168 Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Ok I download this JaS.10.4.8.AMD.Intel.SSE2.SSE3 because I needed it to install the brazil mac leopard. Now I found out that I need to have mac osx installed for even this? I can't find the instructions anywhere for this install JaS.10.4.8.AMD.Intel.SSE2.SSE3 Can I just install this on a blank NTFS/non blank NTFS HDD? Or do I need to convert it to this HSF+ format?

Nuifrkns Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 168, If this is going to be your first experiment w. OSX86, make it easy on yourself, forget about dual boot for the moment and forget about Leo. You will get there later, first get your hands dirty! Just devote a HD to OSX. You can buy one for a couple of tenners these days... I think a PATA HD is still the best and as I mentioned, boot from the Jas dvd, format the HD using DiskUtilities (Mac, Journaled) and install 10.4.8 on there.

168 Posted November 1, 2007 Author Share Posted November 1, 2007 It's going to be a bit different william as I'm installing Tiger, not Leopard. Anyhow the Tiger disk works fine, boots up into the install menu, but it won't detect any disks. I'm guessing: My 320GIG SATA disk is in NTFS, therefore Mac OSX can't detec,s o I'm going to format one disk now in FAT32. I'm using a Gigabyte 965P S3, so purple and yellow, ports, all sata drives, except for the IDE DVDRW, yes I know, I'll go buy a SATA DVDRW for the Leopard install (as I believe I don't need one for Tiger?) Any other tips? None of my SATA HDD's are being detected in MAC OSX BOOT. I have /SATA IDE in BIOS SET TO run as NATIVE, not LEGACY SATA MODE> Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/69001-jas1048amdintelsse2sse3-install/#findComment-490337 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuifrkns Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 168, So, you started up from the Jas dvd and got to the installation menu with the blue background desktop? If you are there, click the menubar (I believe its the Utilities menu) for the Disk Utilities program. Click that, then you HD may show up on the left if your SATA HD is recognized. If so, format / partition the disk. To install you need to have a partition that is formatted as MAC HFS+ Journalled (>5Gbyte, make it as large as possible). If your disk is not recognized, get a PATA! Again, if this is your first OSX86 exposure, as it seems it is, just stick w. Tiger for a moment and see if you can get that fully installed and running (displays, sound etc.). Then make a next step to Leo.

Nuifrkns Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Not sure, I know that sata support can be an issue. Maybe its the HD itself which starts giving up!

Rufus T. Firefly Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Not sure, I know that sata support can be an issue. Maybe its the HD itself which starts giving up! SATA is out because the disk doesn't even see it. It can't be the IDE hard disk because tubgirl 10.4.8 works and installs nicely to it (aside from the fact that upon reboot internet doesn't work) I just like how everything worked well with JaS and now I can't use it Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/69001-jas1048amdintelsse2sse3-install/#findComment-490487 Share on other sites More sharing options...
168 Posted November 2, 2007 Author Share Posted November 2, 2007 I've actually got the HDD working, I just went back and booted up a WinXP CD to format the C partition to FAT32 so that it could recognise in MAXOSX, had nothing to do with the BIOS settings. Only problem now once it finishes installing, it doesn't boot and just hangs there after the boot from cd icon (yes I have taken out the CD). I believe there is a fix for this and I will go read it up later on.

168 Posted November 2, 2007 Author Share Posted November 2, 2007 OK done a reinstall and now it [Tiger] Boots Forgot to install Intel SSE3 , drivers etc, this time I unchecked the printer drivers as I have a samsung. Now it tries to load into MACOSX after boot and just tells me that I need to restart MACOSX (None of the OS has come up yet) I get a semitransperant botx that tells me that I have to restart the computer.

168 Posted November 2, 2007 Author Share Posted November 2, 2007 List of Hardware Gigabyte 965P S3 IDE DVDRW SATA 320GIG HDD plugged into Yellow port Set to run at Legacy SATA/IDE, not Native mode I have successfully installed Tiger, but at the first reboot it gets into the blue screen and then some HDD activity which leads to the popup menu saying "You need to restart your computer" Anybody know how to fix this? Failing this I tried to install Leopard over it and just gave me an error message SAM Multimedia READ or write failed over and over again. Thanks guys - there doesn't seem to be much at all at how to install Tiger properly, it's all filled up with Leopard.
