The S netbook is NOT an Apple product and was never intended to run Mac OSX. Fortunately, enthusiasts have found ways to make OSX run on our netbook. However, the process may not be smooth for some. Make sure you have patience and time to get it to run. Most importantly, motivation to read and learn. This forum contains enough information to get OSX running. Most problems you may encounter can be solved just by reading through the forums or searching. So please take the time and read through the forums!

You can enter target disk mode if another mac is available and back up your data before you reformat.

Cripes,
Here's hoping I never make this mistake!
What does Enabler (or NBI) do to the install other than create an /Extra and chuck Chameleon_ish stuff to the drive boot sectors?
Can't you get round this by:
1) Boot OSX DVD...
2) Terminal: delete /Extra from the HD
3) Terminal: delete boot from / (boot)
4) Re-Bless/fix the "MBR" of the HD using "StartUp Disk" (boot0)
5) Possibly, do something to the VBR on /dev/disk0s2?? (boot1h)
Or are there nasty things done to /S/L/E also?
This is an experiment I don't think I'll try at home!
