Create A Chameleon USB Rescue Drive


Chameleon USB Drive

  3. Open Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility.
  4. Highlight your USB drive in the left column.
  5. Click the Partition Tab.
  6. Click Volume Scheme- choose 1 Partition.
  7. Click Options…
  8. Select GUID Partition Table. Click OK.
  9. In the Name: field type: ChameleonBoot
  10. In Format: field select Mac OS Extended (Case Sensitive, Journaled)
  11. Click Apply, then click Partition.
  12. Close Disk Utility
  13. Download Razormacx86-SnowLeopard.zip
  14. Open and place Razormacx86-SnowLeopard folder on the desktop.
  15. Open Apps folder
  16. Open PC EFI 10.1
  17. Select ChameleonBoot and click Continue.
  18. Click Install, and then type your password.
  19. Open Terminal.
  20. Type: sudo rm /Volumes/ChameleonBoot/boot and type your password. (this deletes the boot file installed from PC EFI 10.1)
  21. Click and drag boot, DSDT.aml, and Extra from Razormacx86-snowleopard to ChameleonBoot. Or drag your own files from your existing Snow Leopard drive.
That's it- the drive is done. Just set your BIOS Hard Disk Priority to boot from USB first. Hope this helps!
