Hey Moes...

How are you doing?

 

I haven't tried installing Hackintosh (JaS 10.4.8 sse2 sse3 with PPF1 and PPF2.iso)

until just a few days ago.

 

It didn't go very well, it worked fine until i installed the broadcom driver.

Then it didn't boot, i tried again twice but i had the same problem.

 

I'd try again or try the leopard installation but my older brother with whom i share my computers won't let me.

He thinks i'm fu*king up our laptop and would rather have xp or ubuntu on it.

---

 

I wish i could have Macintosh or in this case Hachintosh on every computer i have.

Even if i cant have it on my laptop, atleast i have a mac mini.

 

Sorry to bother you.

 

 

if you join facebook, add me.

Hi! I also have a 5051AWXMi and have tried to install Kalyway and Leo4all several times with no result. I downloaded Leo4all v3 and followed the instrucions you gave. The installation finished successfully, but when I rebooted and tried to start Leopard it stops in the "still waiting for root device" stuff. How do I solve this??

 

Thank you beforehand!

Well ..u can boot from hd...till a certain point ...didn't u?......did u try boot with -v.....and check where the script holds.

In case u can't boot the hd perhaps mbr not ready......boot with the dvd....it starts the hd by default.

 

Perhaps do repair disc.....boot dvd>diskutility>repair permisions

 

Yes, it boots with -v till it gets to "still waiting for root device" and no further. :(
