Installation on a Dell Dimension 8400

[Nod7667]

I am attempting to install OSx86 on my old Dell Dimension 8400.

 

I get all the way through the install until it says "About 2 Minutes" remaining, It then locks up for a few minutes, restarts, and displays a b0 error. I looked it up on the Wiki and followed the instructions, But the only Startup Disk available is Network Boot.

 

Any Ideas?

 

Im thinking maybe it has something to do with an older version of the Install Package, but tell me what you think before I burn another DVD.

 

Install:Kalyway Leopard 10.5.1 SSE2 SSE3

CPU: Intel Pentium 4 3.4 Ghz

RAM: 3GB DDR (Not sure of speed)

GPU: Nvidia 6800

NIC: Onboard Broadcom NetLink 57xx

 

If im forgetting anything feel free to ask.

 

Thanks in advance,

Alex

There may be in an issue with a certain package (whether it be corrupt, etc.) on the disk, as you alluded to. A similar problem happened to me (Couldn't verify the Essentials package), and all I needed to do was perform the install over again. Since this seems a bit more complex, I would make sure the MD5 of the ISO is what it should be, and if it is, burn another disk.

Yeah, The MD5 did not match up. I am now downloading the official Kalyway 10.5.2 Release. I will edit this post with more information once that is complete.
