shonofear Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 i also had the same problems but solved it by setting my onboard SATA Ctrl mode from AHCI to IDE. My plan was to install Win XP, MAC, and Linux on the same HD. I also wanted to utilize the AHCI mode so could get the most out of HD in Linux and MAC. So i installed XP with the SATA drivers via floppy so now it works in AHCI mode. But now when i went to install MAC i got the error.... so i figured i would change back to IDE for the MAC install and then revert back to AHCI for LINUX install. Is this a BIG no no...? im tryin it anyhow cheers UPDATE um.. thats weird, now when it go to the Disk Utility part there was NO Hard drives present...? maybe i need to keep it as AHCI...? ill have another look at he HD partitions to sus it out. ill be back Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41661-jas1048amdintelsse2sse3-dvd-boot-error/page/2/#findComment-368208 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MenZa Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 I had this problem as well; I used the 10.4.7 JaS kernel ages ago, and that worked, but I had some driver issues; but they appear to have been fixed now, so I decided to try again, but with 10.4.9 this time. I put in the disk and got this problem, so I decided to re-try the old disk, and got the same problem again. After running it in verbose mode (hit f8 before the count down ends, then use the -v boot flag), I got a lot of odd output, but eventually moved onto a GUI. I'm installing from there now . Hope this helps. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/41661-jas1048amdintelsse2sse3-dvd-boot-error/page/2/#findComment-381079 Share on other sites More sharing options...

firebush05 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Found a solution (I think). I had this same error until I enabled ACPI 2.0 Support in my bios. Once enabled, the error went away, and the install started. Try it out! EDIT: That solved the 'can't find root device' error, not the boot.plist error (which I also got, until I disabled AHCI, and enabled IDE, and avoided JMicron ports altogether). use a SATA or USB DVD ROM. jmicron IDE have problem to install. i install jas amdintel ppf1 ppf2 to Asus P5B last >eek and update to 10.4.9 but IDE DVD ROM didnt run.
