Silentwulf Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 I just downloaded Kalyway via torrent, 10.5.2, and I seem to have problems installing. I burnt the image to a DVD, and after I boot off it, it goes through the basic command-line process, and then enters the GUI install. It then goes to the Welcome screen (hasn't been installed). It gives me the following options; "<---" "Continue" Neither button works. I can move the mouse around, and that's about it. I can't even eject the disc, and it doesn't appear to be reading it. The Hard Drives aren't even reading/writing. I restart the PC and get stuck at the same point.

XoDeus Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 I have had this issue too, try to boot with the -x parameter... Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/100642-freeze-on-the-welcome-screen/#findComment-718001 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silentwulf Posted April 22, 2008 Author Share Posted April 22, 2008 I've tried various tricks, and no go. But when I did boot into safe mode with -x, it did install, but later would not boot into OSX. It would sit at the gray screen with the apple, and do nothing.

XoDeus Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Then you maybe chose wrong video drivers when installing. then try again, or boot with -f parameter..
