Rootus Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 System: Asus P5K-VM, Intel Q6600, 8GB RAM, Evga 9600 GT 512MB 250 GB WD SATA - Leopard 10.5.6 vanilla installed, Chameleon 2.0 RC1 1500 GB Seagate SATA - Target for Snow Leopard, partitioned into 500 GB / 897 GB, Chameleon 2.0 RC2 - Got SL installed via Leopard (OSInstall.mpkg method) - Got Chameleon 2.0RC2 installed along with modded SL boot - Four kexts installed: * dsmos.kext, NullCPUPowerManagement.kext, OpenHaltRestart.kext, PlatformUUID.kext (all allegedly 64-bit SL versions) - Patched DSDT with GUI patcher, no further customization It gets a ways through the boot process, then stops altogether here: The last thing it barks about is power management, but I see that same error on Leopard and it doesn't hang up there; I'm guessing the problem is occurring before related screen output. Anybody have any ideas or helpful tips on how I can figure out what's borked?

Anybody have any ideas or helpful tips on how I can figure out what's borked? there is already a thread about this. Your graphics card isn't supported. I'm too lazy to repost so look at this guide http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=182227 and in the needed files it has links to graphics fixes Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/183753-got-sl-installed-almost-booting-getting-stuck/#findComment-1249025 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDrumm Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 I have almost the same problem, but I get past that ACPI warning and actually see the blue login screen for a sec and then it turns to grey and I see the color beach ball....and that's it.

Rootus Posted September 3, 2009 Author Share Posted September 3, 2009 there is already a thread about this. Your graphics card isn't supported. I do wish it were that easy . Logs show that it's something to do with Spotlight crashing & burning, oddly enough. But googling the error gets me only one result, and it is in a different language. So I guess I'll have to figure this one out on my own. I hoped the forums would be helpful, but as per usual that's only true for the common problems.

DrDrumm Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 How do you view the logs of a system you're not currently booting from ?
