HElp on installation OSx86 10.5.2 kalyway

[rao_mac]

i am using kalyway on amd athlon processor. When i put the disk in my drive and restart my laptop the installation starts. it asks to press F8. after pressing f8 i had entered many commands like

1. -v -x cpus=1

2. cpus=1 -v -x platform=x86pc

3. -x

and many other commands

 

but after loading few files the laptop suddenly turns off and restarts. What should i do.

 

Plzzz Help

 

When i downloaded the iso file Kalyway_10.5.2_DVD_Intel_Amd there was one folder add kext to dvd and in which there was one file named add kext to dvd.rtf which said to do something which i don't understood. it said

 

 

Kalyway 10.5.2 DVD Intel_Amd (sse2/sse3) EFI V8

 

if you want adding drivers support to dvd boot then put kexts you want add to dvd extensions in this folder (you can find natit for at hd in this folder) and run Add_kext_to_dvd_boot.command !!!

 

 

i also did not do this.

I got Kalyway 10.5.2 to install and run on my laptop (a Toshiba L100) eventually. It does take some perseverance though. Also, I found that the installs worked better if you just let OSX get on with it.

 

Playing about with -V -x etc etc just caused me grief. I just let it install the way it wanted to, though it sometimes takes several boots of Kalyway before it eventually decides that it can see ' the root device'.

 

Also, I found Kalyway very slow in installing (took nearly 5 hours for me). Now I have a working OSX on my laptop and it runs quite happily. Only thing I have missing at the moment is Wireless Networking and Sound - mainly because I cannot find out what Sound Card or in-built wireless network card I have in my laptop.

 

But I'll get those working eventually.

 

Perseverance is the key unfortunately.
