Currently I'm trying to dual boot XP and OSX86, using this tutorial;
http://maconpc.distinctlyjordan.com/200 … d-leopard/
When the time comes to insert my Gparted live CD, I do so and get this error, using the "gparted-live-0.3.7-7.iso";
"ISOLINUX 3.63 2008-04-10 isolinux: Disk error 10, AX = 4280, drive EF"
"Boot failed: press a key to retry..."
Any help would be monumentally appreciated.
