Subsequent to upgrading to Leopard I recently decided to get rid of my windows partition. I used Leopard's bootcamp manager to do just that. However, for some reason whenever the computer restarts it still looks for a windows partition as the primary drive to boot-up. I previously had it set to boot windows unless I held the Option Key, but now it still tries to do that unless I hold the key. So there is no more windows partition, the start-up disk preference pane only shows 1 disk (the mac one of course) and I have no idea how to fix this bug (the result of which is if I restart the computer, it boots into a dumb DOS-like error stating 'no suitable disk to boot' or something unless I hold the option key every time I restart)

Any Ideas? Is this a known issue?

go into system prefs > startup disk, and choose OS X. Click Restart.

Maybe this will force Leopard to set itself as the default boot volume, and it will stop looking for Windows.

Have you actually selected your OS X drive in the Startup Disk pref pane?

thanks guys. Upon hitting 'restart' from the Startup Disk pane, the problem seems to have gone away. I had previously just 'selected/highlighted' the right disk as per the instructions in the pane, but subsequent to hitting restart I'm getting booted into Leopard every time, no problems.

horray.
