audit13 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I am trying to install SL from a retail 10.6 img to a Toshiba core duo laptop (950 graphics). After I select the partition with the installation, the pinwheel starts spinning and the screen turns grey and the mouse point disappears and hangs. This is the grey screen that appears just before the language selections screen. Any idea what is causing it to hang? I have used dsdtpatcher gui v1.01 to create the dsdt.aml file (0 errors, 6 warnings) and my /Extra/Extensions folder has the gma950 kext, ioatafamily kext, and fakesmc kext.

audit13 Posted January 10, 2010 Author Share Posted January 10, 2010 Hi mitch_de, thank you for the suggestion. I tried some more troubleshooting and it is an issue with the video card. I'll try some more solutions in the next few days.
