Kernel Panic before even installing OSx86

[Soorbob]

I have not got anywhere yet, just booted from the disc and the first thing I get is a grey Apple logo and then suddenly I get a what I believe is called Kernel Panic. I'll post a pic of it in a few seconds. I have an AMD HP Laptop and my RAM is 2GB

 

Here is a pic

Try booting with the cpus=1 option.

 

Restart...F8...(prompt) boot: -v cpus=1

Try booting with the cpus=1 option.

 

Restart...F8...(prompt) boot: -v cpus=1

 

So I press F8 when its booting up then I select Safe Mode with Command Prompt and type

 

-v cpus=1

 

??

 

Well I tried that and I got a different error although I believe this time it wasn't a Kernel Panic:

 

 

Every time a problem gets resolves, I get another one

Hey buddy even I am facing the same issue......

 

I was using the iatkos V2 on my intel machine and it was working perfectly.

 

Now that I have upgraded my system I am not able to get the mac installed..

 

My config is :-

 

Amd phenom II x4 965 black edition 3.4 ghz

Asus M4A78T-E

Corsair 4gb 1333 Mhz

Samsung sata 1.5 tb

Seagate baracuda sata 500 gb

Seagte baracuda sata 1 tb

Ide dvd writer

 

I have downloaded the iDeneb v1.3 10.5.5 and patched it with nforce ppf but on booting it always gets stuck on still waiting for root device

 

I tried F8 and entered mach_kernel rd=disk0s1 -v and on entering this it detects the samsung hdd and doesn't give me the still waiting for root device error but it gives a cpu panic error and the shows darwin kernel and gets stuck on tht screen

 

One more strange thing tht happ is tht till the time I do not keep on moving the mouse the progress is not shown , the moment I move the mouse it shows the next lines etc but in the end gets stuck on the same either still waiting for root device or on the cpu 0 panic

 

I have tried a couple of settings in the bios

1) Changed the storage controller from ahci to ide and vice versa

2) Disabled all onboard devices except usb

3) Tried with all the onboard devices enabled

4) Changed the usb 2.0 from hi speed to full speed ( which helped me earlier on intel )

5) Disabled all the hdd except the primary hdd

 

Tried enetering mach_970 to check but it doesn't load tht from the dvd...

 

Need help guys...if neone can direct me to a guide or help me with a solution as to which version shud I install 10.5.6 , 10.5.7 , 10.5.8 ...

 

 

Thanks in advance....

-v busratio=20 cpus=1 busratiopath=3 maxmem=2048

or

-v busratio=20 cpus=1 busratiopath=3 noapic maxmem=2048

Try this...I did this on my hdd before I started to install leopard....

 

Preparing the Hard Drive for OS X

 

1. Make sure the Hard Drive has been wiped clean (just format it).

 

2. Give the Hard Drive a Label (In My Computer, Right Click > Rename).

This is so we can easily distinguish it from any other hard drives on

your computer. Make sure any partitioning software, like PartitionMagic

or Acronis Disk Director is closed.

 

3. Open up Control Panel, switch to the Classic View on the menu on the

left (if you aren't already in classic view) and double click on

'Administrative Tools' then double click on 'Computer Management' when

it appears.

 

4. In the Computer Management window, Click the '+' next to Storage in

the left-hand pane and click on 'Disk Management'.

 

5. You will now see a list of all the drives on your computer. Find the

one which matches the label you gave it in Step 2. Note which Disk

number it has (e.g. Disk 1 etc.) then close the Computer Management

Window. (Be ABSOLUTELY SURE you have the right one, otherwise you could

end up wiping the wrong disk!)

 

6. Now Click on Start > Run and type 'DiskPart' into the dropdown box

then click 'OK'.

 

7. An MS-DOS Prompt should appear with 'DISKPART>'.

 

8. Type in

CODE

select disk x

(where 'x' is the number of the disk, you noted down in step 5) and hit

return. You will receive confirmation that the disk has been selected.

 

9. Type in

CODE

select partition 1

and hit return. You will receive confirmation that partition 1 has been

selected.

 

10. Type in

CODE

delete partition

you will receive confirmation that the partition has been deleted.

 

11. Type

CODE

select disk x

('x' is the same as in Step 5)

 

12. Now Type in:

CODE

create partition primary id=af

Disk Part will confirm that it has created the partition.

 

13. Now type

CODE

exit

and the DOS prompt will close, your all set to install Mac OS X!

 

Also is ur hdd sata or ide , make sure ur bios storage controllers r on ahci mode or sata mode....
