Wayfarer247 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 That, my friend, is called a Kernal Panic. And it means you won't be able to do anything past that point with the settings you are using. If you are booting off the CD, try a different CD, or try different booting settings. Such as, "-x" or "cpus=1" or something along those lines. If you are booting into OS X without the CD then definietly use "-x" and see if that helps. Also, please post your computer specs so we can help you out more.

I've never done this before so i don't know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
