guzferreira Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 @CyberSoft: No I removed the GeForce.kext and still getting stuck on the "Creating Account" screen. If I boot into Ubuntu I can see that the account names that I created are in the Users folder so it seems to be creating them but just not allowing me to get onto the desktop.Anyone else have this problem or any ideas/solutions???Exately the same problem here!!!! tried everything, bios configs, reinstall, nothing solves this... if you find something let me know! : )Just got this to workFirst I installed the Kalyway 10.4.10 (with AMD ppf) and got "still waiting for root device"I was frustrated, and installed this directly over the Kalyway install (no reformatting), and it booted up with no problem. All the Kalyway apps work too. Thanx a lot zeph!I'm donwloading that Kalyway right now, tell me, did you customize the installation, or just installed? Did you change anything? I'll try that as soon it finishes downloading Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/73524-new-amd-dvd-for-leopard/page/74/#findComment-581151 Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could be because your OSX install is not on the first hard drive "0" and the first partition "1". How many hard drives do you have in your system? How many partitions on that hard drive? When you type "rd=diskXsZ" X is the hard disk number (starts at 0) and Z is the partition number (starts at 1). So if you had two hard drives in you system and Leopard was installed to the third partition on the second hard drive...you would type: "rd=disk1s3" since "1" indicates the second hard drive and "3" indicates the third partition on that drive. If it boots the install disc after you type this in and you are certain that you have the correct hard drive number and partition number, then I would say that Darwin can not find a valid OSX install and defaults to the install disc.

YureZzZ Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Need help =) I guess you all tired of this message here,do you? =) On booting from DVD it stucks on "still waiting for root device". I've tried -x, -v, and changing/swapping/reformatting HDD, CD-ROM. Nothing works. But before I've succesfully installed JaS 10.4.8 AMD on same PC with the same HDD(PATA). Any ideas?

zslinger Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Ok, been reading for 3 days trying to find the answer to my install issue. Stalled at install screen where it is going to copy files onto the hard drive. Any help would be most appreciated. DVD boots, I get to file installation point of install program and it says cannot install some files to the drive. Ran disk utility and everything is normal. The disk has one partition that is formatted hfs w/ journaling. The files start to copy, I can hear the hard drive, but then it abruptly stops and says can't install files. Sometimes it says installer cannot copy files and sometimes is says that my disk might be corrupt. Tried a different hard drive (Maxtor 100GB ATA) Tried fdisk -e /dev/rdiskX, etc Tried low level reformatting in XP Disabled onboard Lan, raid, firewire and all non-essentials Tried multiple partition schemes Tried Macdisk format and partion from XP Tried reburning the DVD slower Tried copying the DVD files manually with term to /Volumes/LEOPARD, starts but then get I/O errors I have a 80GIG WD ATA hard drive and it is master. The DVD is on the same line and is slaved. Asus A8N-VM Mobo, Athlon 64 4000, GeForce 6150, nVidia chip. The nvidia is recognized in the boot sequence. Disk probe fails to /dev/rdisk0s1 on occassion. I/O error. Both disks work fine in XP when formatted to NTFS. On boot up, CODE_SIGNING cs_invalid_page:p=41[configd] Clearing_CS_** localhost diskarbitrationd[44] CoreRaidServer Not Responding mDNSResponder invalid destination port (Several of these) jln journal start/end pointers reset Sorry if I forgot something.

But now even JaS CD waiting for root device. In the picture you can see something like IOATAController blocking bus - maybe this is the problem? I had this same problem at one point. The only way I could get it to work was to put the dvd as the master on the primary channel and put the hard drive as the slave on the primary channel. Once I did that it got me past the 'waiting for root device' problem.

cgsheen Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Updating ESCD...Success Verifying DMI pool data... and it would just stop there. It stops there because it can't find a bootable drive! Reboot off the DVD, press F8, type -s and hit Enter - boot into single user mode and use "fdisk" to make your new installation partition bootable. LOOK ON THE WIKI for exact instructions on using fdisk!

If anyone can help me I would apreciate a lot, thanks in advance. Update: Now just keeps rebooting right after loading dvd AMD64 X2 5000+ @ 2.6 Asus M2N32-SLI Deluxe Wireless Edition nForce 590 SLI 2G Kingston @ 667 nVidia 8600 GTS 265MB 80G ST ATA Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/73524-new-amd-dvd-for-leopard/page/74/#findComment-583059 Share on other sites More sharing options...
