weeneedhelp Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 This is quite odd, I've downloaded 10.4.6 under 10.4.1, and the MD5sum is correct. So i boot up my Slax Live CD to use K3b to burn the .iso onto my DVD. I've tried booting that DVD, but my bios keeps on going streight to OS X. So, i thought something happened during burning... 4 DVDs later, i finally get the idea to Mount the DVD and look at the files in that DVD. For some reason, the DVD only contains about 8 files, not a single folder, or even the kernal or the Patch:-/ The ISO had a LOT more data then the DVD did... I've even tried burning it using K3b on my Ubuntu Live CD. and still no luck :-/ currently, i only have 1 OS on my PC, which os 10.4.1, and i have two working Live CDs: Slax and Ubuntu. My PC is a Vaio with a P4 w/ HT advice would be greatly needed because i only have 1 more blank DVD left Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/16921-jas-1046-dvd-installation-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Jacholson Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Did you try to boot from the DVD nativly? Which version of 10.4.6 do you have? The JaS works natively fine with my notebook.

weeneedhelp Posted May 7, 2006 Author Share Posted May 7, 2006 I downloaded the .iso from this torrent: JaS_10.4.6_Install_dvd.3471683.TPB.torrent The problem is that the DVD doesn't boot at all, because it's missing files (such as the kernel) when i burn it. I really dont know what to do, because it's the first time i have ever seen a problem like this :?

Nick Jacholson Posted May 7, 2006 Share Posted May 7, 2006 Try to download the JaS 10.4.6 install DVD from demonoid.com worked well for me. I burned it with alcohol120%. It is not uncommon, that you just see a view files course the rest is in hfs+ format which you just can see with spezial programms for win like transmac. Are you shure that your chipset is supported? if you have an usb-dvdrom reachable, you can try to bot the dvd from this device this should work even if the chipset is not supported. Good luck, Nick Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/16921-jas-1046-dvd-installation-help/#findComment-109196 Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeneedhelp Posted May 7, 2006 Author Share Posted May 7, 2006 ^ my chipset is supported, cuz im on OS X 10.4.1 right now. LOL When i Mount the .ISO file on the mac, it shows All the needed files. also, when i mount the .iso file on Linux Live, it shows all the files too. but when i Mount the DVD iso 9660 on Linux or Mac, it shows only about... 8 files, and not even a Kernel or a patch :-/ (btw, i dont use windows, just Linux, and now a mac) well, anyways, im DL the Jas 10.4.6 file from demonoid.com now, and its gonna take a while, hopefully someone will give an explanition why my iso file wont burn right :-/. btw, i DL the file form Piracy bay.
