hi, i have tried installing leopard a few times, with no success. what happens is that i first format my hdd (usb) as mac os (journaled), i then proceed with install. i don't think any of the patches apply to me so i decided to just install the main system. it installs but after the first re-boot, i get the grey screen with the spinning set of lines. it spins for about 15 seconds and then it just stops. i left it for about four-five hours and it still didn't move. does anyone know the problem? the image i am using is the one you have to unpack and burn in os x itself and the .iso is called kalyway_osx86dvd_Leopard_9a527.iso. The following are my system specs:

 

Dell Dimension 9150

2gb ram

ati radeon sapphire x1950 pro wit 512mb gddr3

intel p4 wit ht technology (sse, sse2, sse3)

120gb usb external drive

 

this set-up worked very well with os x tiger (4.6 & 4.8)

 

i would be very greatful if anyone could help me with my problem. thanks in advance

 

p.s. i have attached the screen i get stuck on

same problem for me. On Aspire 9920 with nvidia 6800 mobile. Seems to have something to do with the graphcs: when the spinning cercle crashes, the display get's a little bit darker.

 

I installed Nvidia-driver while Kalyway install.

this is the moment of crash when the freshly installed Leopard boots for the first time (in -v mode):

ok i have decided to try a new image, is this a good one:

the .iso is called ToH_x86_9A581_RC2.iso

where do i burn this, in mac os x or in windows?

also, are there any patches i need to apply?

thanks

 

That image works fine for me.

 

Any burner software wil work, both in windows and mac.

 

No patches are needed as it is already patched.

 

Good luck. :D
