Elv13 Posted April 9, 2006 Share Posted April 9, 2006 install osx in vmware then try to boot nativly (after editing boot.ini with chain0, of course) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/14470-cant-install-1044-or-1045-on-pentium-d920-intel-945gnt/#findComment-92808 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bochenn Posted April 10, 2006 Author Share Posted April 10, 2006 i will try to install it via VMWare, but can you tell me more about that boot.ini configuration? where is that file located? thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/14470-cant-install-1044-or-1045-on-pentium-d920-intel-945gnt/#findComment-92952 Share on other sites More sharing options...
forcer Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 boot.ini is located on your windows partition eg. c:\boot.ini You will need to find chain0 in your OSX installation and put it to c:\ then, you can insert this line to boot.ini(edit it if your disk/location differs) c:\chain0="Apple Mac OS X 10.4.5" This will only work if you have separate disk(not partition on the same disk where windows is located) If you have one disk and NTFS(windows) and HFS+(MacOSX) on it, I prefer Acronis Boot Selector. Ofcourse, this makes sense only in case you have MacOSX successfuly installed on your disk.

Any help? thanks Try to 1. update your bios to latest 2. disable all integrated devices(sound, network, etc..) 3. disconnect all pci/pcie devices which can cause kernel to crash.

esc2 Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 By accident I discovered another way to do it. I had installed OSX86 10.4.5 on my AMD64 machine. Then when I got the Intel 945GNT with Pentium D920 I moved the hard drive over to the Intel machine. On the IDE controller was a blank hard drive on Master and an empty DVD drive on Slave. The OSX drive was hooked up as SATA in IDE mode. Since the OSX SATA drive was the only bootable device listed in the bios it went there and booted. Seems to be running nicely. (I'm using the onboard Intel GMA950 video, not an ATI card. Don't know how that impacts things).
