Hi...

I'm new and n00b here..in need for some help by geniuses T_T

 

I was trying to install Uphuck 10.4.9 on my old PC

 

ASUS P4 B533

P4 nortwood 1.87Ghz(SSE2)

Geforce 2 mx400

no PCI devices attached

 

from the hardware I think it would be fine to install it

 

and I tried...

on the custom option I marked intel 10.4.9, intel SSE2 kernel, a few patch that concerns intel and SSE2 CPU's, no driver,all apps and a few translation

 

the first time I rebooted, I had seen the grey screen with apple logo in the middle. but it just hang right there, I tried to install it again with other option and i went worst(can't even reach the grey screen)

 

after a few times reinstalling, I always get the same hang at that grey screen, and sometimes there's a popup telling me to power off/restart in 5 language, well I followed it but the same thing still happens

 

and then I tried adding -v on the boot, it always stops in moreless the same error

here's the screen cap

what does that mean?where did I go wrong?

 

any help would be great, and pls use a n00b language, I;m still trying to figure out those unfamiliar words..

 

thx b4 ^^;;

I'm having the same problem but in Leopard. I tried your instructions in Leopard and it didn't work.

 

Are there any similar instructions I can use on my leopard so it doesn't hang.

 

Any help would be apreciated :P
