osxmv12 Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 I have been trying to install OSX Mavericks on my Laptop, Via different bootloaders, My hack was the best that got me installed. Everything else stucks at Apple logo.http://www.tonymacx86.com/374-unibea...-based-pc.htmlI have tried this guide with [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] but before apple boots up to the installation screen, logo disappears and some one suggest me doing a boot with -x it did and it says "Still Waiting for root device" and its loops.- I have tried different flash drives and ports.With my hack after Installation Apple logo shows up and then the screen goes blank.http://www.villman.com/Product-Detai..._5460_i5-3337U this is the specs for my laptop.I have installed Ubuntu On my laptop again. Can anyone please guide me on how to fix everything and install OSX Mavericks on My laptop. If Mavericks is stable on Laptops I do not want to dual boot.Thanks in Advance.
