williasj Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 tried downloading a new install dvd, restored to external HD and this is what I'm getting now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keden Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 tried downloading a new install dvd, restored to external HD and this is what I'm getting now First- use only one monitor connected to vga(if its present), second switch in bios between IDE and ACHI. Use different boot flags like -v, -x, -f, cpus=.... Best way go to you wife's mac and make a bootable flashdrive with SL on it, it will save you time swapping cd in and selecting boot partition. Try to get to install screen...the rest can be fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ephurix Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 the kernel part is the below? 1- download above tools 2-you will find two files mach_kernel and amd patcher 3 run terminal 4- type rm /mach_kernel 5-copy mach_kernel on tools to mac partion 6-now patch some files 7- first copy amd patcher to /usr/bin 8- run terminal again 9- type this command CODE sudo -s amd_insn_patcher /usr/lib/dyld /usr/lib/dyld.patched cp /usr/lib/dyld.patched /usr/lib/dyld amd_insn_patcher /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib.patched cp /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib.patched /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib now you finished patching you need to add to boot.plist on kernel flags -force64 this flag important to run on 64bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
