Wman Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 It loads on the grey apple screen for a few minutes, then when it hits the blue screen, it just stays like that. I though it could've been loading so I left it for about 8 hours and still nothin. I've tried this a few times and I don't know what to do. I'm gonna try installing iDeneb 10.5.5, but what coul;d be wrong with this? -thx Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/136872-trying-to-install-iatkos4_i-on-acer-1690/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wman Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 Anyone? Is this just a lag, or has my computer ran into some problem?

Jakes Daddy Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Sounds like exactly the same problem as I have with iDeneb 1.3 10.5.5 on an Acer Travelmate 4150 I tihnk my problem is video drivers - I need to shoehorn the Intel 900GMA drivers in some how ....

Gujal Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Connect an external monitor and complete the Install and initial setup process. Once finished use KextHelper and install the patched AppleIntelIntegratedFrameBuffer.kext and restart, your laptop display will start working and you dont need the external monitor.

Wman Posted November 18, 2008 Author Share Posted November 18, 2008 keep getting a message that say sI have to restart after various percentages of installation. (THere was a problem reading your disc. Carefully clean the disk, and try reinstalling (no tdust on disk)) I also don't know what to select in customized (I HAVE done the disk extended journaled format + erase thing) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/136872-trying-to-install-iatkos4_i-on-acer-1690/#findComment-969591 Share on other sites More sharing options...
