Kernel issue with IDeneb 10.5.7

[alexistkd]

Hi everyone im trying running iDeneb_v1.5_1057.iso with Vmware 6.5.2 on Core 2 Quad Q6600. I already do all steps like mount .iso with virtual clone drive but nothing i get this error:

 

*** Virtual machine kernel stack fault (hardware reset) ***

The virtual machine just suffered a stack fault in kernel mode. On a real computer, this would amount to a reset of the processor. It can be caused by an incorrect configuration of the virtual machine, a bug in the operating system, or a problem in the VMware Workstation software. Press OK to reboot virtual machine or Cancel to shut it down.

 

Here is my vmx file:

Are you getting this when trying to boot the iDeneb installation DVD?? That's strange because it works fine for me. It sounds like you're trying to boot vanilla kernel. When using freebsd-64 guestOS, you can't boot vanilla under VMware because the tsc_init() function uses an unemulated MSR which causes the stack fault you mention. If you're booting Voodoo, Qoopz or AnV kernels, you should be able to boot, but you need to enter a boot option. Stop it during the boot stage and enter the boot options "busratiopath=7 -timetsc". If the bootloader is Chameleon, you can also use busratiopath=2.

What u mean im trying to load vanilla kernel im quite new on this i only open vmware in my windows xp sp3 then mounted .iso with clonedrive and set in vmware and then started what Guest-Os should i config in vmware ?

[Zenith432]

Your config is ok. When you boot the ISO image, it will give you a few seconds with a countdown before booting darwin kernel. Press a key during this stage to stop the boot. You can then type a command line with boot options for the kernel. Type "busratiopath=7 -timetsc" and enter. The boot will continue and it should work after this.

Ok bro i do it, works but when i click continue it says Select where to install Mac osx and it appears in blank no partitions its strange.

 

Thanks

You have to run Disk Utility from the Tools menu and manually partition an empty disk before you can install. It's in the Readme file.
