Beerkex'd Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 Try a more AMD friendly distro such as Leo4All. You didn't mention what motherboard you have but if it has an nForce chipset, this is the place to go for information: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=184224 Here's an older guide but maybe there's something you can use: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=87901 And a guide for a HP laptop with nForce chipset: http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=126095 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/220254-kalyway-1025-installtion-keeps-failing-any-idea-why/#findComment-1482851 Share on other sites More sharing options...
