gwprod12 Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 first things first. Sounds like the DVD you burned was burned bad. Try reburning. Second things... well... second, I guess. Your DVD drive should probably be primary slave (I think it's primary slave, dont quote me. And check around). Otherwise, you may get "Waiting for Root Device" errors.

lordimac Posted July 20, 2006 Author Share Posted July 20, 2006 Hmm ok, thx for your Answere. I've tryed the Boot parameter rd=disk0s1 and with this Parameter i dont get these Errors, but theres a new Problem. After booting with the Parameter rd=disk0s1 and -v i see only an Blue Screen with my Mouse and this for over 10 Minutes (i was under the Shower at this Time, its so hot ) but nothing happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
