Mastha-Hacker Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Hi, If the BIOS is booted, you see the message, press enter to install (or something like that). Press F8 then, and type -v, and press enter. You can see then if your installation stops, or if there is something wrong!

killerdeath Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 Hey, Yeah the boot up of the installation is fine its just when i wipe my hdd in the disk utility then choose all the customizations, click install, then i wait say 5 mins when it says calculating, the disk is still reading at that time then suddenly the disk stops reading and then the installation just locks up. Thanks for the replay anyway. but yeah im like stuck on that. and im not sure if it is what i have chosen in cutomizations that can cause this but yeah im stuck, lol. Thanks, KillerDeath.
