my 50's time trying to get this to work i had the working 10.4.6 and i want to a new clean install 10.4.8 cauz i heard it was better with the new kernel so i tried.. installing kept on failing at the last part where it was installing Jas Packages... even tho i could boot i get 2 out of 50 good install but end up hanging at the blue screen no mouse no noting just plain blue screen...

 

My setup:

Intel pentinum d 930 3ghz

intel d945gnt motherboard

2gb ddr2 667

250gb sata hd

asus ati x1300pro 256mb pci-e

note: ati x1300pro was working perfectly with both ports both dvi and vga but no qe/ci with resolution fix.. atiinject after the 3.6 installer...

 

 

any help to let me get back to the mac side of my machine would be greatly appreciated.. thnx.

Thanks a lot. For the 10.4.8 DVD, this goes for JaS and everybody who helped on preparing this and finally to all of you. With the help of your comments I finally got my system working.

 

I'm running 10.4.8 on a ASROCK 915GL with P4 3Mhz and Hyperthreading. I had to read through this thread to get graphics and network working properly. The network issue I solved copying the IONetworkingFamily.kext from my former installation, everything else didn't work out. For the graphics problems I had to delete the GMA950 related kexts. Afterwards I installed the GMA900 package, deleted the Extensions cache and repaired permissions.

I now still have an issue with About this mac. It works but doesn't display a lot of information it formerly showed. As I read it wasn't necessary for me to install the JaS fix as I'm using an Intel based machine. Well, I will try to fix this and will keep you informed.

 

Bye and thanks again

Installed fine after creating the partions and formating with 10.4.7 then loaded with 10.4.8 for the first time on a dell optiplex gx280 with sse3 enabled!!! Had to use sse2 patch b4...

 

Only thing not working is ical and my realtek 8139 card. I also do not have a functioning kext for my x1600.

 

my "about this mac" does not crash.

 

Any ideas on the realtek problems? Would like to get back online......

 

I've got it working, I copied the IONetworkingfamily.kext from the 10.4.7, remove the installed one and copy to the 10.4.8, did chown -R root:wheel and chmod -R 755 on the file, reboot, now its working!

 

Hope that helps :)

thanks @ ual808

 

and as for you people who get that no smoking looking sign, i got the same thing

 

for me, the issue was that my DVD drive was not master, it was slave, my cd drive was master

 

to solve this, i opened up my cpu, unplugged my cd drive (power and serial) then plugged that plug into my DVD drive, power and serial, then it came up as master and install went

 

Well after reading the 'fix' for the umpteenth time no I decided to try it with my DVD. Only catch was I must have turfed the original Jas 10.4.8 and had to download the fixed version. So I burnt it this morning and after setting my DVD to master (secondary IDE that is- now tell me using secondary IDE is an issue now!) I went for the DVD boot. Guess what same old no smoking sign 40 secs into the boot...

 

So much for DVD master setting being the remedy for this issue.....next.

I am able to boot Jas 10.4.6 and Jas 10.4.7 but not 10.4.8.

 

First image is 10.4.8, then 10.4.7, then 10.4.6

 

Setup is same for all three boots.

 

 

Key differences concerning 10.4.8 from 10.4.6:

 

 

64 Bit mode enabled

 

Does not recognize the CPU as Pentium D

XML Parse error: OS UnserializeXML: syntax error near line 1

 

skipping duplicate extension "com.apple.iokit.IOATABlockStorage

skipping duplicate extension "com.apple.iokit.IOATAPIProtocol Transport"

skipping duplicate extension "com.apple.iokit.AppleYukon"

skipping duplicate extension "com.apple.driver.AppleInter...."

 

ACPI CA 200060421 (10.4.6 is 20051117 [debuge level=0 layer=0]

Good to go - DELL Dimension 3100C (i915) Cel-D 2.53G/1024MB/160GB-SATA

 

Here is what I did. I left the following step for those who own 3100C and/or i915 users stuck somewhere.

 

DVD+-RW drive is connected IDE (PATA) but I used USB2 external DVD drive.

