TechEnthusiast Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 HELLO, I have some problems with trying to install mac os x on my machine. i have tried both kalyway and iAtkos 5i. KALYWAY 10.5.1 im new to the os x on pc(but im no idiot with a computer). I have been having problems with Kalyway 10.5.1 distro. When i insert the dvd into the dvd drive it boots to the menu where it asks you to press enter of F8. When i just press enter, i get the "loading Darwin/x86" and below it is "/" symbol spinning clockwise. After about 1-2 minutes of that the computer restarts(so frustrating). Then when i press F8 i have used the "-v" "-x" "cpus=1", after i trype the commands and press enter i can see all this code. i see the code for about a good minute and a half but all of the sudden the computer restarts(AAAAHHHHH). I can never get to the grey apple logo. What pisses me off is that when i look at the videos(youtube) of those that can install it it takes less than 5 seconds to load the grey apple logo. iATKOS 5i This is another story. With iATKOS 5i i can load to the grey apple logo and then to the installation wizard. The problem im having with this distro is that after getting the "INSTALLATION SUCCESSFUL" i cant boot from the hard drive. MY PC SPECS(used cpu-z) Hp Pavilion a518x desktop(its about 6 years old ,could that be the problem) processor= intel celeron@2.8GHz(MMX,SSE,SSE2) Motherboard= MSI MS-6577 v4.0 GL6E, intel i845G chipset RAM=512MB ddr HDD=120GB samsung(IDE) VIDEO CARD=EVGA FX 5200(latest video drivers installed) DVD DRIVE=16x FULL SPECS FROM HP=http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&docname=c00070421# I HOPE YOU GUYS CAN HELP ME SOLVE THE PROBLEM. MY GOAL IS TO INSTALL OS X. I DONT CARE IF ITS KALYWAY OR iATKOS. FELL FREE TO ASK ME ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS I DIDNT ANSWER.
