BlackFox Posted April 15, 2006 Share Posted April 15, 2006 i used that exact same iso, rdb. everything seemingly installed perfectly but when it goes to reboot into osx i assume. it just hangs there and after about 5 minutes there a little crossed out circle over the grey apple logo. ive been trying to figure out what the hell to do. im about to make a boot disk and fdisk my harddrive in half so i can put windows back on. because i just completely wiped my drive to put osx on it (which might be part of the problem >.> Cyp12die4, as for your computer restarting, mine hasnt done that yet. i left it there for about 30 minutes and it still was just sitting there at the osx boot screen. i swear it feels like im a kid and playing monopoly again, do not pass go, do not collect your shiny new operating system Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/14025-boot-up-problems/#findComment-96566 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdb Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 BlackFox, i get that problem as well. When you start the installation i take it you didn't do an advanced install and check the patches for amd/intel sse2/sse3. When i try installing without those patches i get the same problem as you, and when i install with the patches i get the same error as Cyp12die4. Does anyone have any further ideas on how to solve this problem? I heard updating your BIOS has solved it for some people, but not for me Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/14025-boot-up-problems/#findComment-98364 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mebster Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 There's a guy out here who constantly writes "the so called universall dvd isn't so universal" when he reads of somene who used the universal dvd and has a probelm. He may be write. Try using the 0.4.4/5 or 10.4.6 from myzar or Jas. Thats should solve the problem.

rdb Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 yeah, it would appear 10.4.5 didn't work for me, however 10.4.6 works perfectly, no problems what so ever Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/14025-boot-up-problems/#findComment-99923 Share on other sites More sharing options...
