Ok, so I have really tried installing the kalyway ISO maybe 60-70 times (literally, not exaggerating - 3 days of strait trying different bios options and partitioning options). So I have made a video of what I have been trying to, so for people who are very familiar with leopard, maybe you can help. I have installed Tiger on many systems in the past (not with this one, though), but I just cannot get this to work.

 

The Video is

Feel free to fast forward to where you need to be.

 

Things to know:

Specs:

  • MSI P35 Neo2-FR
  • 2GB DDR2 Ram
  • FX 5200 GPU 128MB

Also please note that Installing MBR achieves the same effect (I use GUID in the video).

 

Back story:

Ok, so this board won't even boot tiger DVD's. Kalyway's DVD is the only one that will, and only with the cpus=1 option. I have chosen GUID and MBR, but neither works. Always, the installation finishes and that cursor shows up. I have zeroed out the first sectors and partitioned, zeroed and then just used that partition. I have tried without using EFI at all.

 

Any help I receive with this will be greatly appreciated.
