ghw9132 Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 I have the vmware image, running in windows xp. I have been unable to get it to boot. I found with usb support in vmware it would cause a kernel panic. After removing usb, it continues to boot but then at configuring kernel extensions it begins to report illegal instructions as listed below, then stalls. /etc/rc: line 232: 26 Illegal instruction kextd /etc/rc: line 233: 27 Illegal instruction kextload /System/Library/Extensions/AppleTPMACPI.kext/ /etc/rc: line 253: 29 Illegal instruction /usr/libexec/FirewallTool /etc/rc: line 256: 30 Illegal instruction /usr/libexec/register_mach_bootstrap_servers /etc/mach_init.d /etc/rc: line 262: 31 Illegal instruction /Launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons /System/Library/LaunchDaemons /etc/rc: line 262: 32 Illegal instruction SystemStarter ${VerboseFlag} /etc/rc: line 264: 33 Illegal instruction /usr/sbin/update Any help would be appreciated, Thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/211-unable-to-boot-vmware-image/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamsims Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 think i just realised why it didn't work. My abit NF7 mobo only has SSE not SSE2 or 3. i guess my machine is a bit outdated and this is why it won't run Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/211-unable-to-boot-vmware-image/#findComment-11327 Share on other sites More sharing options...
