Dear Friends,

 

Seems Uphuck's 10.4.9 is a very good release and very well organized with regards to the available features during installation etc.. ( Thanks Uphuck! ). I managed to successfully install it on a small basic desktop Intel set-up with no problems at all and everything working like a charm.

 

However, on my main AMD set-up, I ended up with a *Blue Screen* after booting into OSX. I get past the grey apple logo and then I get a blue screen that just stays there. I've tried all the AMD kernels on the disc including the 3 Universal ones. I also made sure to check the Driver & NATIT patch for my Ati Graphic card.

 

Hard Disc formatted HFS+ and partitioned in MBR scheme. I tried the GUI scheme and I got errors when booting.

 

AMD set-up :

 

Athlon 64x2 4400+ Dual Core

Gigabyte GA-K8NF9 Ultra Rev 2 (nForce 4 Ultra)

Ati X1800 GTO Graphic Card

WD 80 GB SATA HD

2GB Memory

NEC 3570 dvd burner

 

Anyone with a similar mobo and proc please chime in and of course all the gurus are welcome..:thumbsdown_anim: Thanks in advance for your help, as always..!

at boot promt type -v (verbose mode) and post what error you get.

what do you mean by Driver & Natit for your card? did you install 2 different gfx-card drivers? if so that could be the problem. try with only installing only 1 gfx-card driver.

Hi Delish,

 

I installed the main ATI X1x00 driver and the Natit Patch for X1800 (I also tried installing the main driver without the patch but I got the same results) which is further down the list. I'll do a resinstall later tonight and will post the error(s) as per your suggetsions. Thanks for your input.:thumbsdown_anim:

 

Regards

Did you try installing with the login.app patch?

 

No. Isn't this for Intel only ? or can I use it for AMD too?

 

Thanks..:pirate2:

Hi Delish,

 

I tried to boot in verbose mode but the scripts I got went so fast I couldn't get to read what came up. A couple of days ago, I managed to succesfully boot but Im afraid I don't remember what settings I chose. Though I can still remember from the 'About This Mac' that my graphic card had no CI & QE support and the Memory reading was blank, though I've 4 x 512 sticks installed..Thats why I re-installed again but couldn't boot up again so far..

 

Thanks:)
