I did try making an HFS partition at the back of the drive (along with the necessary bootstrap partition at the front), and OS X installer did not find any partitions in which it could install itself. So, I then tried leaving the space at the back of the drive unpartitioned, intending to use the OS X disk utility (in the installer) to make an HFS+ data partition. It did that, but it killed the Linux partitions in the front of the drive, too. > also: did you run mol as root? i wonder how it can kill your linux > partition, when you dont.. Yes I did run mol as root. I don't know how to run mol as non-root or as non-suid.
