golosin2 Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Sorry for my english. I have this computer (Compaq SR1339ES) P4 HT 3.2Ghz, fsb800, socket 478. MB: Asus P4SD-LA Gfx: GeForce 5500 Sound: integrated AC'97 Hard disk: 1 s-ata (4 partitions FAT32, the first one with WinXP) and 1 IDE (exclusively for Mac OS). I had JAS 10.4.8 in the IDE drive and it worked perfectly, all components (including grafics and sound) worked ok without had to patch anything. Chain0 method worked fine. Updated Tiger to iAtkos 1.0 and kernel Panic. Installed iAtkos again erasing iIDE har drive and error boot.plist Installed Kalyway and blinking cursor error. The fist time bootd form dvd. Introduction vídeo, lepard worked (grafics, sound and ethernet ok). But the nex time i turn the computer on, it freezes on the grey apple screen and i have to reinstall. I have used Gparted to flag IDE drive to active and nothing happened. I have tried the Chain0 method and it show "No HFS partition found" error. Questions: 1.- With this computer, i have to install efi, vanilla,...? 2.- MBR or GUID? 3.- What i have to do to get bootloader working? Thans a lot and sorry for my english.

Hyper X Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 You Cannot USE EFI with P4with P4 it means you can only USE MBR Geee I guess my Northwood 2.8 P4 478 must really be something else as I use EFI 8.0 on a GUID Mobo. *Rolls his eyes* EFI WORKS FINE WITH P4's... vanilla kernel does not!

golosin2 Posted January 11, 2008 Author Share Posted January 11, 2008 Geee I guess my Northwood 2.8 P4 478 must really be something else as I use EFI 8.0 on a GUID Mobo. *Rolls his eyes* EFI WORKS FINE WITH P4's... vanilla kernel does not! iAtkos or Kallyway. I have read your thread, about turn off the computer. Did you solved it? Same problem here and i must reinstall very often. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golosin2 Posted January 12, 2008 Author Share Posted January 12, 2008 Updating: I have installed Kallyway. The only options installed are: efi mbr, sound and grafics ktext. Leopard recognise my PC as a Mac Pro. Chain0 method worked. When Leopard starts, it freezes at the gry (with an apple) screen. If I boot writing cpus=1 - v sometimes it boot correctly. Sometimes it freezes al random time of the booting process. Issues: 1.- USB are not working. Only work if i conect the usb devide before switch on the computer. 2.- Turning off is not working. 3.- Internet (via ethernet) is very very slow. 4.- When Safari finish to download something, Leopard freezes. ¿Any idea? Thanks a lot and sorry for my horrible english. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper X Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 MY only issues currently are the same as before. Sleep/Reboot/Turnoff which may never get worked out.Also the ethernet issue but I have not worked on it in a week. I need the 10.4.4 and 10.4.7 ionetworkfamily kextbut have not gotten it yet! Sometimes Peoples Gets Confuseds SticMANWhat version do you think will run on a PII 400Mhz, 512MB, 6GB, if any?None will.. PII is SSE only therefore cannot run. SSE2 is required!
