Ive recently installed snow leopard on my hp dv6000, at present i have got everything working but i cant find a bootloader that works with it. Only way i can get it to boot up is using [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] which is a bit annoying so does anyone have any ideas of what would work with it?

 

When i use a bootlader i get past spinning icon to a blank white screen

hp dv9000

 

i used the system preferences

"start up disk"

 

setting my disk to the one with the os on it (this probably doesn't do anything but who knows)

anyway after that load [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] and tick easy beast

 

install

 

remove i boot and there you go

 

 

the white screen i get sometimes i fixed it by re installing fakesmc from [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]

 

 

also you may be able to boot in safe mode (hold shift and press enter) at menu for boot

Unfortunately doing this made no difference, any other ideas. Is there anyway to install [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] on hard drive?

i need some advice too.. i have tried installing different flavours of the osx86 but the only one which actually went to the installation phase was iDeneb 1.5.1 10.5.7..

i have an HP pavillion dv6602 au:

 

processor: 1.90 GHz AMD Turion 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-58

ram : 3GB Kingston DDR2

hard drive : hitachi 160GB

chipset : MCP 67

wifi: Broadcom

audio : Coxenant

video : nvidia GeForce 7150 / nforce 630m

 

i have 2 major problems:

 

the disk utility did not detect my hitachi hard drive so i had to install it on my seagate go flex usb hard drive...

 

the installation was successful using both the voodoo kernel or the Qoops kernel but after restart the screen with the white bg and apple logo and the loading circle hangs after about 4-5 mins...

 

any help or advice would b appreciated...
