A few problems with install on Macbook 2,1

I used diskutil to set a 4G SWAP partition, and a HFS+ Arch partition.  Did not make a separate boot partition. 
I downloaded and installed rEFit.  Went through the Macbook Install wiki, but grub would not install on /dev/sda3 even with the sfdisk -c fix.
I also could not get pacman -Sy refit to work, it said that 'refit' did not exist, tried pacman -Ss as well, nothing.  gptsync command does not work. 
I initially thought that I had installed refit too soon (before creating the new partitions in diskutil) so I erased everything, restored back to the original volume in OSX, and tried it again being very careful to follow the wiki order of steps, but went straight back to the same problem.  I feel like I'm overlooking something simple here.  My girlfriend (she configures BSD and linux distros for fun) heard me cursing and said that grub was just being difficult.

Okay I figured this out, and possibly the problems that many are having installing GRUB or LILO.  The GRUB error message about the GPT HD is most likely due to rEFit syncing the GPT and MBR.  The only way that I got GRUB to install correctly was to go back and reinstall without using rEFit or "syncing" the PT and MBR.  It looks like it may actually be better to install rEFit (if you want it) after installing linux, or not at all. 
I did see the small "disclaimer" in the wiki stating that rEFit is not available for pacman to find anymore, so I don't know why the "pacman -Sy refit" is even still in the wiki.  One thing is for sure, it does not seem like anyone is really clear about this whole GPT/MBR setup on the Mac HD's, or what this "syncing" actually does.  Looks to me like it just sort of "smooths" out the hybrid MBR partitions and that's why GRUB can't find the specific partition you want to install it on, it doesn't look like a partitioned MBR anymore to it, it only sees a GPT. 
I'm also not sure the sfdisk -c /dev/sda X XY command can work for everyone, it only gave me error messages.
Another thing, now that I have everything installed and working, I hardly have any drivers, or relevant modules for the Macbook.  At least I have Arch installed, but now I'm going to have to go configure everything just to get the X environment working (I don't even have the driver for the LCD).

  • Problems with installing on MacBook

    Trying to install on a MacBook 2.0 late 2007 (Santa Rosa) 1gb RAM with an retail install disk of Windows XP pro with SP 2.
    The first time I went through it I chose to partition it to 20bg and the install went well up to the point when it restarted then what I got was a "Disk Error, Press any key to restart". Pushing any key on either the USB keyboard or the MacBook did nothing so I tried restarting with the MacBook. It booted back to the "Choose your partition" install screen and I went through the install again. And got the same Disk Error message. I restarted in 10.5.7 and looked in the Boot Camp disk on the desktop and the install had created another complete Windows folder labeled Windows.0. Each folder had 45 items and was 521.3mb for 3,484 items in size.
    So I went into Boot Camp Assistant again erased the Boot Camp partition and created a new one of 15gb. Went through the install again and got the same result as the last time.

    Another thing I've noticed is that my free space on the hard drive went from 49gb available to 44.51gb available after trying to install the Windows on Boot Camp and then erasing it. Are there Boot Camp files somewhere that can be trashed?

  • Problem with install on new compy, something to do with external?

    Hello, so I have been having a few problems with installing Arch on my new computer. On my old laptop I never ran into this problem on any distro of LINUX I installed, nor on any other of the systems I have installed Arch on. I believe it might have something to do with the fact that I am running the live cd off of an external dvd drive maybe? I am kind of stuck here, so any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
    If it helps
    System Specs:
    Motherboard: ASROCK 890FX Deluxe3

    OS: Windows 7 Professional on the RAID 0, hoping to put ARCH on the ATA (I have tried booting the ATA first in the list behind the USB DVDROM to no avail)
    External Drive: Sony DVD/CD RW drive DRX-510UL
    External DVDROM is the exact same drive I used to install windows 7 professional.
    External DVDROM is plugged into one of my USB 2.0 ports, but the error still persists.

  • Problem with installing and uninstalling applicati...

    hi all,
    I have a problem with installing or uninstalling apps on 808. When i try to install an application through Nokia suite or when trying to run the application file from the phone's memory the screen freezes and becomes unresponsive but the 3 phone buttons work just fine. I have to shut down the phone and the screen becomes responsive again. Anything available to help me wiith this situations as I cannot use any of the apps I have. Any help much appreciated.
    Regards
    Alex

    You are not alone. Im also having the same issue because we do alot of install and uninstall apps. This is the bad point of symbian. But I tired to install the latest FP2 it will be slightly abit smoother now. So you have the latest version now but did you tired to restore any backup yet? It might be the setting on when you restore that affect it. The feezing should be shorten on FP2 but it will still remain there depending on the type of apps from what I experience.
    I hope they will provide multiple function to uninstall apps since it will go through a long process to uninstall apps 1 by 1.
    Reason is because some apps will go through process like preparing install, process install, finalising install which take away your control for that few seconds or a minute instead runnning in background mode. Its not convenient to uninstall more apps.

  • I am having a problem with my 2009 Macbook Pro

    Hello Everyone,
    I am having a problem with my 2009 Macbook Pro .  A few weeks ago I plugged it into the charger after running it down to reserve battery power. It appeared to be charging, but then all of a sudden my clock and calender reset to year 2000 and then my computer blacked out and went dead. I tried to boot it up but nothing happened (literally nothing).   I have tried 3 different chargers on it, but all I get is a faint green light and even after hours it still won't boot up.   I have tried replacing the battery, but still nothing happens.
    Any Ideas?  I am pretty desperate to get my computer back up and running before school finals.

