Malier Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Hello, I have searched around and haven't found a solution to my current problem. I am trying to install OS X on my laptop using the JaS 10.4.8 patched with PPF1, PPF2, Defiant Disk Util 7, blacksoul AppleNForceATA, and JaS.10.4.8.AMD.Intel.SSe2.SSe3.v1p on a HP Pavilion dv6000 with a mobile AMD sempron 3500+, 1024 MB of ram. I load up the JaS dvd into the drive and start it up in verbose mode, -v, and then when everything loads up I got to the disk utility and then try to format my hard disk to NFS+ with journaled but when I click on the erase button the cpu light turns on and doesn't blink and then dvd stops spinning and nothing happens, I've kept it on for about an hour with nothing happening. I've tried it without using verbose mode but I get the same problem. Any ideas how I can fix this?

Malier Posted April 15, 2007 Author Share Posted April 15, 2007 *bump* hmm no one has a fix for this problem? I've tried the VMWare install method but when I boot up the disk it doesn't recognize the harddrive so I can't format that way.

Malier Posted April 16, 2007 Author Share Posted April 16, 2007 Well I got it to load by using my desktop as a guinea pig for installing it with the amd drivers and all that then made a ghost image and put it on my laptop. After that when I load up OS X it stops at BSD root: disk0s1, major 14, minor 1 jnl: replay_journal: from: 7020032 to: 4977152 (joffset 0x2a000) I'm thinking that my hard drive isn't supported or something since every time I try to load it or reformat it with OS X it just stops cold.
