Yun Yuuzhan Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Hello all, i've installed Leopard with ToH iso, but after installation it fails. I have the _ on the top of the left. I tried to fixboot with the script method but it fails again (b0 error). How can i solve it ? My config : HP Media Center 7733.fr with Intel Core 2 Duo and Asus motherboard, 160 GB Hitachi SATA HD (just buy it for this...) and tested with IDE or AHCI mode. If i do the script again and again and reboot i got the "Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist not find" message... I tried to patch the system with BrazilMac-9a581-Patch but with no other result. I tried to use the bootsystem of the dvd with : Boot : rdisk0s1 or rdisk0s2 but no result again. I tried to activate partition with fdisk method but fails again... An other solution ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bacobacka Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Guys please excuse me for bothering but can someone explain if i can get somehow this Leo ToH Image to read my sata HD on my Amilo Li 1705 laptop...

If you can't find an answer for this install but want to try out Tiger, give XxX a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kzu Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Ok i'm having a weird problem that no one else seems to have encountered. Everything went fine, it boots allright and i'll get the choose language, register etc dialogs... After the "do you want to transfer files from another mac" thingie, i'll get the cool os X welcome animation thing, but... instead of going to desktop i'll get all those language choosing dialogs again. And again and again. Always after the welcome animations. What to do ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthMan Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 I'm an OSX newbie and installed the ToH with very little problems on a Dell E510. A couple of tweaks and the built-in network (Intel Pro 100) worked. I had to force a screen resolution of 1280x1024 in the boot file, but it looks good. My only remaining issue is sound. I have a built-in Sigmatel 9220 (VenID: 8384, DevID: 7680) that I can't seem to find an answer to. I've tried the tiger solutions, but haven't had any luck. Any help would be appreciated.

ACBz Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Installed ToH with problems, DVD boot hangs many times, then I tried with XxX 10.4.10 first and update with ToH, all went right but got the stupid kernel panic. Reboot hit F8 start as single user (-s) and it works. Install audio with taruga drivers alc882, video with Natit X1600. Reboot and got kernel panic again. Went to this forum and found Shoarthing did almost everything but didn´t work. Tried disabling Intel®SpeedStep Tecnology and start with no problem. Probably boot wouldn´t be a problem upgrading a previus working Tiger version. I spent all day long so I´ll go to sleep Good luck to you all and thanks ToH Team.

coachwoody Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Ok So i Dropped another nic in my machine and reinstalled osx and used that nic instead of the onboard nic. Doing that seems to fix the rebooting problem i was having. I think i now have full video card support after using the Natit installer for my 6600gt. The last problem I have is getting the sound card to work does anyone have any ideas?thanks-guhI thought it would make things easier when i tried to boot into vista thats located on another drive.-guhGuh,I run parallels, and somehow when I intalled it, it generated the virtual pc through bootcamp (which obviously was on my uphuck install) and it gives me flawless access to my xp partition (which happens to be on a seperate -physical hard drive.)Still haven't tried the 'upgrade' mehod over 10.4.10, as I am a bit nervous about wiping out my perfectly functioning setup-coach This is also aimed at falcnor and Lionskin...as I am interested in your successes. ZaQen - Hi: . . the easiest way even for the experienced is probably to first make a clean install to a bare HDD partitioned [MBR] & then formatted as a single active primary FAT32 using a Tiger 10.4.8/10.4.9 DVD like Uphuck 1.4iR3 . . this has very clear driver-choices & a working Disk Utility to reformat ['erase' in OSX-speak] to HFS+ . . do not install anything more than the bare minimum. . . then once you're successfully in 10.4.9 restart & use the ToH RC2 DVD & install over Tiger: this worked fine for me.This sequence is perhaps the least stressfull way because the ToH DVD has [iMHO] a less reliable Disk Utility & a doesn't automatically write a bootflag to the MBR.I am assuming I should use my unused partition to do this method versus trying to install over my current working copy?Will "installing over" 10.4.10 leave behind current files and apps, like upgrading from 10.4.9 to 10.4.10? or will I need to do a completely clean new install?

shoarthing Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 I just installed ToH on my 945GNT motherboard with a Pentium D 930 processor with 4 gigs of RAM...Problems:1. Unable to boot unless I have the CD in the drive,2. The finder menu seems transparent or faded...3. About this Mac shows only 1 core operating...What do I need to to to fix these issues?(my emphasis) Reboot to the ToH DVD, open Terminal, run /usr/misc/script.sh 'volume' where 'volume'=the name you gave to your Leo install partition. Do this as many times as neccessary [it may not work first go] . . if you check in Activity Monitor you will see both cores working; but you can find a newer kernel suitable for your CPU: I think the 930D is SSE3/64-bit so the latest netkas kernel [made last night from source ] should work - this should show your CPU as having 2 cores & will have support for 64-bit apps.any luck with this? all i need its "-legacy". i can't figure out what is wrong. if anyone knows what i should change in my BIOS, then please tell me. i have an ASUS P5K Premium . . '-legacy' forces 32bit, so your BIOS setup has some errors re: 64bit operation.For me, in BIOS/Advanced/CPU I unchecked everything except 'Max CPUID value limit' & 'Execute disable function' - virtualisation is always enabled in my BIOS version.I also enable ACPI v 2 & memory remapping [i am using 4GB of memory] - pretty sure you should always have ACPIv2 enabled. . . without these settings & when first installing ToH, I had t boot with '-legacy'is this version the RC2 of leopard or the Gold master? RC2 of the ToH project DVD. The version of Leopard on the DVD is 9A581 [aka: GM]. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
