Guest Ramm Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Did you install the special packages for your system? You have to do a "custom install" when installing, and select the packages for your processor.

memyselfandi Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Well the iso that i used was Mac OS X 10.4.9 Intel SSE3 [JaS 10.4.8 AMD-Intel-SSE2-SSE3 with PPF1 & PPF2.iso + JaS.10.4.9.Combo.Update.Intel.SSE3.zip and that doesnt have a custom install thingy but i did check to install the amd stuff and the ati cards stuff that applied to my machine. I dont really know what the problem is. I installed it on an external hard drive but i dont think that has anything to do with it, lol.

eric cartman Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I also have this same problem. I did not have any issues during installation, i get the process ok. But after the first reboot (where there was a countdown), i would end up with an apple logo, then the notice that i need to restart my machine. Can someone help please? I'm using a Dell 2400 Thanks!

jimeney Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I found on Uphuck 1.3 dvd this was due to my P4 processor not supporting the power management. There is a patch (at least on uphucks dvd) that will remove this kext and let you boot as normal. AppleProcessorPowerManagement I think it is called.

logansosa Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 We all seem to have something in common. The "please restart your button by holding the power switch for several seconds or hit the restart button." After reading several threads, it seems that it has something to do with the partition being active or not, or so I think. I have heard some talk about fdisk and using hirens boot cd to set active partitions for booting. But I am not too sure about the details, if anyone knows of a "guide" for using Hiren's Boot CD, that would be great.

reibzen Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Im trying another method, I read on the forum that it has something to do with the extra software and drivers you install at the cosumise window. I ll post if it works. Grtz reibzen Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/52995-restart-message/#findComment-393081 Share on other sites More sharing options...
