Edwin .C Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I am completely a newbie on installing Mac OS X so I ain't sure what to tick on that Customize page... Here's my system information. CPU : Intel Dual Core 6600 2.40Ghz MB : ASUS P5B PLUS Vista-Edition RAM : Kingston 1GB DDR2 x2 DC : NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT Ethernet : AttansicL1 Chipset : Intel i965p Audio : SoundMAX Harddisk : SATA 250GB Parts 180 GB - Vista + Files 5.7 GB - iDeneb 10.5.5 Intel/AMD SSE2/SSE3 ISO Image Mounted 45 GB - Place for Leopard to be Installed. *I used a China program called HD Helper to mount the disk image to a partition I already fixed the boot0:error using the Vista disk so that won't be a problem The first time I followed a guide and when I finished and boot up, fixed boot0 and then the screen goes black. The second time to the thirteen time actually got the same thing, grey screen with an apple, and a grey cross sign on the top of that apple. After that I found my motherboard cannot detect the SATA, but eventually fixed it for no reason. Please help me to figure them out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SticMAC™ Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 At the Darwin Prompt, press F8, the on the input line type "-v" without the quotes, this will take you through the startup in verbose mode and show you what is wrong! Then come tell us! SticMAC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SticMAC™ Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 I just HATE it when people don't REALLY want help!! If you recorded long enough you would see that it comes up with "waiting for Root device" You should load the AHCI kext and set your BIOs to the same!

Edwin .C Posted October 27, 2008 Author Share Posted October 27, 2008 I misunderstood your solution and reinstalled the stuff again.. You mean I have to change the disk to AHCI? Options Selected This Time -Additional Fonts -X11 -9.4.0 Kernel -AttancisL1 -NVInject 256MB I forget one or two of them already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madhias Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Go into your BIOS and change from IDE or RAID to AHCI, then you probably don`t have the "waiting for root device message". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
