Sabr Posted April 18, 2006 Author Share Posted April 18, 2006 Wow, seems quite a few are getting Debugger/Kernel panics... I would suggest to you all that you make a seperate topic for them, because my knowledge of Darwin is extremely limited (I'm more of a GUI guy instead of command lines and code, etc...). I'm sorry I can't help you guys anymore... It's strange that it works for some but not for others... It's all about hardware. Once again, sorry...

Sabr Posted April 19, 2006 Author Share Posted April 19, 2006 thanks SABR, it works almost perfectly on my pata drive. only thing is the marvell yukon that is killing me, since in the drivers section, they are still in development and i dont know if i want to try something that is sort of risky. LKU1, I found a topic that may interest you! nForce SATA Workaround Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg If you can boot the DVD manually, but not through VMWare, then why do you need to use it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Caulder Posted April 22, 2006 Share Posted April 22, 2006 If i were to format the new parition that i jsut created, then it would remove the active partition from the other partition. I did make a bootable CD for partition magic, so i can enter FDSIK and change the active partion, but i dont want to take any risks at all.

Jonpage Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I would like to first thank SABR for a great guide. I have spent days trying to get OSX to install natively without any joy but had no problems installing onto a clean Drive using the VMWARE approach. My problem is that now I have successfully installed OSX it crashes during the boot up with the following message. My system is AMD 64 3000+ 2 Gig mem Nvida 5700 OSX version JAS 10.4.6 I realise I have to repair permissions and run AMD enabler but I’m not able to do so. I have selected the correct AMD options during boot up. Any help would be appreciated. Regards Jon error.bmp error.bmp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabr Posted April 25, 2006 Author Share Posted April 25, 2006 Hey Jonpage... Thanks for the nice comments! I enjoyed making the guide.... Anyway, the problem your having is probably better off being talked about in a different section of the forum (PC Forum -- OSx86 Installation), since I am really no good with errors like the above. That is one of the main reasons I decided to make this guide - because it was a simple and easy way to install without having to go through command lines, etc... I'm sorry I can't help you any further, however, I'm sure you'll get this problem solved if you ask here: http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?showforum=18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjohnson Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 I'm getting an I/O Error when I try to boot native after installing vmware. it seems to be running fine when it starts repeating "disk0s1: i/o error". It does boot in vmware perfectly though. Any help? trav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabr Posted April 28, 2006 Author Share Posted April 28, 2006 Not too sure what that's about... You might want to have a read here: http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?sh...isk0s1+io+error and then do some searching of your own. It does seem it's a problem that isn't too hard to solve. One guy in that thread says to use DiskWarrior: http://www.alsoft.com/DiskWarrior/ Good luck in getting it to work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brockwitting Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Ok, I have done all the steps, and got the Chain0 file from the net, and installedd OS X to a partition on my ony Hard drive. Even after modding Boot.ini, upon boot, I have no option for OSX, and When I get back into XP, the boot.ini file is missing the last line of code, and looks like it did b4. Can u send me a chain0 file and your instructions on the boot.ini, just in case the ones I used were messed up? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrKaufman Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 First off, thanks for the guide Second off, when I tried to partition my DMA HD with the disk utility in the installer, I got an "Invalid Argument" error. Now it refuses to partition the disk unless I wipe it completely (windows install is on this drive) and in partition magic it shows my whole drive as unallocated space. What should I do?

siksik6 Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I too, get the "Your virtual machine has sent an ATAPI (CD-ROM) command that is supported only when programming the drive via DMA" error.. OS X installation then proceeds to hang. Others have mentioned that they got past this, but not how! Anyone please? cheers Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siksik6 Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 Eventually worked it out, it's a bad disk image. Downloaded another and tried it, and now installing without any issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
