Random hero Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Hey guys, when I put zephyroths rc2 version of leopard in, it'll load up the black and white darwin x86 prompt up and it'll go to the apple logo with the loading icon, but in my case right in front of the apple logo a "cancel" icon appears in the middle of the screen. I check my tower for functions and my dvdrom and hd arent making any processes, what's going on? msi K9AGM Mobo w/ amd athlon 2.8 ghz 4000+ 64 bit cpu vista ultimate 64 bit sp1 4gb ram 500 gig seagate drive and another 250 (ordered for leopard installation) bfg tech 512 meg 5600 vcard Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/105842-darwin-stops-booting/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wppley Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 When Darwin loads press F8 before he finish countdown, then type -v, get what the last line in verbose mode says and post here.

Random hero Posted May 22, 2008 Author Share Posted May 22, 2008 Ok i booted it with -v and i think the numbers you want are VIA 8237 SATA (CMD 0xe000, CTR 0xde00, IRQ 22 BM 0xd808) and the last prompt in the list says it's still waiting for a boot device Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/105842-darwin-stops-booting/#findComment-754777 Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddub Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 i've got this same problem, where abouts is the information you need, after you press -v and it goes into the scrolling text, the last line of it when its big or when it goes into the second screen where the text is smaller?

whatagonad Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 did anyone manage to install the Mac OS on the K9AGM motherboard succesfully? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/105842-darwin-stops-booting/#findComment-1086824 Share on other sites More sharing options...
