The OSX86 image I am using as of this stage is the

JaS.10.4.8.AMD.Intel.SSE2.SSE3.iso

 

I used nero 7 ultra edition to burn the image on a sony DVD-R

 

Now ive used multiple methods of formatting and partitioning the drive as follows.

1. Booted the Mac Prepatched dvd and used the disk utility to erase all volumes and partitions and erased the "DISK" with the MAC OSX journeled option.

2.Used ACRONIS to create FAT32 partition

3.Used Partition Magic to create FAT32 partition.

4.Used Partition Commander to create FAT32 partition

 

I made sure that they were always "ACTIVE"

 

Now for the installation part I went through the install and customized the install and selected the Intel patch. Install went through successfully all 13 times I did it with no problems. Finally I reboot after all 13 times and get nothing but a black screen with a flashing cursor and no hard drive activity. This is my current problem. I have tried everything from every install guide on the internet that is involved in installing the osx86. I am stuck and dont know what else to try. I would really like to talk to someone either by email or phone or live chat or on the posts in the forum. I would appreciate any help.

 

Thank you,
