Rotsiser Mho Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Hi all, I feel like I'm so close to getting a 10.6.6 VM up and running. I managed to find a working 10.6.4 distro and upgraded from there. I used the 10.6.6 combo update and installed nawcom's legacy kernel before restarting (since I'm on AMD). After installing the update the OS fails to load with the screen shown below. I feel like I'm missing something obvious. Any help is appreciated. I'm using VMWare Workstation 7.1.4 on Windows XP (32-bit). I have an AMD Phenom II X2 with AMD-V enabled. As I said, 10.6.4 was working fine, though I don't know which kernel it was using.

The same driver error etc. Technics try to fix this error, but they said that is a problem with the combo update and we have to reinstall the system. I believe that this error is the same. Hope this have been helpful for you. And sorry for my poor english.

Rotsiser Mho Posted May 20, 2011 Author Share Posted May 20, 2011 Thanks for the advice Darken22 but I tried reinstalling 10.6.6 from a restored snapshot and got the same error. Looking at it again I wonder if the problem is that the legacy kernel didn't install correctly. The output mentions Darwin Kernel Version 10.4.0 but a 10.6.0 legacy kernel should have been installed. Can anyone shed any light on this? Thanks!
