Lord Norr Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 I recently thought I would have another go at getting Leopard to run on my pc. This time I tried iDeneb v1.3 10.5.5 Leopard OSx86. However straight away there was problems. The disk booted fine and it installed very quickly, however the second it gets to boot from the HD my whole PC resets and loop continues. This is without any extra drivers. Only thing I check was the AMD option. Does anyone know why this does this? Or can someone recommend me a good build that will work with my rig shown in my signature? I really would appreciate any help anyone can give me in this regard. Thanks!

DoiX Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 did you select the chipset kext? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/128311-ideneb-v13-1055-problems/#findComment-908277 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Norr Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 At first when I went through the customisable options I selected only a few things. My ATI drivers, Forcedeath and thats it. I didnt know which chipset to use The choices were • AppleNForceATA • AppleNForceATA Test • MCP67 • ICHx Fixed • JMicronATA • SAS • SiliconImage • VIA-SB In fact I think I selectred AppleNForceATA. That constantly rebooted. 2nd time I installed I ONLY selected the AMD fix and nothing else. Still rebooted.

maclinux Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Don't know with this DVD, but I had this problem before. What worked for me was to also pick the VIA-SB chipset. At first when I went through the customisable options I selected only a few things. My ATI drivers, Forcedeath and thats it. I didnt know which chipset to use The choices were • AppleNForceATA • AppleNForceATA Test • MCP67 • ICHx Fixed • JMicronATA • SAS • SiliconImage • VIA-SB In fact I think I selectred AppleNForceATA.

Lord Norr Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 tried that and now it doesn't reset. However it now gives me the "waiting for root device" message. Almost there.

MGJulius Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Hey, Try to install the nForce test driver And if you get an instant reboot type this at the F8 prompt cpus=1 -v Good luck Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/128311-ideneb-v13-1055-problems/#findComment-908353 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Norr Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 Did as you suggested. However now the kernel just panics and asks me to restart the computer. Any thoughts? Really appreciate the help. I'm having to use my iPhone to reply on here.

Lord Norr Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 it's hard to say since there is something blocking the screen.

maclinux Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Did you select both chipsets? I mean, Nforce AND VIA-SB? Also, you should have at least two installations...one to test and one "stable" one were you can get back to troubleshoot if the other one doesn't work. I see you have enough HDD space. 10 Gb should be enough for a test partition.

Lord Norr Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 Currently I tried VIA & either Nforce or the test. Every of Nforce ends in panic. Dont use it and its root device problems. I'm using my trusty laptop to report all this Any thoughts? Update: Tried VIA & Nforce Test WITHOUT any other options, using the default 9.5 kernel. Getting instant reboots. Which is the best kernel to use? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/128311-ideneb-v13-1055-problems/#findComment-908600 Share on other sites More sharing options...
maclinux Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 I'd try with the XNU 9.4 kernel. Now I remeber!, i only used the VIA-SB chipset. Sorry I didn't remember before. It was weird but it worked.

MGJulius Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Hey, Is the panic from the com.apple.appleintelcpupowermanagement.kext Cause that will give you kernel panics on any machine. And your gonna have to select the 9.4Stage XNU Kernel / The 9.5 Vanilla will not work on AMD comps Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/128311-ideneb-v13-1055-problems/#findComment-908630 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Norr Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 Thanks peeps! Just trying that now. Will let you know in 10 mins! Fingers crossed this time.

Fergo Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 tried that and now it doesn't reset. However it now gives me the "waiting for root device" message. Almost there. I was having this problem. I solved by changing my SATA configuration in BIOS from IDE to AHCI. After that the system booted fine with iDeneb 1.3.

maclinux Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 After you deleted the AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext, you booted with the -f -v options? IYou also tried the VIA-SB only option when you installed? I would look into the Sata raid option (for the AHCI configuration), but I'm not really sure nforce has that option.

Lord Norr Posted September 27, 2008 Author Share Posted September 27, 2008 I tried -f -v but it still panics with the same message about the powermanagement. If I use only the VIA option then all I get is a waiting for root device message.

DoiX Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 from what i saw in the pics you provided.. Punk32 did a bubu when making it for AMD.. i think your best change is with leo4all or zephyroth(hell its made for AMD optimized with AMD juice:) ) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/128311-ideneb-v13-1055-problems/#findComment-908796 Share on other sites More sharing options...
