empyphil Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 I installed leopard using brazille macs guide. Problem is when I boot I get a cannot find mach kernal message flashing on the screen. There is a mac kernal file on the root of my hard disk. Any ideas? Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grama Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 well will it actually boot into leopard or does it stop indefinetely or reboot? u might try copying over a patched kernel from tiger just to make sure.... Grama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

user2 Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 you need to configure the post patch before running it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
empyphil Posted November 5, 2007 Author Share Posted November 5, 2007 I already did that, changing it to the leopatch folder and my leopard install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kseelbo Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Same thing happened to me after I installed Leopard. I had the patch.sh configured wrong (i.e wrong path to the patch). As soon as I changed the path to find the leopard patch, it ran and did not give me any errors. I rebooted and viola! Leopard welcome screen with audio!

russbeck83 Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 kseelbo, can you give me a step by step guide of how to do what you did to make it work. I had the same can't find mach kernel and am somewhat of a noob. I need some basic coding help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
