Mac Mini Installation Issues

[Hugh Caley]

I also had the problem with the partition error on initial install;

"The partition data region doesn´t occupy the entire partition"

"Attempt to read 16-18 outside of partition on /dev/sda"


I was able to get around it by firing up fdisk and writing a new 
partition table before doing the installation.

After that, the installation went smoothly.  However, on reboot, I only 
get the flashing Mac "looking for a boot disk" graphic.

Boot with cmd-option-o-f; printenv.

boot-device /pci@f4000000/ata-6@d/disk@0:,\\:tbxi hd:,\\:tbxi
