more and more r/w errors lately). Now I’m stuck…
BTW: is there a more efficient way to migrate a Hackintosh system to another drive? I tried to recover it from a Time Machine backup right at the point where you partition your HD after haviong booted from the SnowLeo DVD for the first time - but it wouldn't let me and told me to use the migration assistant after completion of the regular install... =(
Any help is much appreciated, thanks!!
