Netaro Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Try looking in bios whether it has any Data Execution Prevention option. Or something like that, If yes, set to 'Enabled'. It helped in my case.

Hebb Posted June 9, 2009 Author Share Posted June 9, 2009 going into verboos mode makes it say something about mach_kernel :S and my bios doesn't have that function Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/169494-boots-at-loading-darwin/#findComment-1173476 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netaro Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Check for : 'Execute disable bit' in your bios. I did not remember that name correctly. If you don't have it, then i'm in the blank.

gazepo Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 So you have an IDE HDD. Is it on the same IDE with your CD rom drive? If yes try to reverse master and slave.
