I'm trying to install Tiger 10.4.8 and I get exactly the same problem. My machine also has an AMD processor, but the other hardware is different. I've also tried typing in -v to no avail. I have no idea what could be causing the problem.

Hi there.

I installed Tiger 10.4.8 on my Compaq Presario V4125cl with no sucess.

Then tried with 10.4.6 and instalation went fine, just no load (blue screen) after instalation

So I decided to upgrade to 10.4.8 and boot only for one time, now it doesn't load.

 

Any help?

 

My laptop:

Compaq Presario V4125cl

Intel Celeron M 1.4GHz

1GB of RAM

120GB HDD, 2 partitions (90GB XP , 20GB osX)

Intel Mobile 915GM motherboard.

I decided to try the VMware method of installing Mac OS X. Just google this and follow the instructions. In this case, the install DVD succesfully booted and I did not get a "stuck on kernel version" error, but now my virtual Tiger is stuck on the apple logo.

 

In Short: use the vmware method to avoid getting stuck on the kernel version.
