Haiku-Fan Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Can please help me anybody? That's my problem: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?s=&...st&p=529400 And now I also have tested the NVinject installer without success. The failure is surely very simple but I can't fix it through myself. I need your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erron Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I have dealt with this for a couple days. I havent had any crashes or anything as of yet running cs3, office08 and ilife08. The keyboard and mouse thing...let me share my experience. My non usb keyboardand mouse do not work if I just start the machine. I have to use my usb ones. However, If I plug something in a usb port (flash drive,wireless key) and then press spacebar during a couple times when it shows errors during boot, my native(laptop) keyboard and mouse work. I could not tell you why or how. I just know that those are the steps I have to take to get mine to work. some of you out there should try it. You may not need to use the spacebar. If I dont press the spacebar right at boot itll say it cant find any of the config files and not load. The steps I take: Plug in wirelsss usb power on press spacebar press enter at o/s selection screen press spacebar at two errors during boot then it boots up, and everything works great! Hope this helps someone, and if anyoen knows why it does that let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergiales Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Erron, Thanks for sharing. I'm a bit disappointed on how software works. The distro itself is a great effort from Zephiroth. Perhaps I should keep trying it more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Snowski Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 so I just tried launching iPhoto (updated) from the leopard install in my Tubgirl 10.4.10 install and it works. I'm gonna try Marvins Utility and see if it can fix something for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What Device ID and Vendor ID are you using? if they are correct try to patch the NVDANV40Hal.kext with you ID, remove all the others. Then delete all other VNDANV (10,20,30,50). clear the cache and reboot use -f on boot to make sure the kext are reloaded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zetsubou Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 So i'm trying this for the first time, I've burned it to a dvd and tryed to install. My problem is it gets stuck on "waiting for root device". I've looked around and made sure i was using my hdd as a master and not a slave, as well its also a sata connection, heres my specs. Asus A8v-XE AMD 3800+ 8800 GTS 320mb 1 gig ddr ram If you need more just ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Dingo Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 well i reburnt it, and it works fine now but its waiting for a rootr device, probably because my HD is sata, i only have one ide slot on my motherboard, and my dvd drive is in master on that, can i connect a ide HD to that? in slave or master?
