teehee Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Hi, Im using the HOTiSO 10.4.6 installer DVD with a DVD-RW When i try to boot with it, Darwin/x86 loads and asks me to press any key if i want to install osx after i press any key... i see the grey apple screen with the thing near the bottom that keeps spinning it continues like this for around 10-15 minutes, after which i got fed up and tried again...same result. is there a problem with using dvd-rw's? i would try dvd-r but i dont have any. Or, does it always take this long, and i just have to be more patient? Thanks a lot! EDIT: ok so i ran the installer with -v this is what i get kernmaxvnodes: 16896-2500 Creating RAM Disk for /Volumes disk4: 1024 sectors in 2 cylinders of 16 tracks, 32 sectors .5MB in 1 cyl groups (16c/g, 4.00MB/g, 128i/g) super-block backups (for fsck -b #) at: 32, Creating RAM Disk for /var/tmp Warning: 256 sector(s) in last cylinder unallocated disk5: 256 sectors in 1 cylinders of 16 tracks, 32 sectors 0.1MB in 1 cyl groups (16c/g, 4.00MB/g, 32i/g) super-block backups (for fsck -b #) at: 32, Creating RAM Disk for /var/run Warning: 256 sector(s) in last cylinder unallocated disk6: 256 sectors in 1 cylinders of 16 tracks, 32 sectors 0.1MB in 1 cyl groups (16c/g, 4.00MB/g, 32i/g) super-block backups (for fsck -b #) at: 32, Launching Crash Reporter July 18 00:45:58 localhost lookupd[51]: NetInfo conenction failed for server 127.0.0.1/local Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
