Thanks in advance Bruno Update about my situation: I tried with this boot CD: http://blog.nawcom.com/?p=446 At least my drive was detected and I could do the installation. After the instalation ended, the system rebooted. With no CD or DVD in my drive, the system starts to read and I get the grey screen with the apple and the spinning wheel... And then I get the message from the Mac OS telling me to restart the system. At least I could install, but it seems the instalation doesn't complete successfully. If I try to start the system with -x and -v I get: ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin::start - waitforServe(resourceMatching(AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement)timed out then appears: DSMOS has arrived and there it stops The funny is I tried to install again, doing exactly the same I did when it worked, and I can't. I really need to get this working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
