Cr0t Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I installed the JoS 10.4.7 DVD on this Dell 1.8GHz machine. It took a long time to boot from the DVD, but the install was relative quick, however my G4 at home does it quicker. The install ran through all the way and the system rebooted. Now the system tries to start up, but nothing ever happens. The last line I get is "Login Window Application Started" and that's it. I tried it with the onboard video card (intel) and an agp nvidia card. Still the same. any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammjet Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 What packages did you choose in the Customize window during installation? http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?act...ost&id=4499 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rammjet Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Well, you "sure" screwed up. Those packages are custom packages for certain configurations. If you install all of them, they will conflict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rammjet Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 is X11 is required to install too? X11 is not required nor does it do any harm, although you probably will never use it. It is a windowing environment for Unix apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
