hello.

first of all, i have a macpro4,1 under my table. so it is ML compatible.

i created an installer thumb drive (as instructed on this site, same as ars technica etc.), which is actually easy to do.

anyway, i connected a new empty hard drive in my macpro and booted with the thumb drive (by pressing the option key).

i clicked the disk utility option, but disk utility only shows the thumb drive and the external drive (and NOT the internal drives).

i resetted the PRAM, i double checked that the hard drive is correctly formatted.

any tips would be greatly appreciated.
