axhi Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 I have 10.5.2 kalyway dvd and it has worked before, now I'm loading and it loads loads, then straight restart, does it all over again, and again, and again. AMD Phenom 9850 Biostar 790gx This is a new processor/mobo combo than I used on the first osx86, but I thought there was AMD support. Maybe I'm wrong in assuming this should work? Thank you in advance! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/135555-no-error-message-just-restart/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gujal Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 You need to patch the 10.5.2 Kalyway with Zef's Chameleon Bootloader patch. This will enable Phenom CPU support. You can get the PPF Patch at Zef's site chameleon.osx86.hu Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/135555-no-error-message-just-restart/#findComment-960452 Share on other sites More sharing options...
