Hello! I am trying to install OSX on my "kind of old" acer aspire 5920g. I've seen some tutorials, but the only distribution that I can Start the intallation is iatkos 3v2. Setup works only if I start it with flags -v GraphicsEnabler=0 , but system start with any combination of this flags, nor -x 

The problem is a  have tried lots of combinations of kernel and hardare configs and none of the work.

I'll post a picture of the last try and my computer specs.

 

I have two questions, please:

¿What would be the best version for this laptop?

¿What am I doing wrong with this one? It does install great. Bootloader works fine, but I cant get it to start! im going desperate here. Please help me if you can.

Thanks in advance!

Hey! Thanks Artur-pt! The guide would be great if the links worked :( but unfortunately they are out of date. The link to the guide for replacing files is down, so thats a dead end road.

I updated the Bios and, you know what, now I cant get itakos 3 v2 even to the setup screen :( 

I'm "down-hearted" on building my hackintosh...

Well, the first problem you have is not knowing if the problem is compatibility between OS X and your laptop, or if there's something wrong with the distribution you're trying. A first good step would be trying a Vanilla OS X install not only in order to rule out a distribution problem, but also because most people around here will probably not be able to help you with distros.

Hi! Thanks for repying! I have a snow leopard golden master .dmg. Is this what you mean by vanilla? Sorry if it sounds silly. Should I Just burn it on a dvd and start it by itself or with #####? If so... What version?

Thanks!!!
