Ok I need some help :*( I installed OSx86 it was working for a while than out of the clear blue I tried to boot into it and it would show the apple logo and than reboot the whole machine. I made a video of what it does

(sorry about bad quality)

Depends on what and on to you are installing. Seems like you are trying to boot the vanilla kernel. Try booting with any other.

 

yes you are correct it is the vanilla kernel. Im a xp user, so if you could break down what you just said to me lol. How do I try booting from a different kernel?

-v kernel_name e.g. -v voodoo

 

To try another kernel, it must be present on the install disk. Then installing, be sure to chose some additional kernels. e.g voodoo or sleep or any other present on the disk (contents may vary). Then booting type kernel name at Darwin prompt.
