Hello!

 

After some failed attempts - hadn't set the type to 0xaf so the partition was not recognized - the Mac OS X86 installed without problems in my HP Pavilion dv5178us. This laptop is a:

 

- Centrino Core Duo (Yonah);

- 1GB RAM

- 100 GB HD

- nVidia Go 7400

- 1280 x 800 15.4" LCD;

- wireless, network, bluetooh, etc.

 

But... it freezes during startup. It passes the white screen with Apple logo but freezes in the next screen, the blue one, with a progress bar. The mouse don't freeze, I can move the pointer but the progress bar stops forever in the very beginning. And there is no disk activity. I used the Myzar 10.4.5 Universal DVD to install.

 

Any clues?

 

Thanks in advance!

Arnaldo

Every boot, I could not get the system working so far. I'm using Acronis Boot Manager to handle boot, will try Windows XP tonight and also try to boot with -v to check for error messages. But I'm not sure -v will help since it can pass the white screen, the freezing is after that, in the screen that preceeds the logon.
