kopoko Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Hello, AMD 3700+ Nforce4 A8N-E 7800GTX Using the Jas 10.4.7 AMD iso I can get all the way to writing files part of the installer. As soon as it hits 1% it hangs, no dvd activity. Just wondering if it's because I'm trying to install it on SATA, whilst my dvd drive is on the PATA bus? In the custom install section: I selected the Jas custom install bits aswell, but I only chose both SSE2, and SSE3. AMD kernel, and AMD update 10.4.7, patched wireless, VIA.SATA. Also i deselected all the print drivers, as well as the language translations for less bloat. I did the disk util bit successfully, and the terminal fdisk part as well, so I thought it would be plain sailing from there I did do a search on the net before posting this aswell. Any help or insight is greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kopoko Posted October 17, 2006 Author Share Posted October 17, 2006 just an update. I got it working by installing onto an ATA hd. new problem: gets into osx fine after install. but for subsequent reboots it hangs trying to load the nforce driver/kext? I just get a repeating message of: waiting for root device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
