jonno12345 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 hi, keep this in mind iam a noob. i have an acer aspire 3680 and iam trying to install ideneb 10.5.5... i install it but when it gets to the bit where it says tranfere from old mac to this mac after you have chosen your keyboard and language settins... i press 'tranfere nothing'.. it then loads for abit and keeps on doing the welcome screen over and over again. i think i have some settings wrong when i install it on the customise section. so could some1 please tell me what iam doing wrong and what settings i need. also if i need to download anything then please could you post it for me..... also if i have to add anything to the installation dvd (ideneb 10.5.5) then please can you tell me how to. thanks to all in advance and it would be a great help if some1 could help me out. thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/150125-installing-ideneb-1055/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
dparada78 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 i think i can help you.....boot in single user mode by typing -s at the darwin bootloader. You need to do this to bypass the apple setup manually. when you get to the prompt type and hit enter after each command: /sbin/mount -uw / passwd root (type in a password, but you wont be able to see it being typed) touch /var/db/.AppleSetupDone exit At the login screen type the word root for your username and the password you entered before in -s mode. Go to system preferences accounts, and create a new account with the plus sign. make sure allow user to administer this computer is checked. logout and log back in with the new account you just made.
