[fontanero]

Hi guys, sorry for my bad english.
I have GA-h55n-usb (f5) with hdd seagate 500gb sata, core i5, 4gb ram 2x2 and ati 5750, all ok, (sound on board +- voodo), installed iboot+multibeast and dsdt, modified ati5000 and atix3000 with my vendor&model and i put legacyhda in /Extra.

All ok, i'm very happy.

I change hdd for WD green 1Tb (WD10EARS) , i do the same install, I'm not change nothing, NO BOOT¡¡

boot0: GPT
boot0: test
boot0: test
boot0: test
boot0:error

If i start with iboot cd or older hdd all ok
i repeat install with 3 possible chamaleon version installer. nothing, error.

Anyone can help me?

(thanks to all)

The WD "EARS" has a unique method of addressing.
Try partitioning the 1 TB EARS into 2 partitions and re-try.

good luck, ninetto

thanks for your answer.

I make 2 partitions 500+500 , reinstall fresh, the same error.

I have that same HD and it was really a pain to make it boot with the guid partition table, at last I gave up on it and reformatted the disk using mbr partition table and it worked without problem. You may also be interested in deactivating intellipark, just read this:

Hi ! I have the same issue with the wd green 10ears 1Tb and a GA-H55M-USB3 mobo (boot0:error without iboot cd). How did you manage to install osx after mbr partionioning ? osx retail install refuses non guid partitions and when i try the restore method with a working image of my old HDD i can't boot after restoration.

NB : i install the bootloader with latest multibeast (DSDT) on a 100GB osx partition

thanks for your help
