sinnLoser Posted May 26, 2010 Share Posted May 26, 2010 Hello, i am new here and i tried to install iAtkos v7 on a Acer Aspire 7740G. First i tried the normal way: Inserting DVD booted up and just hit Enter. After this i could see the Gray Windows with the Apple Symbol for about 2 Seconds and then it instantly rebooted. then i tried with "-v and cpus=1" both had the same effect. Then i tried with "busratio=17" and the Mac OS X Setup started without problems. i formatted the Partition with "Journaled", activated and installed Mac OS X on it without any Problems. After reboot i just getting always this message: "boot0: done". nothing more. Anyone could help me how i can start Mac OS X now? and maybe a Solution to make it Possible to Choose between my Windows 7 and Mac OS X? Thanks in advance. PS. Here are my Specs: Intel Core i5 M430 4 GB DDR3 RAM ATI Radeon HD5470 with 512 MB DDR3 500 GB HDD Crystal Eye Webcam Cardreader Blueray Disc + Multi DVD Burner 17,3" LED LCD Windows 7 Home Premium MfG, sinnLoser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sinnLoser Posted June 5, 2010 Author Share Posted June 5, 2010 Hello, i can't use this [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] cause the "Needed" list contains a Retail Copy of the Leopard DVD but i don't have it. so, there is no way atm to install Mac OS X on my Machine and without the Retail DVD? Thanks in advance. MfG, sinnLoser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaLd0n Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 fdisk with these parameters boot0 writes the file to the MBR of the selected disk dd writes the file boot1h at the beginning of the selected partition cp copies the file to the root of the boot partition selected --------------- Snow has several technologies that the leopard has not OpenCL, GCD, 64 bit ... find out more about these new technologies leopard --------------- Use this installer for Chameleon already has the files inside and fdisk it installs and activates the partition http://www.mediafire.com/?jtjndzmyzwo sorry for my english Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucidmyth Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Hi sinnLoser, Did you manage to install Snow Leopard on your Acer 7740g ? I have one too and would love to give it a spin. Been away from the scene for a long time, so I have to do some research as how things works these days. Will report back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been away from the scene for a long time, so I have to do some research as how things works these days. Will report back Hi lucidmyth, all you need is the latest Empire EFI bootloader cd and your retail Snow Leopard DVD. I'm currently booting snow from an USB HD.
