Successful install, Kernel panic on first reboot.

[bindubai]

Hello,

 

First I would like to thank that community for the effort given to the users.

 

I will start my topic with a summry and the issue, followed by my system specification and details.

 

I made up a custom pc and started Mac OS X installation OOTB, the installation went all fine, no issues following the guides.

First thing I did after the installation and a successful boot-up was installing "bootloader" from my desktop using a prepaired installation from a usb flash, and it requested to restart the system after the installation.

 

When the system restarted I recieved a Kernel panic on the apple logo screen.

 

My system specifications:

- Proccessor Intel i5 - 2500k

- MB ASUS P8z68-v

- Graphic Card Nvidia GTX 550 Ti 1GB

- RAM Patriot 4GB DDR3 x2 ( Used 4gb x 1 for installation )

- HD 500GB Sata x 2

 

Details of installation:

- Mac os x version: 10.6 Snow leopard RETAIL.

- [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] legacy for booting purpose.

- SATA set to AHCI.

- I used DU for formating the disk, no other operating systems installed.

- HDMI connection between PC to screen, smooth installation + first boot.

- Speedstep turbo in the BIOS is Disabled. [ according to the guide I followed ]

- GraphicsEnabler=No for no issues on booting.

I will mention more details if required, as I'm not having an issue with installation here.

 

 

Questions?

The type of kernel panics I recieved differes from the command I use to boot, since I only had "one" successfull boot which was the one after the installation, I tried almost everything that came to my mind and I still get KPs,-x/ -v / GraphicsEnabler=No / PCIrootUID=1 / busratio=30 ( since I have i5 2500k ), etc, I can't remember what else I used.

Any ideas are welcome.

 

Thanks in advanced!

Solved.

 

 

I will write the steps I taken to solve this issue, so you might get a hint if you have the same issue.

 

Steps I've done:

- deleted my old copy 10.6 [ Format using Disk Utility ]

- Installed 10.6.3 RETAIL.

- Installed [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] -> [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]

- Installed update helper

- reboot working fine -> Boot with Maxmem=4096 GraphicsEnabler=No npci=0x2000

- Currently downloading combo updates 10.6.8 from my SL

 

I will keep this post updated if there's something helpfull to the others who might have the same issue and never solved it as I couldn't find success installations with this build

 

Cheers. ^^

Update to 10.6.8 was completed, after restarting, the hackintosh decided to stick to the apple logo screen and freeze there for ever. No panics, nothing!

 

Installing 10.6.3 again all over!
