KenFitz Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 I have tried iDeneb 10.5.6 on this, the DVD boots OK, I can set options and the DVD installs, but on reboot the computer stops responding right after it says MAC Foundation and the buffer values. Can anyone say which distro works with the this laptop or what I need to set to get a basic install of OSX. Thanks.

I get this response: You searched for: Dell Inspiron I8200 Unfortunately your search didn't return any results. Even tried Google adding OSX 10.5.6 - still nothing. Found out the iDeneb runs the DVD, iPC freezes running the DVD.. Neither installs.

Beerkex'd Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Odd, I get several pages of results. Try deleting your google cookies..?

Does this mean that no-one has done a 10.5 install from DVD or otherwise on an I8200?
