cyrana Posted January 14, 2006 Share Posted January 14, 2006 We do sort of need details. Please post exactly what install of OS X you are doing (build #, patches, etc). In addition, the last messages that -v shows before crashing. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/6874-boot-problem/#findComment-42451 Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Elliott Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 Looking at your screen shot I'd guess that the external harddrive is the problem, there are a couple of lines that say that the AppleUSBOHCI (which all your USB services connect through) will be unloaded and then you get a kernel panic after it tires to load from the USB boot device. You could always try getting a firewire enclosure for your harddisk and see if that's any better, at the very least it should be faster, assuming of course that your BIOS allows you to select a firewire device to boot from.

Neo Posted January 16, 2006 Author Share Posted January 16, 2006 i tried to put boot without the external drive, but the OSX didn't start, too it stopped at the apple screen no message appeared Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/6874-boot-problem/#findComment-42885 Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Elliott Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 The tiger-x86-flat.img file is the deadmoo image insn't it? In that case you may want to boot with the -x option to stop the extensions from loading and when OSX loads remove all the ATI kexts from system\library\extensions, they stop that version of OSX loading if you have an ATI card as you do. You'll need to use bovinity as the password when you try and do this (you might even need the same password to get logged in been, a while since I used the vmware image).

Perhaps you are typing with the capslock on and entering -X instead of -x. Try this, when you enter your boot options just type "mach_kernel -x" without the quotation marks. If this doesn't work I don't know what I can do for you. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/6874-boot-problem/#findComment-43717 Share on other sites More sharing options...
