joachim_vanhove Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 I'm trying to install an OSX 10.4.6 on my desktop computer. I've installed the Acronis Software as instructed in the manual I found on this forum. When I boot my computer with the dvd in the drive the grey screen with apple logo in the middle appears. After a while a little sign appears on the screen (see screenshot) and the setup doesn't continue... the spinning thing at the bottom keeps spinning all the time... What can i do? EDIT: When I choose for verbose mode it hangs after displaying the line "still waiting for root device". My configuration: Pentium 4 2.67 ghz Asus P4S533-X 1 GB RAM Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/61273-installation-wont-start/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danyel Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Hi Joachim: I usualy get the "waiting for root error" when OS X is trying to detect Integrated Peripherals (On-Board Devices: Modem, Sound Card, Network Adapter, etc). Try disabling some of the Integrated Peripherals in your BIOS and then try re-installing off the DVD. I'm running Myzar 10.4.6 on several machines (Dell Inspiron 1300, Dell Optiplex GX-260 with NVidia Card, mPC 915 Barebones). --danyel Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/61273-installation-wont-start/#findComment-434701 Share on other sites More sharing options...
