Hello,

 

Im having a bit of trouble installing kalyway 10.5.2, below are my system specs:

 

CPU: Intel E2180 dual core @ 3.2Ghz

MOBO: EVGA 750i FTW (nForce)

RAM: 4 x 1024mb corsair 4DHX @ 800Mhz (4-4-4-12 timings)

HDD: 500Gb WD SATA2

GFX: nVidia 7300LE PCI-e

DVD: Light-on SATA DVD drive and Pioneer IDE drive

 

I've got the kalyway 10.5.2 Intel/AMD DVD .iso that i downloaded and burnt off to dvd. I boot it up (at first was getting errors, but after reading up on it i swapped to my IDE drive and its all working now), and get into the installation. I go into the disk management and format my partition (20gb) to the Mac format (1st one on the list), then customise the instal options. I selected the nForce driver for my motherboard, and the nVidia graphics driver. The installation then checks the disk for continuity, and continues with the installation. It gets to 99% and comes up with an error, 'the installation cannot continue' and it says something about iphoto being different... I don't remember the exact error message, but its something like that. (or a similar 'iProgram').

 

Any suggestions?

 

Im going to try burning the DVD again at a slower speed to see if it burns correctly. But the weird thing is, during the installation, the dvd doesn't come up with any errors when it checks for continuity.

 

Cheers, any help is appreciated :P

Ok, so for those who get a similar problem here is the solution that worked for me.

 

In the installation customisation options, simply unselect 'iphoto' from the list, then instal like normal and it should work. If you have similar issues with another program, do the same for program x (the one you're having the problem with) and instal like normal.

 

It worked for me, so hopefully it'll be helpful for someone else.

 

I now have a sucessfull install, except the resolution wont let me be changed and things aren't running very smooth. I believe this is a simple graphics driver or 'kexts' or what ever it is called in OSX. Hopefully should be an easy fix :angel:

 

Cheers
