james123 Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I have tiger-x86-flat.img and VMware 5.0. I don't really want to install tiger on a separate drive I'd just like to be able to boot it inside on linux (i'm using mandrake 10 and also have gentoo on separate drive) I can get the image to boot but it gets to the apple splash with a clock type prgress indicator and just keeps going around. I've left it for several hours and nothing happens. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niteice Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 What processor do you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Bond Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 James...you mean the grey Apple splash, with the spinny indicator? Try booting with the"-v" flag to boot in verbose mode. It may give you a better idea of where it's hanging! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james123 Posted March 3, 2006 Author Share Posted March 3, 2006 Yes that's the screen I get. I tried the -v and I took a screen shot when it hung. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
