Jash Sayani Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Just formatted my HD with Mac OS X Extended (Journaled) and installed iATKOS v1.0 with Mac OS X 10.5.2 Heres the procedure I followed: 1. Formatted HD with Disk Utility 2. Wrote some files to HD with Darwin_boot script. 3. Customised Installation and added some drivers and EFI emulation 4. Installed Leopard and booted back onto the DVD 5. Opened Terminal and Updated the MBR with fdisk 6. Rebooted into Leopardwithout disk Now, when I switch my laptop on, I get a screen saying "press any key for boot options" (5)... And then the boot screen loads with Apple logo, and in two-three seconds, IT REBOOTS ! I tried pressing enter when when boot options opened up, I used "-v", but its still the same... Some help would be great... Thanks. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/113627-iatkos-endless-reboot-at-boot-screen/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

kytzu Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 try to boot with -f, I had once a problem like this and booting with -f was a workaround, if works like that, ad it in com.apple.boot.plist at kernel options Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/113627-iatkos-endless-reboot-at-boot-screen/#findComment-805446 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TjLaZer Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Obviously you selected wrong options in the custom install. Try again. I would reformat the HD and start from scratch. I would get iATKOS 4i or 5i and go from there.
