Hey first of all thanks Kaly and Dune, this release kicks ass !!!!

 

I'm running this on a Dell Opliplex GX620 - I only had to select one of the audio drivers to get the motherboard Audio working ( but I use my Toneport for audio anyway ) everything else worked out of the box !

 

The only problems encountered so far is that i need to have the install disk in the drive to boot otherwise i get the blinking cursor {censored}....... I installed Leopard with MBR cause I was tryin to get XP and Vista to Triple boot with it.

 

With Uphucks Tiger release ( never had graphics acceleration with this one ) I could create 3 partitions on my drive - install XP, then Vista, then Tiger, reset XP as Active partition using Vista install Disk, boot into Vista, use EasyBCD to add Tiger to Vistas Bootloader....... DONE !!! - a Triple boot using Vistas bootloader......... How come I can't do that anymore, I tried a heap of combinations, nothing works........... Any Ideas ????

 

So, overall an awesome release with everything working perfectly for me, just the issues with the booting ???

What would be the best mobo to use with this release.

What i mean is : All fatures should work like lan , sata , ACPi , sound , all cpu cores after installing with this DVD with no extra effort.

 

Am planning to buy a MOBo based on this feedback to make life a little easier... :D

I've tried searching this thread, but was unable to find anything that exactly matches the problem I'm having.

 

My specs:

Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 1.86Ghz

1GB DDR2-800 RAM

GeForce 7950GT (512MB)

ASUS P5NSLI motherboard

250GB SATA drive (for Windows)

150GB IDE drive (for Leopard)

 

I'm able to boot the install DVD properly (after entering "-v -x cpus=1"), but I'm having trouble with my HDD. If I format it as MBR, then when I try to install Leopard it says it is "unable to install some files" to my HDD. If I try to format it as GUID, it says that it is creating a partition but it does nothing. When I've selected "erase" instead of "partition," the same thing happens except it says "preparing to erase" and the cursor locks up.

Hey, im not sure if this question was answered or not, ive been reading this forum for days trying to figure it out. I succesfuly download and burned the official installation dvd, it works fine on my newer computer but not on my laptop. I want to put this on my dell inspiron 8200. I recently installed jas 10.4.5 on it with sse2 with no problem. But i wanted this instead. i put the dvd in the drive and boot up from it, i've watched it with the diags so i could see whats going on. it loads for like 4 minutes and then whjen it's loading the system.kext files the screen goes black and the computer restarts. This is an endless loop. Please tell me what i can do to fix this. i tried changeing bios like dune said on one of the previous pages but my comp didn't have some of the settings. Thanks!

I need help!

Every time I try to install this, it failes at javatools.pkg! I have burned the disc twice and they match the md5! The second time my dad burned it with his (real) mac!

 

Install failed: The installer could not verify the contents of the "Javatools" package, please contact the software manufacturer for assistance.

 

Is there any command I can put alongside vanilla and -v that will skip this package?

 

HELP ME :)

Kalyway 10.5.1 DVD installed on Vaio VGN-TZ17MN (a very small sub-notebook). If Mac OS would work on this laptop it would make it the best lap-top bar none.

 

I chose the vanilla install option on the DVD. It seems to have worked. The partition is MBR. I am not sure if I have EFI or not.

 

Computer booting fine into Apple. Sound, USB, DVD, Blue Tooth work fine. The screen works on 75% of the display (ist shifted about 2.5 inches to the left with the rest blank. Basically no wide screen but the picture otherwise perfect. It also does not see the intergrated network adapter which is a bigger problems. When it goes into sleep i can not bring it back without rebooting.

 

The hardware is:

 

Intel Chipse GMA 950, Ethernet Marvel Yukon 88E8055 PCI-E the Wifi adapter is 4965AGN. The grafics is Intel INtegrated I am not sure wha the number would be.

 

Is there a simple place where i can download and install direvers (kekxts?) for those? i tired to terminal scripts but I could not figure them out or make them work. How can I tell if I have EFI or not?As you can imagine it is almost there which is really frustrating.

 

Any help would be most appreciated and thank you all very much for the wonderful work. Cheers, Y

I believe this problem is solved by going into the Bios Menu (probably "f2" at POST with Sony) and choosing "Extend screen option enabled" or maybe it was the other around... you can find out fast enough. I believe this fix is even listed at the dusty ol' Wiki HCL for 10.4.8... TURN off sleep on your laptop in the system prefs, until you have found out what works, to avoid having to reboot. Just leave the screen saver/monitor sleep activated, that should save alot of energy in any case. For me, the standard Kaly options seem to work fine with sleep on the Sony SZ5... magic!

 

With the Sony SZ5 laptop, I assume I have EFI because I am running the vanilla kernel (impossible otherwise) and "About this MAC" reports "MacBook Pro! Otherwise on the EFI site or here I remember some GREP command within the frameworks to see what/which efi you are using... seek-and-yee-shall-find.

 

good luck,

ninetto

I installed kaly on my toshiba r15s829 and it successfully installed. on reboot I get a "b0 error" and that's it nothing else happends??!?! any idea?

 

Toshiba R15-S829 Specs

Intel Pentium M (1.5 GHz) , 2 GB DDR SDRAM , 80 GB IDE ,

 

You probably selected MBR EFI when your disk was partitioned as GUID, or vice versa.

 

Kaly or Dune, you should really put this in the first post, because this question keeps coming back and people are not willing to read the thread before posting.

Instant reboots during install kext loading....

 

I have been trying to install KALYWAY 10.5.1 on a computer where I used to, and still have a working osx86 10.4.5. It's a custom P4 SS2 only with an Intel motherboard.

 

However, the install process instantly reboots during one of the kext loads. I have tried -v but there is no way I have time to see which kext causes the reboot. A GUI never comes up. I have also tried most boot options found in this thread, none help.

 

I have tried the same install DVD on another computer, where it boots to the GUI.

 

Is there any way to figure out which kext causes the instant reboot?

 

I manage to see the instant reboot is caused by some System.kext.. before the screen goes dead. This is with boot params '-s cpus=1'. What other params could I try?

 

Is there not any way to slow down or log the loading process to see which kext causes the instant reboot?

Is there anything we have to put on the DVD in addition to the ISO file? I just put the ISO and when I try to install, it goes to the Apple loading screen and then I get this circle-slash thing. It just freezes at that point. I waited like 5 minutes after it came up, so I don't think it works.

How exactly did you burn the ISO? It's a disk image, so you don't "put it on the disk." You burn it directly, and there's no way to put any other files on the same disk. On Windows, I recommend using Imgburn.

I dunno if this happens/ed to anyone.

 

Here the installation takes ages, the "DOS" part takes a lot of time and when the GUI cames it is very slow.

The "DOS" part scrolls very slowly meaning that it is taking too much time to load from the DVD.

Never happened on any other MACOS releases. Even with Kaly's release of Tiger.

 

I´ve burned three times and the last one I re-downloaded the ISO from the Torrent.

 

MD5 sums are fine, but this is making me mad.

 

Any clues?!
