fredill Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I bought this new Satellite and the first thing I did was to try installing osx 10.6.3 (iAtkos) Unfortunately it didn't work so I tried with another copy, iDeneb osx 10.5.0 and it didn't work either. I tried it with a Tiger too, no luck. On both cases I had a cpu-panic of some kind or some other panic. (!?!?) So later I tried installing the first one on a virtual machine and still nothing. This is my hardware configuration: CPU: i3 2310M 2.10GHz (Virtualization enabled) RAM: 4GB - 2x2GB Samsung, DDR3-1333 667 MHz HDD: 500GB Hitachi GPU: nVidia GeForce 315M - 1GB DDR3 WIFI: Atheros AR9002WB-1NG LAN: Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller RTL8139/810x AUDIO: Realtek ALC269 MB: Toshiba Satellite C660 Chipset: Intel Sandy Bridge-MB IMC BIOS: AMI EFI I checked the hardware database available on this website but I think it's a little outdated. I need to know if it is a hardware problem and which one. Can anyone help me? Has anyone installed OSX successfully on a similar notebook? I will upload a picture of the issue as soon as possible. EDIT: This happens on VM: Trying out Tiger: This is with Leopard (10.5): And finally Snow Leopard (it should be 10.6.3): I don't care if the previous versions don't work, I need 10.6 or even 10.7 but not having a mac makes it difficult for me to prepare 10.7 THANKS!

fredill Posted October 1, 2011 Author Share Posted October 1, 2011 I was searching the wiki earlier and I found out that the Intel i3 processor, (the one I have in particular) has been used for an installation of a prerelease of a 10.7 Lion. Since to install Lion you need to at least get to the installer, I'm guessing that it is not the problem. Link to where I found it: http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/HCL_10.7_Seeds Thanks.
