UPDATE:

After the startup crashes, it saves a crashlog file into the system library

now, it is just a bunch of numbers and letters to me

but it does say something about String 0 Crashed

what could this be? Is there any way to modify it or just skip over it all together? Help would be much appreciated

thanks!

First of all, helloooooo

My name is Miles, and i need some assistance.

I have recently installed iAtkos 2.0i on my Vostro 1500 (specs below) MANY times over, with different specs trying to tweak it and get it to work

but i have encountered the same problem each time. I press the power button -> BIOS -> Darwin -> Apple screen -> Small gray spinning wheel stops turning all of the sudden.

 

Although i am able to start it in -x safe mode, that is not enough as i have to install my video and audio drivers (which i have had no luck getting done in safe mode)

 

 

i have tried installing drivers with the linux dump file and the patcher, no go

NVinstaller doesnt work either.

The resolution of my screen is f*cked to hell and i really need to get my video card going with some quartz extreme for final cut!

not that it matters to anyone but this is esential to my school classes and if i cant get my video or audio to work i will

FAIL :)

 

so whoever may have a kind heart out there

please help <3

 

possibly a different iAtkos ISO? install method? this same issue occured with Kalyway...

so i am at a loss

it would be so good to have a response, or some help or something

other people have successfully installed this on their 1500's, so i am REALLY wondering why I cant do it myself

why it isnt even booting correctly could just mean i am doomed to be restricted from osx forever...

which would blow

alot...

any good opinions

WOULD BE SO OMG

SO

SO OPPRECIATED

THAT I WOULD LOVE YOU

try booting with "cpus=1" it usually helped when trying to boot with iAtkos installed. Let me know how it goes.

well... it worked kind of!!!! ughhhhhh

it got past the grey apple boot screen

into the BLUE screen right before the login window and then it turned

BLACK

GRR

cpus=1 -v? idk

ill try again... in the mean time THanks i am now one step closer!

post the output of cpus=1 -v please :(

 

ther is no chance to copy it as it runs through the entire process in verbose and doesnt stall once. going right to the blue screen and then black again. ima reisntall osx and see if it isnt any driver that i tried to install messin it up

Its a good sign that it isnt stalling anymore.. The video driver could be what is botching it up but it could be something else.

 

so if it is just the drivers that were mis-isntalled

could i just add cpus=1 to the apple boot plist file as a kernel flag or something? im really tired of booting in safe mode hehe

agh and no!

it still gives the black screen after booting!

oh well... just have to keep on keepin on

Yeah after i told you that you should check the video driver i rememberd you said you could boot in to safe mode which would be impossible if the video didnt work. okay. You could simply try another release.. Im using Jas 10.5.4 Server/Client. I dont have to boot with cpus=1 for this release. Try it :)
