vilpostus Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Try booting with different kernel. E.g. F8 > modbin -v or sleep -v or speedstep -v or sse3 -v Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/183672-ideneb-105-on-hp-touchsmart-iq504/#findComment-1250820 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macisgr3at Posted September 4, 2009 Author Share Posted September 4, 2009 do i check all the kernels on the iDeneb install disk? usually the only command that gets my into the install is "-v cpus=1" What would be the command id use to switch kernels?

vilpostus Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Yap, check all of them. It should install additional kernels. Then on Darwin prompt type kernel_name -v cpus=1 Where kernel_name is any of the additional kernels you have installed. Check my previous post for possible options.

Macisgr3at Posted September 4, 2009 Author Share Posted September 4, 2009 Alright, well ive gone through a few of the kernels... Now the problem is the bootup process. I get past the apple screen, hit the blue screen then it goes black a then comes back a pixelated blue screen... Im at a loss... Ive set up three computers using three different distro's and its been dandy... This one seems like its the best suited, but its a no go!

vilpostus Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Well, making some progress (no sarcasm there) Looks like you have faced wrong/no VGA driver problem. Try installing with no VGA drivers selected (if you ever selected any) or vice versa select some. I don't know which options you have selected in customize... If you have installed some VGA driver, then remove it via terminal then booted in to dvd (so you won't need to reinstall everything).
