gogisha g Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 Hi guys! I am having an issue booting just installed Snow leopard 10.6.2 on my Hackintosh. Here is my configuration Gigabyte P35 DS3L Q6000 nVidia 9800 GT 4 GB ram Here is my installation process 1. I downloaded and burned [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] (nVidia) iso 2. I set my Bios (F7) settings (AHCI mode enabled) 3. Tried to boot [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] from the DVD drive - no success 4. I DISABLED AHCI and than I was able to boot [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] from the DVD 5. I installed than SnowLeopard 10.6.2 retail 6. Installation finished successfully with the error that the system cannot be restarted since there is not boot room installed (which is okay) 7. I switched DVDs - put back [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] in the drive - couldn't load DVD anymore (whether AHCI was enabled/disabled) 8.
