When I want to verify my master drive, I get this error message from the Disc Utility: 'This disk needs to be repaired. Start up your computer with another disk (such as your Mac OS X installation disc), and then use Disk Utility to repair this disk.'
I am using mac os x lion and do not have an installation disc. When I try to restart and holding down the option key or start in safe mode by holding down the shift key, nothing happens and my login screen appears as during normal startup.
When I read about mac os x shortcut keys on apple.com, the following is mentioned: 'Press the key or key combination until the expected function occurs/appears (for example, hold Option during startup until Startup Manager appears, or Shift until "Safe Boot" appears). Tip: If a startup function doesn't work and you use a third-party keyboard, connect an Apple keyboard and try again.'
I have the original keyboard that followed when I bought my Mac Pro in 2009.
Please help me fix my drive...
