Blinking Cursor After Successful Installation

[net101]

System Specification:

 

Asus W3H00A Laptop

Intel Pentium M 740 (1.7GHz) (SSE2)

Graphics - Mobile Intel 915GM/GMS/910ML

RAM - 2GB

HD (IDE) - 80GB newly installed (empty/No OS)

DVD Drive - Internal IDE

 

1) After pressing F8 and typing -v flag, installation begun errors picked-up as follows:

 

in6_ifattach: Lo0 failed to attach a linklocal address

 

Kextd[47] - can't add repository (not a directory)

Resetting I0Catalogue

kextd[47] - root filesystem is read-only; skipping link data integration

 

then, just Blue Screen. DVD stopped spinning. Nothing happens after that.

 

2) Tried again but this time used flag -x

 

Installation proceeded and after installation "Restart" is requuired.

 

Then just a blinking cursor.

 

3) Tried this commands to resolve issue ( so I thought):

 

fdisk -e /dev/rdisk0 (return)

 

flag 1 (return)

 

update (return)

 

write (return)

 

then prompted with: 'Device could not be accessed exclusively'

 

typed in: 'y' (return) and quit

 

Result: Blinking cursor (unresolved)

 

P.S.

New to Mac here but experienced in Windows, trying out Mac for future laptop. This is my very first post. Please help will be very greatful for any advise. Many thanks.
