10.6.6i on Toshiba Tecra M10: "AppleAHCI@ 0 HBA trouble accessing main memory" panic during installation

[m_al_com]

Hi there,

 

I am attempting to install OSX 10.6.6i (Hazard) on a Toshiba Tecra M10 using Hazard's 10.6.6i distro.

 

I've successfully loaded the installer*, but every time I try to install, the install kernel panics with the error message:

 

AppleAHCI@ 0 HBA trouble accessing main memory 0x20000000"@/SourceCache/AppleAHCI... etc

 

I've tried a couple of other distros, (IATKOS S3 V2, Hazard's 10.6.3), and go the same error on IATKOS.

 

With IATKOS I tried the method for installing on M100 at http://osx86.transfo...llite-m100-165/ 'cos I couldn't find any better match for the M10. No joy, exactly the same error.

 

From http://www.projectos...p?showtopic=573, I gather that it IS possible to install OSX on the Tecra M10, (well, 10.5.6 anyway...).

 

Does anyone have any tips or pointers on how to get this done or even if it's possible? I'm going to try to install Leopard now, and we'll see how that goes...

 

Thanks,

m_al_com

 

 

*thanks spambotter for posting the solution to the disc load panic: in BIOS, set 'Device Configuration' to 'Set Up All Devices'. Actually, it'd be awesome to know if spambotter got this install working...

Hi and welcome,

 

Do you mind providing some information about your system? Like audio/video/chipset etc.

A laptop model, well, most people do not care to google the specifications, so please provide them.

Thank you.

 

Installing should not be impossible, although, i do not have a sollution for the problem.

EDIT: I've now installed 10.6.6i (Hazard) on this system.

If anyone else comes across this error, the secret sauce is to boot into safe mode from the Chameleon boot loader screen.

(Found it in a post in Italian. Thanks Google Translate!)

 

ie F8 at the bootloader screen, then:

 

-x

 

...as your boot flag. The installation seemed to hang at 10 minutes remaining for a very long time (~30minutes), but then just finished installing.

 

Now to work out how to stabilise OSX so I don't have to boot into safe mode EVERY time... got the circular boot error if I don't -x.
