Hello All,

 

I have installed Mac OXS for Intel on my PC. The installation went through normally, using disk utility to make the partition using all defaults.

 

The problem is that the OS will not boot. After POST, there is a blinking cursor in the top left of the screen and nothing more there after. This does sound like some kind of MBR issue to me, but I am not familiar with how OSX is interacting with my PC.

 

Has anyone seen this type of error condition before and if so what can I do to correct it.

 

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Hi!

 

I wished that this post was the solution and not the I-join-your-club-post. But it seems like I have the same problem. When I try to boot OSX all I get is the black screen. I use the OSL2000 boot loader (Link) and it worked to boot the CD and to install OSX (10.4.5 (MacOSX_10.4.4DVDPATCHED_Myz)) but when I tried to start it again nothing happened.

 

I'm running the OSX on the same hard drive as Windows XP.

Pentium 4 3 Gh with HT

512 MB ram

ATI Radeon 9800 Pro

And usb mouse and keyboard

 

I appriciate all the help I can get!

Thanks in advance!

/Igor
