Hazard OS X 10.6.2 Only Boots in Safe Mode

[Mattharrison92]

Hey,

 

So I downloaded Hazard OS X 10.6.1-10.6.2, the installation part goes fine, it boots up, I select some options, then it installs and restarts. When I go to boot it after installation it starts up, the apple logo with the white screen comes up, then it says "You must restart your computer" or something along those lines. If I start it up in safe mode, it loads up fine. So I'm wondering how I can fix it so that it will start normally, any ideas?

 

My laptop is a Gateway MD7811u

 

 

Here's some specs on it:

 

Graphics: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650

Audio: High Definition Audio (that's all it says)

Wireless: Broadcom BCM94312HMG (taken out of HP Mini laptop)(used it so internet would work in OS X 10.5.6)

IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers: Intel ICH9M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller

Computer: ACPIx64- based PC

Processor: Inter Core 2 Duo CPU T6600

Ram: 4GB

Hard Drive: 500GB

 

I already had it set up on iPC OS X 10.5.6 with audio, internet, and everything working. Reason I need it updated it because I want to run Logic Pro 9, and the 10.5.6 OS X is too old to support it.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Start it in verbose mode (-v) and find out where it is hanging. You will see a spot that says "panic" followed by a block of numbers. Right below that will be the name(s) of the kext(s) that are causing the problem. That is what you must work on either by adding/changing some kexts or by selecting the appropriate options during installation.

yeah, you need to find where it's hangin on.

do -v (verbose) in the boot screen. You'll see after input that code, lines of OS X booting. when it was says kernel panic, look into the related kext that make panic.

i have one problem once like this in Hazard 10.6.6i, after i update to 10.6.7.

my problem was there is a panic caused by sleepenabler.kext on 10.6.6 and some unsupported kext for my machine.

now, it's runnin smooth and roaring.

 

Mattharrison92, maybe You should check what kext needed for your rig. take a close look on the motherboard specs and cpu instruction, also the HD 3650 kext.
