nylock10 Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 What system do you have (e.g. Intel/AMD SSE2, SSE3). Are you installing from a physical DVD or an image? If you install from an image, mount it with DAEMON Tools and then point VMWare to DAEMON Tool's virtual DVD Drive letter (e.g. "G:\"). Make sure you installed the correct patches (when installing, click "Customize" and install the patches appropriate for your system).

Eric.C Posted February 25, 2007 Author Share Posted February 25, 2007 k, i've installed the patches, but now i'm stuck at the gray screen. It does nothing, the spinner just keeps on spinning, however, there is disk activity, i have wated up to 20 minutes but it's stuck there Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/43322-os-x-wont-start/#findComment-311257 Share on other sites More sharing options...
