Side.Step.Society Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I've scavenged through the forums, looking for a detailed way to go about doing this. The only thing I could find for 6400's was for Tiger and such. Anyways, I burned a CD with the Boot-132 iso with modified kexts, and I can get as far as the Leopard 10.5.0 CD booting, giving me the Apple Logo and the spinning gear, but once that's done, I get a quick flash of the "aqua blue" flat colour background, then my screen goes black. Can anybody give me some hints on what's going on here? And as far as compatabilty goes if I SHOULD get Leopard installed, what can I expect to work/not work? It's got the Intel Integrated Graphics, Intel Core Duo processor, 1 GB Ram, "Broadcom 802.11g" wireless, and Realtek audio I believe. I'm sure I've left some things out, but I haven't got the computer with me right now. ...I think that pretty much covers it... EDIT: Hooked up to an external display. At first, I get a bunch of flashing white, then some colour, then finally I'll get the Install screen, but it's covered in horizontal lines and it's only showing me about a quarter of the screen.

Dark Horse Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Here are some hints: You can get your specs. here: http://support.dell.com/support/topics/glo...IRONI6400/E1505 You can look at the OS X 86 HCL here: http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.ph...on_6400.2FE1505 Between the two of these, you should be pretty well on your way. dh Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/154519-dell-inspiron-6400-leopard-1050-retail-and-boot-132/#findComment-1088873 Share on other sites More sharing options...
