Hello!

I'm tried to install both new DVDs from Tubgirl and from JaS. And all of them hang at boot after message "BSD root: disk2s3 major 14, minor 8".

A saw some similar messages on this forum but nobody got the solution. Any ideas? ;)

 

My configuration: AMD Athlon64 3000+, ASUS A8N-E, 1 SATA & 1 PATA HDD.

USB Legacy Support has to be disabled on nForce4 AMD boards prior installing Mac OS X. This solved my problem.

 

Thanks a lot! :)

I had to try it. And i'm sure it will be ok because my configuration is the same as yours :hysterical:

I installed from the JaS 10.4.8 dvd onto a ide hard drive that I had. I used my spare dell with a celeron d 2.53Ghz processor and selected for it to install the needed amd patches for the system I would be using it on (athlon 64 3200+, Asus a8n5x). I plugged the hard drive into the amd system, selected to boot off of it, and attempted to start osx. It hung at bsd root: rdisk0s1, blah, blah, so I disabled the usb legacy support like you guys suggested, but all that did was make it go past that point, then the screen instantly fills with a bunch of lines that all say something like "I/O Read Error." If I reenable usb legacy support, it just hangs again on BSD Root: rdisk0s1, blah, blah. Any suggestions?

 

 

Edit: Just to let you know, even with usb legacy support disabled on my amd mobo (asus a8n5x), I still get a bunch of "SAM Multimedia: Read/Write Failed" errors.