The result is the same (successful), so either one is ok.

 

1) Boot from DVD (Jas 10.4.8 Nov-3rd).

2) at Customize, check 10.4.8 Combo and GMA900 and mifki kernel if no check on mifki (semthex default) you may encounter 'kernel panic'.

3) When finished then boot from HD. Should be ok.

4) create account and choose time zone, etc.

5) edit /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist

add 'fsb=133' after Kernel Flags (this is only for Cel-D)(P4/PenD users skip this)

<key>Kernel Flags</key>

<string>fsb=133</string>

6) double click to run /System/Installer/Packages/Jas10.4.8GMA900....pkg

This enable surely QE/CI.

7) reboot.

8) You should check QE/CI enabled and LAN works.

9) Still Hardware profile are error. but this is minor problem.

copy /System/Library/SystemProfiler/SPPlatformReporter.spreporter from other working confirmed DVD or from working system into the HD (same location).

10) repair permissions on HD.

11) You can do softwareupdate.

 

That's it.

Still no sound? I know. I don't use onboard sound (Sigmatel9220 what a headache for me a long time).

You can now install by yourseld from DVD.

Just USB sound is fine for me.

 

Good luck! ;)

I have the same problem with my 10.4.8 JAS SSE3, using a Thinkpad T41 2373-1FA (w/ 1GB Ram)

 

Didn't have this issue with 10.4.5, .6, or .7. Seeking help~!

Try booting up, F8, -v and post/link the error message. Sounds like Kernel panic to me.

Anyyone else that gets a blackscreen during the end of installation process?

It comes in the final moment in the installation process after the first reboot.

 

Intel E6300

Gigabyte DS3

Geforce 7900GTO

 

i think you should just install this 3 things combo, ich8 and semthex ..

Hi all I am trying to boot from 10.4.8 SSE3 Patched DVD.

It's not booting from mach_kernel (each time I do so it restarts the system).

Then I tried booting from mach_kernel.mifki it gave some kernel panic.

I have a Intel Centrino Duo laptop.

I tried with this option too.

mach_kernel.mifki -v cpus=1

But kernel panics at 3 kexts. I remember one of them named IOPCCARD something like that. Is there any fix for this thing.

Can I install 10.4.8 on intel centrino duo laptop ? I have 10.4.7 working just fine (without sound).

 

 

Please help.

Regards

Ok finaly got my new computer built (mm, 2 gigs of DDR2 and a Core2Duo) and am now trying to use this install DVD to get OS X on it like my old D865Pearl mobo.

I now have a Intel D965WH with the GMA X3000 Integrated graphics on it.

I encounter two problems with it whenever I try to boot the install DVD. It either hangs up right after

ACPI: System State [s0 S3 S4 S5] (S3)

or it hangs up at

Waiting for boot volume with UUID ........

Waiting on <dict ID="0"><key>IOProviderClass</key><String ID="1">IOResources</String><Key>IOResourceMatch</Key><String ID="2">boot-uuid-media</string></dict>

 

This is pretty much true of either the Mifki or the defult modified kernel. Any ideas?

Be sure you are using the JaS 10.4.8 Intel SSE3 Only Reseed iso posted on Nov 3, 2006.

 

Try booting with -v cpus=1 only (let it use the default Semthex kernel).

 

Otherwise, use VMWare in Windows to install OSX. You don't need to use VMWare to run OSX after installing it. http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=11314

 

 

Excuse me Ram,

I didn't understand witch is the correct 10.4.8 reseed.

I found only 10.4.8.Jas.Intel.only.SS3 on the net.

Could you post the exact name for the 10.4.8 reseed?

Thanks.

Initially I used the Myz DVD, however I checked and it's not on that. I then did subsequent updates to 10.4.6 & 7 with the Jas's updates. Which worked, I've since done the 10.4.8 with Jas's Intel SSE3 update and fixed it via:

 

mount -uw /

 

mv /system/library/exrensions/r2d2.kext /system/library/extensions/

 

The only issue I have is the blue and black blocks due to the GMA....... I can boot in via safe mode..
