I have an Acer aspire 1644 and 10.4.1 worked perfectly and fast.

 

I tried to install 10.4.6 HOTiSO, Jas and Myzar and all came up with the same problem.

 

Either if I startup with -v or not, all appear to work perfectly but when is going to appear the starting mac os x it freezes showing the blue background.

 

I tried to search everywhere about this problem but I didn't find anything.

 

Anybody with the same problem?

 

Thanks in advance

 

Specs for 1644

- Intel Pentium M 760

- 2,0GHz

- 533Mhz FSB

- L2 Caché 2Mb

- Chipset Intel 915GM

- Memory 1024Mb DDRII 533MHz (2x512)

- HD 100GB

- GMA900 Graphics

- 1 PcCard

- Lan 10/100

- Wifi 802.11b/g Intel

yeah... that's OSX86's version of the BSOD (blue screen of death). Nothing serious really.

 

OSX has a bug in internal lcd screen detection with GMA900 devices. The only way to solve this is to make a dummy vga adapter shorting pins 1-6 and 2-12. Or short them directly using a paper clip or staples.

 

There are a few pictures of what I mean if you search for vga dummy.

 

This essentially simulates two screens and OSX86 will happily boot after that. People are working in making a software solution for this. Don't hold your breath.
