VMWare 6.0.2 + Leopard Error Before Install!

Hi,

 

I keep getting 'Checksum Cookie not valid' errors and launchd errors. And yes, i have mounted with Daemon Tools and set CD-ROM in VMWare to boot off Daemon Tools. I've also set the virtual cd-rom on the same ribbon as the IDE hard drive. Hard disk is set as persistant storage, and i've tried emulation as Win NT, FreeBSD, Other and Darwin.

 

Please see attached image. I've also tried Kalyway's release, LeoToH and now ToH RC2. All MD5's have been correct.

I have read a post of some one who got this working...

 

I got this error you got using a virtual drive, i burnt the image to a real disc and then i got all the way into the setup, and got the error about "DMA" or something...

 

There is another post on here with step by step instructions, so must be possible, but i dont think its by any means stable...

Is it a built in driver issue for the VMWARE and Leopard? i.e. the Leopard OSX does not have the drivers on to let it install on the VMWare?

 

Leopard has been a pain for a while... Tiger was no probs at all.

i really hope somebody finds a successful way of install leopard on vmware.
yep i did it i installed leopard 10.5.1 on vmware workstation on windows xp x64 and also on ubuntu linux x64 bits there are 3 videos under my youtube account take a look
I think you can't do this in vmware. :hysterical: I try Parallels and VirtualBox but they both stopped on changing resolution step.
yes is possible i made it take a look

Maybe it's just picky with which hardware it chooses to support. For laptop users with SATA hard drives, installation is nearly impossible because there's no way of fiddling about with your hardware e.g. you can't use a SATA to ATA bridge. I think that might be my problem.
