polloloco Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Hi there and thanks for a great forum.I have recently installed Kalyway 10.5.2 in a dualboot with XP, using the guide on the osx86wiki. I can't boot into the system though. I have tried using gparted to specify my winXP as bootable, but after that no luck. I have tried adding chain0 and editing boot.ini, but when I select the OSX it just returns to the OS select menu. I used the sleep-kernel and added nvidia drivers (removed other languages than english). In the disk utility it confirms that there is in fact 6,0 GBs installed on the 30GB hfs+ journaled partition.What could be the problem? Thanks again. btw tried viewing the different partitions in acronis and fdisk and stuff from my hiren boot-disk, but none of the programs seem to recognize the partition maybe I should just retry the whole process.btw Hardware:C2D 1,83GHz2GB Corsair DDR2120GB Samsung spinpoint sata7900gtx leadtekgigabyte 965p-ds3 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/113654-after-install-no-kalyway-boot/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

The logo rotates but there is no hard drive activity. Should I abandon the project or have I customized the install wrong?

kytzu Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 reinstall and don't choose any graphic driver, is better to install it later. before that, you can press F8 at boot and try some options like -x then -f and see what happen Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/113654-after-install-no-kalyway-boot/#findComment-805466 Share on other sites More sharing options...
polloloco Posted July 3, 2008 Author Share Posted July 3, 2008 I managed to get into osx by doing what you said, but I tried installed nvinject and the same thing happened on reboot. I liked leopard but not in 1024*768 sound and network was functioning out of "the box" Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/113654-after-install-no-kalyway-boot/#findComment-805998 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kytzu Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 It's tricky to install video drivers and some are not supported at all, digg more on nvinject.free.fr forum. For resolution you can try to edit com.apple.Boot.plist and add (again, this works only on some cards): <key>Graphics Mode</key> <string>1280x800x32@60</string> Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/113654-after-install-no-kalyway-boot/#findComment-806677 Share on other sites More sharing options...
