Hiro_ Posted November 10, 2006 Author Share Posted November 10, 2006 Yes, to the 10.4.7 install normally at my machine, alone 10.4.8 than not. Before try install using Jas DVD i tried update the kernel using that tutorial, but i hadn't success with him too, after reboot the system always reboot instantaneously, time for time infinitely.
