When it goes to boot, press F8 to go to boot options, type "-v" (without the quotes) and take some screen shots of that. I'm betting it'll say "still waiting for root device". The cause is that it can't detect any of your drives. The solution is to take the Marklar-Tiger dmg file and create your own install ISO; instructions are in this forum. And may I add, good luck.

Hi I'm new here :D ... I've been trying to install the osx too and I got the same "problem",

so I did what thedopefishlives sayed and you were right! it wrote the exact same thing... "still waiting for root device".. so I searched for your solution of making my own install... and I just couldnt find it... can anyone help me with a link to the thread?

thanks ;)

I had the same problem on a buddies machine. "The circle with a slash"

 

The problem was solved by putting the DVD drive as the slave on controller #1. If the drive was on controller 2 then the circle with a slash would show up during bootup of the install dvd. This was caused by an incompatibility with IDE controller #2 not being detected properly.

 

Slam DuNK!

 

Enjoy!

I'm currently experiencing this problem. I had successfully installed before with VMWare...but it wouldn't boot. So I just deleted the partition and I am trying to install without VMWare. When I installed with VMWare, I would get "No Operating System Found" (when booting with VMWare) and "Chain boot error" when booting from the boot selector. Anyway, right now I'm just experiencing the stop icon and the installer for OSX won't even load (I'm booting off an iso dvd; file: 10.4.6.dvd.iso). Here's a screen shot of CPU-Z, is my PC even compatible first off? I'm running on an HP DV5000z laptop.

Edit: Just rebooted using -v. I do indeed get the "Waiting for root device" message.

Yeah same with me. DVD should be Slave on controller #1 and this will stop. . .
