verdant Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 I dont know where that stuff is in the garbage I see in Leo4all v3 but I did name the partition mac is on as Mac OS X is that a problem  The information you need to provide to get help is not in Leo4All v3.....?  Did you partition your OS X volume as Master Boot Record (MBR) or GPT, and format it as Mac OS Extended (Journaled)?........also name your volume as Mac_OS_X to avoid spaces in the name........

Swhay Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 That picture is due to a kernel panic, you must boot with the -v flag to get a listing of the boot process to see why you are getting a kernel panic. As other posters have said, please provide your system specifications such as the make and model of your motherboard, processor, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nintenno Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 when you boot with -v, it tells you what is causing your kenel panic so if you take a picture of it, it might be easier to diagnose  no one can help you here if you dont do that because nobody knows what the issue is  or at least write down what it says  do you have a cell phone with a camera? use that and then email it to youself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewBean90 Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 it says what it says in the picture the kernel itself nothing is wrong when I press -v in the code but when I try to load mac this shows up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacManX Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 When you boot with -v you should get lots of diagnostic messages. Are you getting any messages or is it going straight to the kernel panic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewBean90 Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 lots of diagnostic messages but nothing says failed or anything and then goes straight to boot but when it trys to boot it does a kernel panic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hackz Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 So if i understood your problem,when you are in the phase boot,you can't digit on your keyboard the v letter? if so you costumized your machine as a rapid boot mode,to do ,put your DVD installation end config /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist and put a v,look around how Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
