ECas123 Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Just got this notebook and was thinking about putting 10.5 on it but don't know whether to try Kalaway or iAktos. Here are the specs: AMD Athlon 64 X2 1.9 GHz Dual-Core Processor TK-57 2 BB DDR2 RAM 120 GB hard drive Super Multi DVD±RW DL drive ATI Radeon Xpress 1250 integrated video so can someone point me in the right direction?

ECas123 Posted October 6, 2008 Author Share Posted October 6, 2008 Hello? I'm just asking a simple question. No one else has tried it (tried searching) so I decided to ask you. This community's usually helpful to other people so why can't someone just give me a tip or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRASC Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Based on my friend's experience trying to install any OSX86 on his Extensa 5420 I don't think so. He did get them to install, but not to run successfully. The closest was getting it to install, but on the subsequent reboot, was met with a Kernal Panic almost immediately.

Would you happen to know why it didn't work? Is it the processor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRASC Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 :censored2: . Would you happen to know why it didn't work? Is it the processor? I think so personally. But I have seen YouTube vids of others installing on AMD processors, so that may not be the case. Other than that we're stumped. He since gave up on it "for the most part" & installed Ubuntu instead.

Was it the Extensa 5420-5038? because from what I've seen on Acer's website there might be a couple different versions of the 5420 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
