andrew89898 Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 ]Hi I am trying to install Hazard Snow Leopard 10.6.2 on my AMD Compaq 6715b I have windows 7, a disc and a NTFS partition of 30gb so I booted from disc and it says IOAPIC vectors 0x23 or something I researched it tried a lot then got told to use idle halt=0 this made me get to still waiting for root device. So I researched again. I then typed -v idlehalt=0 rd=disk0 and I got to a kernel panic. I have done some research but nothing has worked. Pic: Save then rotate in a picture viewer.. First Side of text: (Mainly all) This has the end of 2 lines which states the file and the line.. Any help? Thanks. Also if you need system specs just ask I am typing from my iPod so I cannot c+p them. And there was no option in bios to do with my hdd.

promo.sg Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Try anyone of these Bootflags, most probably it should work. http://www.smashingeeks.com/197881/how/iatkos-v7-booting-guide-blank-screen-after-booting-fix Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279349-hazard-sl-wont-boot/#findComment-1823255 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxic Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Try using: -v PCIRoot=1 idlehalt=0 or -v PCIRootUID=1 idlehalt=0 I would also advise you to try using a 10.6.3 retail disk and Nawcoms ModCD, distros spell disaster 9 out of 10 times.

Also I would rather not burn another 2 discs is there a way to get past still waiting for root device, I haven't even installed it yet so it cant be my hdd problem. my laptops cd drive is IDE. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279349-hazard-sl-wont-boot/#findComment-1823550 Share on other sites More sharing options...
