fuzzy001 Posted March 4, 2011 Author Share Posted March 4, 2011 Guide not working for me. Load Chamelon bootloader and placed dual layer DVD with 10.6 into drive. Pressed enter to boot. Computer shows some loading texts then restarts randomly. EDIT: Managed to resolve with different BootCD.

fuzzy001 Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 New problem. When installing OS X 10.6 install randomly fails and says I must reboot. No particular error message given. Any input guys? I really want to get 10.6 working. Should I try a different BootCD or...?

fuzzy001 Posted March 7, 2011 Author Share Posted March 7, 2011 BUMP! I would really appreciate it if somebody could help me. Edit: Tried installing with Nawcom CD and retail 10.6. Installs well except leaves a bunch of error messages at the end about missing .kexts. Try to reboot into my HDD and computer reboots. Am I supposed to reboot with Nawcom CD? If I try to do that it doesn't recognize my harddisk.
