samm5506 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 After managing to FINALLY get to the installation/welcome screen of Kalyway 10.5.2, it seems as though its processing WAY too slow. During boot I get errors with "SAM multimedia". That's really all I recognized as an error. Anyway, during installing mac the calculated time goes up to 13 hours and 59 minutes, thats when I shut it off. My disc didn't seem to be doing anything. My Specs: CPU - AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5400+ 2.80 GHz Graphics - ATI Radeon HD 2900 xt Motherboard - Asus P5N-E SLI RAM - 2GB (I don't know the specifics) DVD+R/W IDE The HDD partition I am using has 100GB. If anyone can help, PLEASE DO! I want to get this installed as quickly as possible D: Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/155795-kalyway-1052-slow-installation/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synaesthesia Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Give it 15-25 minutes to install. If that doesn't work, burn the DVD again, it might be a bad burn. I don't know why Kalyway 10.5.2 is so popular. If you have lots of bandwidth get yourself iPC or iDeneb 10.5.6 - the latest and greatest.

I just looked at that iDeneb and it seems to have a lot more features! But, yeah, Kalyway 10.5.2 seemed to jump out at me at first. I don't know much about the OSx86 and just attempted the first thing I saw pretty much. Thanks for the fast reply though Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/155795-kalyway-1052-slow-installation/#findComment-1096349 Share on other sites More sharing options...
