Hi,

 

I'm trying to get a fresh install of Leopard (from a Retail DVD) booted using BOOT-132. This is the first boot, so I should get the user registration boxes etc., but all I get is a grey screen with a mouse cursor and no Apple logo. Upon booting with -v, I'm seeing lots of network-related error messages, especially mDNS failing, sandbox initialisation failing and CoreServicesD being a wrong version etc. You can get an idea from the attached screenshot (it's difficult to photograph because they zoom by so fast).

 

I have to switch off the hard way all the time, which is why fseventsd finds all sorts of cruft from the last boot, but I don't think this is the problem.

 

The machine is a Thinkpad X60s, i945 chipset, GMA-950 graphics, with BOOT-132 in a small HFS+ partition called EFI (more or less following Munky's guide) and a completely unmodified vanilla Leopard install in a larger partition. (I've also got another partition with iDeneb from which I'm doing all the modifications, but the Leopard partition itself is untouched.) Extensions are currently the ones for GMA950, integrated framebuffer and AppleAHCI from iDeneb, then IOPCIFamily, IOAHCIFamily, IONDRV, IOGraphicsFamily and IONetworking from Leopard, and Disable.kext, dsnos.kext and some ACPI-related stuff also from iDeneb. Anything I can do? Does anyone else see similar error messages with BOOT-132?
