jdsmith2816 Posted July 27, 2007 Share Posted July 27, 2007 Greetings: I'm trying to use the Uphuck 10.4.9 v1.2 on this tower here at work. For the life of me I can't get it to boot into OSX after installtion. One time it just froze, next time it kernel panicked, and third time it just reboots as soon as it gets to the loading darwin message. Going by the specs posted at the bottom of this post, can someone suggest the proper choices to get this running? Or if this uphuck distro is not optimal then suggest what I should use instead? Thanks in advance for the help!

jdsmith2816 Posted July 28, 2007 Author Share Posted July 28, 2007 And what is this supposed to do? Is that something I'd need to do each time I booted the machine, or am I looking for some specific information from those commands?
