installation on a Asus W3N laptop, freezes during install

[Sanjiyan]

Hiya trying to install OSX 10.6.4 its the JaS 10.4.6.install.dvd.iso I got from PB the file is called '10.4.6.install.dvd.iso'

 

I burned it to DVD and it works ok, it goes to setup screen, and I press F8 and the -v to get the verbose output...

 

It then freezes and says this:

 

Jul 22 13:06:11 localhost lookupd(50): NetInfo connection dailed for server 127.0.0.1/local

/private/var/tmp: optimization changed from TIME to SPACE

Jul 22 13:06:57 localhost configd[31]: Error: copyAirPortSCPrefsRef can't commit preferences: No such key

 

Now I would love to try this OSX, always wanted to use it etc... any ideas what the problem is? the caps lock light stos working also, the dvd wont eject or nothing... Only thing I can do is remove the power cord and battery to power it down.

 

Laptop Specs:

 

ASUS W3N

512 MB RAM

Centrino 1.7Ghz Chip

ATi 9700 Mobility Graphics

80GB PATA drive

DVD +/- R/RW DVD drive.

 

Anyone have any ideas please?

Hi,

 

I have the same laptop and I've run into exactly the same problem.

Am at a bit of a loss on how to proceed.

Should I try an earlier or different release?

 

Thanks,

 

Olly.
