I got as far as going thru the whole installation of the Os X os. It finishes the insall and then time for reboot.

 

reboot:

loads part way even with all the switches.

 

then reboots :-(

hey dude..!! i gott the same problem a week ago, but now it runs without problem ;)

 

there are too many ways to get over it, for example some of the users using partition programs "making the partition bootable" and they called it "flag the drive or flag the partition" mmm i tried it with to many program but it didn't work after all, i tried to make it (bootable) with northon ghost but it didn't work again..

 

the best way to resolve the problem is amazing listen carefully..!! but you'll need to reinstall the os again i'm sorry ..:unsure:

 

firstly insert an winxp cd to you cd or dvd drive and boot with xp drive to your computer and go on for installing the xp on your computer..

but you are not going to install it.. select the partition which is going to be used by macosx86 and format with ntfs quick format selection..

after completetion, computer is going2 start install the compenents for win setup NOWWW SHUT DOWN YOUR COMPUTERR.. :)(

 

and now insert you amazing MACOSX DVD to your dvd drive and go on but dont forgot to erase BUT ONLY ERASE the same partitionn dont repart it or bont touch it for partitioning olny erase the same parcel...

 

and you'll see it will gonna workk dude..!!

pfeckert, you still out there? I have an M8330F and want to install MacOS on it. I'm a noob so was wondering...is all I have to do to get OSX installed is go buy the OS disk, and install just like a Windows disk?

 

Also did you ever get all the hardware working?

 

turned on the firewire and POOOOOOF it loaded created account ect.

 

new problem no ethernet doesnt even recognize my nvidia onboard controller :-(

 

 

 

 

 

any ideas?
