Deviant0ne Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 I had a working install with A Celeron 420, but I just got an E2140. I've read the WiKi and the forums and I know others have had success with this processor. I got the processor installed this morning, but when I went to boot up into my existing install, nothing happened. -v Showed no errors, no panics, nothing. I just figured I needed to reinstall. I've tried several different installs, including older Tiger installs, but all DVD's bring me to the same frozen screen. This screen, again, gives no errors, no panics, and it tells me is: "... MAC Framework successfully initialized using 5242 buffer headers and 4096 cluster IO buffer headers" Any ideas would be exceptionally helpful. UPDATE: I was able to get the Kaly DVD to install if I typed cpus=1 at boot, but after install, system still hangs at the same screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michrech Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Use cpus=1 when you go to boot, and see if that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deviant0ne Posted January 4, 2008 Author Share Posted January 4, 2008 Thanks for the response. "cpus=1" does nothing. I have posted a screenshot of the problem here. Any other thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LS8 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Hardware problem? Try booting some diagnostic disk (UBCD, SRCD etc.) and run some tests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houbos Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Try bootflag maxmem=2048 (maybe smaller value) or simply try to boot with 1gig of ram. It can sometimes help when installation freezes or crashes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
