Hi everyone

 

I've installed JaS 10.5.4 on this system

When i boot it without the DVD it loads the grey screen with apple logo, then goes to a darker grey screen, where there is a black mouse cursor, and i can move it.

thats as far as it goes

 

if i type something like rd=disk0s1 at F8 prompt for disc, it boots fine into the OS.

what is going on?

thanks in advance!

I have this same problem with JaS as well other than the hard disk issue. I can't get darwin to install correctly to work on it's own, intel picks up it's own boot before anything else can so i don't think i'll be able to boot with the rd=disk0s1 prompt.
