sweetasabadger Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Hello all, I have just installed the Jas 10.4.6, got over the b0 error (thatnks to the forum), but now once i go to load up, the grey apple screen loads and the loading circle spins but nothing happens. I have left it on for hours so it's not just me being impacient. I have a compatible sse3 cpu etc, and its also been installed on a new hard drive. Any help would be much appreciated Thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41550-jas-1046-freezes-on-boot/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
macphreak4evr Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 you did do a custom install correct? make sure you choose the Intel, or AMD options, not both or it wont work. I had same problem on HP DC7100 SFF desktop untill I did custom. now it rocks I am going to try more workstatons too Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41550-jas-1046-freezes-on-boot/#findComment-297285 Share on other sites More sharing options...

rational Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 @sweetasabadger How did you work it out? I am now also having this problem of the grey apple logo screen being frozen on bootup. I did not choose the AMD kernel in addition to the Intel. Only the Intel as I'm running on a Celeron 2.8 on an 865 chipset. Still looking hard for next steps to this.

sweetasabadger Posted February 9, 2007 Author Share Posted February 9, 2007 Hello, i went back to reinstall and selected customise in the option for install type. There i selected the most relevant settings i.e. Intel as i hadn't done so before. The system then started without any problems. I am running an Intel p4. Hope this helps. (When reisntalling all the options i.e. Intel etc have explanations making it simple enough to decide what should be installed or not) Enjoy @sweetasabadgerHow did you work it out?

frenchie Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 You know that little "Do Not Enter sign" means there was an error loading some required software. You can find out this error in verbose mode by booting up with the -v flag. If you read the forum you may have found out that that is what you need to do. You could've saved yourself a lot of time and given the people who may have been able to help you a chance to figure out what was wrong. @Faluk, before you install there is a little tab that will say "Advanced Options" in the installation wizard. Click that and it will bring up the needed information Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41550-jas-1046-freezes-on-boot/#findComment-334485 Share on other sites More sharing options...

eXcalibUr88 Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 i was able to get past that screen. i customized the installation and made sure that the things that i only need will be installed. however, i get to the starting OS X page and get stalled after. looking for a solution for that now.
