1337rice Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I have been following this guide for quite a while: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=39253 When my OS X finished installing, it gave the HFS+ error...so I scrolled down to the bottom for steps on how to fix it... The steps tell me to start by pressing F8 before the Apple logo appears... So I inserted the DVD (its a Kalyway 10.5.2), pressed F8, gave out an annoying beeping sound and just SORTA pauses the loading sequence in Darwin. I'm still pressing on F8..................but nothing happens, it just goes into the Apple logo screen, then eventually I hear music, a voice talking, and a blank screen. I did a search in the forum, I found out that SOME people have the problem with their graphics drivers on the Intel GMA X3100 but iAtkos works fine (downloading iAtkos V4.0i right now) Although the download is gonna take about 14 hours (because of p2p throttling)...I just want to know if there is a way to fix my F8 problem >.> because if F8 doesn't work...then I can't even type the command...
