10.5: Create a single Intel+PowerPC diagnostic drive
Authored by: jamescoy on Dec 04, '07 07:18:31PM

I followed these instructions, creating three partitions on a PowerPC, then getting the image of the Leopard Installer on the first partition. I then installed Leopard onto the second partition, again, using a PowerPC, and now I cannot boot an Intel Mac with it. In spite of selecting the second partition, the drive reverts to the installer partition! What gives here? Bad install or..?

10.5: Create a single Intel+PowerPC diagnostic drive

In the hopes that people are still watching the comments for this hint...

So James, did you ever discover why the technique wasn't working for you? I can't imagine what might be the problem... Anyone else have similar experiences, or ideas about why his drive isn't working as it should?

I'm about to try this myself, so I'll keep you posted if I run into any issues.
