obsrv Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Hello, I have burned DVD of Mac OS X 10.4.9 by uphuck v1.3 and when I boot from DVD I get this message: System config file '/com.apple.Boot.plist' not found In my opinion I think that it is my USB-DVDROM fault. I have succesfully installed from the same DVD in WMvare, but I want to install on my desktop PC. Is it must have IDE DVDROM to install Mac OS X?

obsrv Posted August 10, 2007 Author Share Posted August 10, 2007 I have managed to install using IDE DVDROM, but when system is fully installed and computer reboots, I get a black screen, and nothing happens :\ Any ideas?

Grey-Echo Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 This black screen means you installed a package you shouldn't or didn't install a package that was needed, more specifically something graphics related. Reinstall and this time look at your package options. Go down to nVidia or ATI depending on your graphics card, and see if any of the options match your card. Remember that NV40 means nVidia 6xxx, or any nVidia card that begins with a 6. That includes laptops that have the word "Go" in them.

obsrv Posted August 11, 2007 Author Share Posted August 11, 2007 Ok I will try that. But what if I use VMware? What graphics card driver should I use?
