Ok so i can install mac on my dell 2400. Yes the video is screwed up but i can get it to run in color only in safe mode.

 

So here is what i have done

 

Ive installed the 915.zip file on my 10.4.1

 

edited the IOPCMatch to fit my hardware.

 

changed permissions to 755 and root:wheel

 

restarted.

 

ok heres where it goes wrong, i start and it looks messed up, yes i have deleted the files and then rebooted and then reinstalled the files again.

 

ok then it works and then it doesn't it goes on and off. I have to get into safe mode and delete the kext.cahce and the ohter file next to it. Even then it doesn't work all the time.

 

Any ideas?

 

Then my second problem is getting the dvd to run. before installing 10.4.1-> 10.4.3 the dvd program crashes. after installing the 10.4.1->10.4.3 the program runs but when i put a dvd in it gives me the dreaded restart pc screen.

 

I have installed the following patches

 

maxsuss 10.4.1 patch

 

maxxus 10.4.1-> 10.4.2 runtime

 

and the 10.4.1-> 10.4.3 upgrade by mac.

 

I was going to install 10.4.4 5 but it comes as an ISO and I don't know if i can DD that file since i don't have acces to a dvd writer.

 

 

Thanks for your help

You can download the 10.4.4/5 ISO DVD and use VMWare to install it... No need for a DVD writer ;)
