Orutrance Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Hi, I am new to OS X installation. I have been looking throughout the forum about installation but most of it seem irrelevant with my hardware. Anyways here's what I m trying to do, downloaded grub-dfe.ISO burnt it to a CD. Successufully came up with Darwin Boot. Eject Boot disc and insert Snow Retail DVD. Default booted with DVD drive. Press F8 for advance options i-e -v or -f etc or boot it directly -> I tried both methods. And it stucks either at, Loading HFS+ file: [Mach_kernel] from 422fb00 OR Loading HFS+ file: [Mach_kernel] from 4230300 I wait for 4-5 minutes and nothing happens. Here's my Hardware configuration Current OS Windows 7 Ultimate CPU Intel C2D E6320 2 GB DDR2 Mother board Intel DQ965GF (Latest BIOS) Gfx on board HD 160 GB SATA MAXTOR (Tried both as AHCI and IDE) Optical Drives 1. Lite-ON DVDRW SHW-160p6s ATA Device 2. TSSTcorp DVD.ROM SH-D162C ATA device AUDIO = HD audio on board. Ethernet 1. Onboard Disabled 2. 3com Etherlink 10/100 PCI 3C905C-TX I wanna know if there's something I should change from the BIOS. or if I need to switch some of my hardware. Please Let me know if it is possible to install Retail OS X SL. on my current configration. please move the topics to proper section, If posted in the wrong section.
