righN Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 So, hello. So I'm trying to install Mac OS X Snow Leopard on my HP Compaq 6720s for a few days now. Firstly, I tried using Bootdiskutility to create a bootable USB with Clover bootloader and I always got the same error on the gray apple screen "You need to restart your computer", Then I tried bootflag -x and that didin't help, then I tried to use a FAKECPUID (because there was a panic in verbose mode that I found which I will show later) that didin't help to, then I tried to check "kernel support CPU" in clover settings that didin't help to. Then, I tried to split my USB Flash Drive in to two partitions with Bootice and one partition for Chameleon bootloader and another for Mac OS X. To create a Chameleon bootable USB I followed this guide. And for another partition I used Bootdiskutility again to import my Mac OS X Snow Leopard. I got the same error, "You need to restart your computer". And here's mine verbose mode screen picture I tried to use bootflags like "-f -v -x GraphicsEnabler=No npci=0x2000" that didin't help to Then I tried to use VirtualBox to install Mac OS X on it and then create a bootable USB to install it on my laptop. But it shows me the error and I can't even install it on VirtualBox, here's the log.
