Succes untill i saw a picture of a lion, after that i press F8 and then add boot flag -v , but i got an error ebios read error device timeout Solved = My hard disk must be empty, so there aren't any partition in my hard disk. Third Experiment = Still using iAt*kos L2, hard disk was empty. succes and passed the error in second experiment, but i got a new problem, i'm stuck in here(see the picture below) I've tried this bootflag : -v --> failed (same with the picture in above) -v -f ---> failed (same with the picture in above) -v -f -x --> failed (same with the picture in above) -v arch=1386 --> failed (same with the picture in above) -v -f cpus=1 --> failed (same with the picture in above) Next i have tryied to use SATA HDD which is containing my Windows system, but i was create an Uanlocated space about 30gb. but it was same, i'm stuck in that error(the picture above) Setting HDD in bios = Enchached (because i don' found any AHCI setting in my bios) this my Bios setting : Sorry for my bad english, because i'm not usually using english (i hope you will understand what i mean). and i hope all of you can help me to solve this problem. Than you very much before UPDATEI'm trying to use iDe*neb 10.5.5 but stuck at this (see the picture). this picture come after Boot from CD (so i haven't seen yet the setup or iDeneb text) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
