cm0002 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Hello I'm having a having a very odd problem with my fresh installation, it seems to hang at the apple logo during boot, using -v show the boot loader loading the kexts in stuff then at the point where it hands control over to the OS it looks like its going to load then nothing just a blank black screen i left it for hours and nothing changes. my specs: Intel 945GC chipset Intel GMA 950 graphics Realtek ALC888 audio BCM43xx Wlan pci card 2GB ram DDR2 SDRAM 320 gb SATA HDD Intel Celeron D 360 3.46 GHz single core i have attempted reinstallation many times, erasing the HDD each time. The distros i used are iAtkos L1 - Lion, Hanged at CD boot didn't even make it to install iAtkos S3 V2 installs but hangs upon first boot - set drivers accordingly, even set to use the Intel SATA drivers. reinstalled many times with a different boot loader selected each time, and each time same problem Then i used a version off tpb made by HAZARD that installed with correct drivers set with the same problem upon first boot Then i used iPC 10.5 again set drivers but it immediately rebooted the computer after selection in the boot loader after install I don't know what i seem to be missing, the hardware seemed to check out on HCL when i initially embarked on this project here are the 2 links with more info on this computer http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/documen...ct=3377251#N194 http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/ca/en/ho/WF...1-80159593.html the RAM and HDD vary from the link because they were upgraded, as shown in my spec list above thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noam AA Posted November 2, 2011 Share Posted November 2, 2011 i don;t think Lion will run on Single-Core Celeron PC, and if it does, then there must be a special kernel for it. you need to find tutorials for SL with your CPU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cm0002 Posted November 3, 2011 Author Share Posted November 3, 2011 that would explain why it hung at the installer for lion, unlike the others i have tried which actually install correctly and hangs at boot, and i have found an old 10.4.4 iPC(i think) disc that also has the same symptoms as the other discs, installs fine and hangs at boot, thanks for the reply Btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nyolc8 Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 I think if the screen gets black, you have some graphics card problem. Maybe you have to find a proper kext for that Intel GMA 950. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
