joey the poey Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Hi Guys, I've got an Abit IP13-Pro with 8gb, Q6600 and Nvidia GT8600 on which I've had SL run succesfully. (the only thing I noticed recently is that it seemingly has an issue with disk images, which I hadn't noticed before; it sometimes crashes when verifying them). I've tried installing Lion (cleanly) on another partition via the MyHack installer and Tony's [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] methods, but the installer stops after about 20% stating that 'an error has occured' and it can't continue. Installing from the SL partition doesn't work either, as it then states that this isn't a valid machine to install it on. The SL install was relativly smooth, once I figured out to insert pciroot=1 and arch=i386 in the command line, but Lion just won't play ball. I'm trying to install by booting into the Lion installer with the flags -v -x -s pciroot=1 after which it does start, but stops at 20% install; the target drive is a freshly formatted one. Mobo is set to ACHI and only 4gb of mem is currently installed; only sata drives are used. Can anyone help me, pretty please with sugar on top? Cheers, Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
