dabarrelman68 Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Hey there, it took me two days to finally get the file. I mounted the iso through daemon tools. Setuped a new virtual machine through VMware. Changed the CD location to the virtual cd drive. Then ran from the cd. Everything looks fine until... I got the error: "Load of /sbin/launchd, errno 8, trying /sbin/mach_init Load of /sbin/launchd, errno 8" I tried reseting it over and over, but it keeps saying the same error. I also tried burning the ISO with magicISO, powerISO, and ultraISO, but it only managed to copy these files: BOOT. BOOT.CAT BOOT0. BOOTH1H. BOOT1U. BOOTHELP.TXT CDBOOT. CHAIN0. Appoximately 128KB total... Where did the rest go? Is there something wrong with the ISO? IDK...let me know... Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Because you can see only the ISO part of the disk, there is another part that is in HFS+, for that you need a Mac OS to see it or TrasnMac or MacDrive. About the error, could be a bad Image, or wrong specs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabarrelman68 Posted March 22, 2007 Author Share Posted March 22, 2007 Could be my specs, but i'm not sure... I have a Toshiba Satellite M55 Laptop Xp home SP2 Intel Pentium M 740 Chipset: Intel i915GMS/i910GML 1.73GHz MMX, SSE, SSE2 100GB HD 512RAM I figured I downloaded JaS.10.4.8.AMD.Intel.SSE2.SSE3 because it says SSE2.

BodomChild Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Make sure you mount the ISO, and then use that drive as the CD drive. I had the same problem, and this fixed it for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smooth3006 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 i read a install guide that says only install sse2 and sse3 if you cpu supports it. according to cpuz my cpu supports both, so i assume i install the patch for both ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dabarrelman68 Posted March 22, 2007 Author Share Posted March 22, 2007 Alright, I managed to get passed the error message by using Alcohol120% to mount the image. While it is still loading, this warning message caught my attention: untitled.bmp After that, it starts off fine, but it keeps saying this message: untitled1.bmp I tried going into Disk Utilities, but it just shuts down... Anybody know how to resolve this problem? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCsHands Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 OK so this isnt very helpful but I have the same problem. I have tried to mount the tool with Dameon tools and as an ISO in VMware. I have tried some other sugestions that were given on the forums, tried putting the Hard Drive and DVD-Drive on the same IDE chain in VMWare, I have tried using a Virtual Drive and a Real ahrd Drive. I am at the end of my rope and I can think of any other ways to get to 10.4.8. I can install 10.4.6 just fine but 10.4.8 just doesnt want to install on my computer. If any one has overcome this and can tell us it would be a great help.

harvinder Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 I also have exactly the same problem! My lapto is Acer Aspire with Intel SSE2 instructions set. If I try to boot straight from the DVD it gives me an error saying "System config file 'com.apple.Boot.plist' not found" and If I use vmware to load the iso it gives brings out this error window as dabarrelman68 has got. I would really appreciate if someone could really show us the right path to install MAC. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrry Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Probably bad download, I downlaed 4 different ISO's till I got one that would boot and load the os. Some came close but noGUI, I deleted them and downloaded fromanother source. that worked fine. After a month of downloading and wasting time, I finally got onw thay works.

dabarrelman68 Posted April 2, 2007 Author Share Posted April 2, 2007 I give up trying to install osx86 for now...lol. I burnt it on a DVD, the installer finally popped up, but it kept crashing when it was installing JAVA. I restarted my laptop after taking out the DVD and the Darwin bootloader(?) couldn't let me go back to XP. Luckily I have MiniPE and had a ghost image of my stuff before I tried this :-) GL getting it to work you guys...just keep trying. As for me, I'll be back...one day -Dabarrelman I also have exactly the same problem! My lapto is Acer Aspire with Intel SSE2 instructions set. If I try to boot straight from the DVD it gives me an error saying "System config file 'com.apple.Boot.plist' not found" and If I use vmware to load the iso it gives brings out this error window as dabarrelman68 has got. I would really appreciate if someone could really show us the right path to install MAC. Thanks Hmm...I had the same problem, too. when you first boot from the DVD, press F8. A little command line will show up and type in -v Then press enter. Hope that helps :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvinder Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Hmm...I had the same problem, too.when you first boot from the DVD, press F8. A little command line will show up and type in -v Then press enter. Hope that helps :-) I tried the same thing but it just wouldn't want to load from the DVD with any options whatsoever -v, -x, -f, -v -s etc. even ? wouldn't bring any output other than the not found error message. However using VMWare I managed to go a little bit forward and I am trying different DVD's as I am writing and will post my reponses, for some reason I think most of the downloads I did were not corrupted. Reason behind this thinking is that I downloaded one iso and got its md5 and redownloaded the same iso again and again got the same md5, so I think there might not be a corruption problem or maybe it is god knows, I wonder why would people corrupt critical things like these makes you so angry. Hopefully it gets installed soon, i am really hoping so. Thnkas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
