bitblaster Posted November 24, 2006 Share Posted November 24, 2006 All right, I have the disk in, its reading it, I have the apple logo, then the circle thing... and I have this white square with this grey O with a / through it... I'm assuming that means that there's an error? Thanks...

warped1 Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I had the problem described with the DVDRom on the second chain. I moved it to the slave on the 1st and the problem went away. Later I replaced the cable to the DVDROM and could use it on the 2nd IDE without issue. Wierd thing is windows didn't care.

bitblaster Posted December 16, 2006 Author Share Posted December 16, 2006 yeah, but this is a laptop, so it isn't like I can change much on it.

Rammjet Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Try installing through VMWare in Windows to your hard drive. After installation, you should not need to use VMWare to run OSX: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=11314 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/34109-a-no-symbol-appearing-during-boot-of-dvd/#findComment-256378 Share on other sites More sharing options...