    You may have to see if an authorized Apple service specialist can check over
    the charging system (magsafe dc-in board, power adapter, and MacBook/Pro)
    and test or run a diagnostic on it, to be sure there is no damage or failed parts.
    When you attached the adapter to charge the computer, after it said it was going
    to reserve power, did you shut down open applications and stop using the MB/Pro?
    That would've been the thing to do, since the margin of run-time near the bottom
    of the power cycle can be wrong by the gauge estimate, it can just quit.
    While I have not researched your year/model/series in detail, I do know some
    models of Apple portable computers have a small battery or capacitor on the
    logic board, separate from the main power battery; it may need replacement.
    A service provider w/ Apple training & parts would be a likely resource to fix it.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • New problem with display on Macbook Pro retina (Samsung panel)

    Hello All,
    I am a very new people on your forum but a few weeks ago i bought a new macbook pro retina with samsung panel.
    I haven't ghosting effect on my macbook but i have a new and really bad problem.
    I try to found a some information on Russians forums but nobody can help me with it.
    I can see an artifacts in the form of flashing pixels on all display.
    It occurs in 20-30 minutes after the start of work.
    Today i try to test it on game Dirt 2 and i can see defects after 2 minutes after start. So i think it can be reason with Geforce 650 but when i back to desktop and use HD 4000 i still see a problem.
    This is best seen on a black screen with high backlight.
    When i try to connect TV via HDMI i can't see any problem in my TV.
    So i really don't know what could be the reason.
    I attached the video with issue to video hosting
    http://vimple.ru/579f880e8b7045e09f8fc5bc097c5e2b
    Also i have a many software problem like Crashing safari and iTunes. It can be a few times per day.
    I really disappointed with my new Macbook.
    I haven't any problem with old 2009 Macbook pro with Snow Leopard but Mountain Lion is not working well.

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
    Regards

  • I have a problem with installing PS13 as I get an error message "This installer does not support installation on a 64-Bit Windows operating system. Please download the 64-Bit version of Photoshop Elements." how do i do this?

    i have a problem with installing PS13 as I get an error message "This installer does not support installation on a 64-Bit Windows operating system. Please download the 64-Bit version of Photoshop Elements." how do i do this

    Try downloading the trial. It ought to detect that you have a 64-bit system.
    You aren't using Vista, are you? PSE 13 requires at least win 7 and I think a few folks with vista have gotten a similar error message on trying to install it.

  • Problems With My New Macbook

    I bought my white Macbook early February and since then i have come aross a couple of problems, so i am posting here to see if anyone else has experienced my first problem and to warn you all of the second;
    - My headphone out only plays out of the left headphone unless I turn the volume right up which causes the right ear to distort profusely.
    - The highly rated "Incase" Neoprene Sleeve I bought with it has left black stains on the sides and looking at other threads it seems that it is only the newer Macbooks that suffer with the problem with the case.
    My macbook is now with the apple repair guys for a few days to sort the headphone problem out and the person I spoke to recommended getting a new case.
    I just think it's ridiculous that they advertise the case with picture of a white macbook when it actually stains them..
    Let me know if you have experiences similar problems with the new macbooks..
    Regards,
    Martin

    I have tried multiple sets of headphones which work fine with my ipod and i still have the same problem and I get the same problem when playing music through itunes, frontrow, myspace and purevolume.
    Whilst i was on the phone to apple support they led me through a few different ways of resolving the problem easily i.e going into system preferences and checking that the pan is centered, restarting the mac by pressing 4 keys at the same time etc. and none of that fixed the problem.
    Hmm it seems that no one else has had a similar problem to this.. maybe i just got a faulty unit.. I should get my macbook back from the repair guys either today or monday so i'll find out then exactly what the problem was.
    Thank you all for your input!

    I have problems with installing Elements, it gives my an unknown mistake - I already have CS4 up and running, could this be the case?

    Chances are not very good that pse 4 will run on os x 10 6.8 unless you were upgrading from an earlier mac version that already had pse 4 installed.

  • Problem with installing iTunes

    So these are my problems with installing iTunes.
    At first it was :
    A required iTunes component is not installed.Please repair or reinstall iTunes (-45019)
    Then it got worse as it would not even open and these would appear:
    The program can't start because AVFoundationCF.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
    and this would appear:
    iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes.
    Error 7 (Windows error 126)
    I reinstalled maybe about 5 times or more...
    If I thought I solved the above problem, this would appear:
    iTunesHelper.exe is not installed on my computer.
    I seen other people comment that you should unistall and restart the computer and install the setup again, but it does not work..
    And others would say to repair the AAS or iTunes etc..
    And after trying all these it does not work???
    What else works?

    I also tried repairing the Microsoft NET.

  • Problem with Installing Nokia Ovi Store in E51

    I am having problem with installing nokia Ovi store in my E51. Whenever I try to download Ovi store from my E51, it shows a error message that the component is built in and cannot be installed. I dont know wat to do now. Can anyone please give me some advice. Thanks in advance.

    Hi there! 
    This means that the Ovi Store is currently installed in your E52 phone, what I can suggest is try checking under Application Manager > Installed Application, check if the Ovi Store is there. If you can't see it, try to perform the soft reset (press *#7780# on the main screen of the phone and it will prompt you restore all original phone settings? phone will restart. Press YES and it will ask you for the lock code 12345.) If anything else please reply to this message.
    Hope tis' Help!

    Hi Sinisa,
    It almost sounds like this bug;
    CSCtn81201
    Incorrect "Hardware Configuration Error" due to hardware setup errors
    Symptom:
    Refresh upgrade stops with IMM device detection, and then server being reported as unsupported
    Conditions:
    in-band USB interface was disabled, which is configurable via IBM system X or IMM (browser) interfaces.
    Workaround:
    change the in-band usb interface settings to enabled.
