Won't Startup!
Authored by: archiboy on Dec 30, '03 02:32:45AM

I was having this problem all day yesterday and finally figured it out... In Disk Utility where you might see something like this:

Disc ID
Session 1
Mac OSX Install

Do not select the root. Select the "Mac OSX Install" partition when making the new image. Then follow the instructions for enlarging and adding the extra files.

After making several coasters I was finally successful in creating a working disc!

Hope this helps.

i made successful copies from a DMG created by selecting the "Session 1" item and then choosing "Images > New > Image from diskNsN" (whre diskNsN is 'disk4s1' or somesuch).
