EnduringInsanity Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Hello everyone, I am trying to install iAtkos L2 but I am having some problems doing so. In my BIOS I set the boot priority to DvD Drive, Hard Drive, USB. When I put the DvD in it just skipped over it and booted from the Hard Drive. So I thought I did something wrong in the BIOS. I went back into the BIOS and everything looked fine. Then I set it so it only has the option to boot from the DvD Drive. At this point I got an error message saying there was no bootable media. Then I booted back into windows 7 after changing back the boot priority and open the DvD to look at the files inside. I only saw one file which was normal. I had seen the same thing with my Snow Leopard DvD that is now broken and that booted fine and I tried to install Snow Leopard. That was some time ago so I thought maybe the DvD Drive is broken. I then tried to boot with Ubuntu Live DvD and that worked fine. I don't know what is wrong. I burned the the iAtkos DvD using TransMac and a blank 4.7 DvD I read online that is how you should do it. I do not have any DvD left to try burning it again and my other hackintosh partition I reformatted to put Lion on. So I do not have access to another Mac OSX machine. I really don't know what is wrong, has anyone else had this problem. Is there a way to use my 16GB flash Drive to put iAtkos on there without a mac os? Could I use a virtual machine and put iAtkos on there and use that to put iAtkos on my USB? Could I even use linux to put iAtkos on a USB? If so can anyone give me a tutorial on how to do this? What would be easier to put iAtkos on a Virtual Machine and then put iAtkos on my USB( if possible) Or install Linux and out iAtkos on a USB that way?( If possible) If I can do any of those I really need a tutorial for the easier one. And Do I have any other options? My System Specs are: Intel Core i3 2120 2nd Generation. MSI H61M-P20 (G3) Motherboard Nvidia Geforce GTX 550Ti. 320 GB SATA HDD @ 7200 RPM.

iRanbirHD Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 I tried to use DVD. It won't work, it always freezes. Yes you can do the Virtual Machine. That's what I did when installing iAtkos L2 on USB.
