I'm having an issue where I cannot boot back into my Lion installation at all.
This is what is happening...
I have two hard drives installed, one for Lion and one for Windows 7. When I try to boot into Lion, I get the boot0: done error. Then, when I try to boot from a bootloader disc to try and boot back into Lion, the disc mounting screen hangs right before the GUI menu to select a hard drive to boot. Also, when I try to boot into Windows 7, the screen turns completely black after logging in with my password, proving to be unusable.
Now this is the confusing bit, if I physically unplug the SATA cable from the motherboard to the Lion HDD, I can boot into Windows 7 perfectly and can also boot and use the bootloader disc as well. All these issues only occur when I have the Lion HDD plugged in.
Any thoughts on how to fix this? I would really appreciate the help.
