Can't boot from iAtkos S3 DVD

Hi there,

I can't boot with iAtkos S3 DVD on my Dell Studio 1749. Chameleon loads fine, but when I choose Mac OS Installation in it, my system reboots without any error message. If I don't put "-v" for verbose mode in Chameleon, I can see Apple logo a half second, and then the system reboots.

 

Any suggestion ? If you need more details, do not hesitate to ask me.

 

Thanks,

Okay, it seems to be some iAtkos S3 kexts that are killing the boot. Am I right ?

 

How do I do if I want to install Snow Leopard with my Retail version ? Where to find the right kexts for my configuration ? Which one to choose for my Dell 1749 ?

 

Wifi, Ethnernet Bluetooth, Sound, Ati graphic card, touchpad, keyboard, TrialBoot (Windows 7, Ubuntu 10.04, Snow Leopard) and eventually the webcam must work at the end. Do you think that it's possible ?

Hi,

 

i have same problem with very similar notebook

Monitor: 17,3po HD+ (1600X900)

Memory : 4096MB (2x2048) 1067MHz DDR3 Dual Channel

Did you manage to work everything on your Dell? I wanted to make same thing as you, trialboot and when i started installation of iatkos s3 v2 same thing happens as in your case.

 

Does anybody have any suggestions?

I had the same problem too ~

But now , the problem has gone with the wind ~

I'm using [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] to boot the iAtkos 10.6.3, it works well ~

you need none of options but a click of ENTER ~

that's my feeling ~and very good ~

Is it patched with VIAATA patch?

 

I had to patch mine before it worked (or you can run the install from OS X by showing hidden files, then going to /System/Install/Packages and running OSInstall.mpkg)

 

Another thing you can try is -f flag, this is how I got my install to boot, I was getting a reset screen that instructed me to press and hold power button... Booted with -f and it went away, all drivers loaded.. No clue.
