Try running the Kalyway install, when you partition it, choose MBR in the options menu, then choose customize the install, and make sure only MBR is selected, nothing else. That is what finally worked on my Dell Optiplex.

 

I've gut the same problem as he has. Is there also a way without killing my Win XP Partition?

This is far and away the best solution for me out of those that I tried. ToH and iATKOS would take over 60 seconds to boot whereas Kalyway boots in 10-15 seconds. All of my hardware is detected and displayed properly as well. After using that "Virginizer" that was posted eariler, I am basically using a vanilla install that runs flawlessly. Great work!

At the first pages of this thread i read that some others had the problem with the hanging grey apple screen, but it seems that noone found a solve for that.

But perhaps anyone has an idea what to do?!

Would be great!!!

 

Yes, I had this also. In my case it was the unsupported 8600gt that won´t work with the installed driver (don´t know anymore which one it was).

I reinstalled then without any graphics driver and everything worked fine.

 

The card works now in 1280x1024 after editing the boot.plist.

well, first of all, merry x-mas to all f you guys...

 

after trying for 2 complete days, around 40 hours of erasing, installing, erasing, installing osx leopard an a ASROCK ConRoe865PE we got it working :) and guess with what *G* with kalyways 10.5.1 dvd :D the iaktos version worked too, but after installing updates and some programs, the sound card vanished. anyhow, we then picked up our dvd with kalyways on it and after figuring out which bios settings were needed, i got it installed vanilla :)

 

the first problems we had, i won't come to them, they are of no importance to me, basically, everything that could have gone wrong, as stated already many times in this thread, went wrong.

 

the last thing today was to go out and buy a cheap usb keyboard, so that i could continue the installation of the vanilla leopard. pity that ps2 doesn't work with vanilla. i tried to change kexts which failed dramatically and after connecting usb that worked basically like a charm, only still hanging when trying to load the onboard realtek 8101L lan drivers. so disabling it in the bios, installing an old 3com pci card, baaam.. lan works too ;) would be great though, if the onboard lan would work, but for now, its solved.

 

we installed a nvidia geforce 5700LE with 256mb ram and used natit files. thats quite good. better then with one of the previous installations with nvinject.

 

the cpu we are using is an older dual core 1.66ghz intel chip, as of writing this post, i merely forgot which cpu exactly, but whatever. it works :) thats a great x-mas present :D

 

ok, onward. as for this system actually had windows xp on it, which badly crashed a few days ago, we decided to just try leopard out. that was one hell of a good idea ^^ we have 2 hard drives in the machine. the primary drive was partitioned to 2 partitions. one previously for windows, the other for data. anyhow, as for we didn't have any other harddrives around, we just killed the windows partition, at the end using EFI MBR.

 

the onboard soundcard seems to work, but won't show up in the system profile manager thingy. as this system is also being used by a german, we tried installing the german language pack from my original osx update dvd and yes... IT WORKS TOO *hop*

 

we even installed all available osx updates and yahoo, still working. some might think, wtf is he writing *G* but hey, this is really exiting :D

 

until now, it works except for "about this mac". clicking it results of the shell crashing and restarting again. we could avoid clicking on it, but whats the cause? is it fixable? if so, whats needed?

 

is the onboard lan fixable too? its not that important for now, but would be nice to have it somewhat cleaned out ^^

 

ah, and one other thing. what could it be if this colored ball pops up and the machine isn't responding to anything? or this message "you must press the powerbutton" or similar window... are there any logs which i can take a look into? i'm quite new to mac, having my macbook from the beginning of november after my vaio died :( btw. the best thing i bought in ages :D the next thing will be a full featured external keyboard.

 

take care ^^

did you install graphics drivers from install...

i think if you did and you can't load graphics hten you have to delete graphics cards kext like i had to do it for my card...

 

and then you should be able to get into osx at standard resolution.

HI ALL

FOR ALL HAVE This issue (after the end of the choice, osx return on the video) :P

(commande are after ">" on each line, before you find a comment.

 

Start your pc and press F8, here ask to start in single user mode :

to do that, write >-s and press enter

Your osx start in console mode.

Here, start to check hard drive >/sbin/fsck -fy and press enter

Osx scan you pc and does to answer you : File system was modified.

After we does to mount all drives >/sbin/mount -uw / and press enter ; Dont forget the "/" it ask to mount all drives

Them, now we does to active and creat password for the root account >passwd root

The system ask for a new pass : enter it and confirm an other time when asking (press enter each time).

 

Now we does to do something to notify to osx that we have end the Setup. >touch /var/db/.AppleSetupDone and press enter (Don't forget the "." before Apple).

And now you could restart >reboot and press enter

 

Now don't touch anything, osx boot and ask you to log in :P

Enter : log : root

and the pass you have choose before.

 

Enjoy :P

You are a godsend. I have been wraching my brains for the better part of today, installing and reinstalling with different options. Thanks. This did the trick. BTW, thanks Kalyway for this rls.

hey Dune,

 

i swapped the ide dvd for a sata dvd.

i can now boot the installer nativly,

i can start install. but every install at the end it stops and says it cannot be completed (im using a single dedicated disk for osx)

accompanied by a yellow exclamation mark , do you have any clue what could be the issue ?

 

Hardware :

 

Asus P5K (Intel P35/Intel ICH9)

X1950Pro PCI-E

Intel C2D E6300

 

i tried various installs

 

EFI / MBR

Vanilla (incl fix) / not

Snd driver / no sound driver

x19x0 drivers / no x19x0 drivers

 

no matter what , the install keeps crashing

 

 

edit seems like its running through now

 

 

ow btw, when you have a core2duo cpu like i do, do i have to check sse2 in the installer ?

never SSE2 for a core cpu family

 

for your config best choice are:

 

Vanilla kernel

Vanilla ACPI

 

Atyinject or natit x1xxx

EFI_guid

Hi All!

This sounds like a great release. Is there any way to turn the ACPI in the DVD bootup off? My system hangs right after the EFI is loaded and the SMBIOS and the ACPI. My bios has no option to turn on or off the ACPI feature and after F8 I cant see all the boot options when typing "?" after F8. Is there a list of the boot options somewhere for this release?

Thanks!

You get mouse tearing, I think. The line pattern occure when you move the mouse? Wich viedeo card did you use?

 

 

Thanks, i am using a PNY 7600gt 256 pci-e, and i suppose that it the right definition of what is happening on my safari screen (only and not always).

 

Any idea Macimesser or other users, is veyr appreciated. So annoying (not that i can complain too much, but still).

 

Thanks a lot,

 

Hope u all had a nice Christ-EVE
