tomkiwi Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Hey Guys, So basically i managed to get OS X to install (although i lost everything on my hd!), the problem now is that my computer loads up darwin x86 then the screen goes white with the apple symbol in the middle, and the spinning thingy that means OS X is loading - so, all is well up to this point. Then disaster strikes lol, in the centre of my apple logo (which is in the middle of the screen) a red sign which looks like a no smoking sign without the ciggarette appears and that's where the booting process ends. I left it on over night to find it exactly the same in the morning, with the little loading circle thing still spinning (note: not the colorful one but the booting process one). Just some extra info: I'm running JaS 10.4.7 AMD/INTEL ISO repack on DVD. I have re-partitioned my HD with only ONE partition of 260GB formatted in the Mac OS X Extended (Journaled). Here's another Q, have i chosen the right type of format to instal the OS onto? Sorry for all the blabbing, but i'm kinda at a loss without my emails, ebay etc.. nd my iMac G5 decided to crash 2 days ago :censored2:. Any help would be sweet, Cheers, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gee Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Did you press the 'Customise' button in the installer and install the patches? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auss Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Same story here. I tried to install 10.4.7 with patches on my ASRock ConroeXfire, no luck. Installing it using dual boot went fine the 2nd try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
