starrstarr Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 Hello all I recently installed Kalways 10.5.1 installer and had to use -v cups=1 after F8ing during the boot. after that i checked everything that fit my computer and clicked on MBR (since GUID gave me b0 error when i installed.) after the install went perfect, i booted up leopard and all i get is a gray apple screen and nothing else.. i thought "maybe its just loading everything" and waiting almost 3 hours :/ is there something wrong with the installation or is it something else? (i had to use my ipod touch to try to read how to fix it and im still stuck with vista) Update: now at the apple logo it shows the loading circle, how long does it take?
