gpompetti Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Ok, I'm struck between a rock and a hard place... My system: 3GHz Pentium D (Dual core), 2 Gb RAM, i945G chipset. I have two disks: disk 1 is a 250 Gb SATA with Win XP, disk 2 is a 120 Gb IDE (80 Gb NTFS, 40 Gb Mac OSX). Disk 2 is slave on the channel (master is my DVD burner. I have successfully installed OSX 10.4.3 (from a DVD with Jas Patches). If I run my system through VMWare (using the real disk, setup as slave with the DVD as master as it is in reality) it works flawlessly. If I boot from the IDE disk, Mac OS X loads successfully ONLY in safe mode! If I try to start normally I get the "You must shut down your mac" screen. Starting with -v shows a kernel panic. Any ideas? gp Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/8174-very-very-strange-behaviour-please-help-me/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metrogirl Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 It might be a display issue which some folks have had with JaS. Obviously with VMware you wouldn't get that display problem. Just an idea, sorry I can't be more help.

Technobob Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Have you tried to switch the slave drive to master and put the burner as slave Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/8174-very-very-strange-behaviour-please-help-me/#findComment-50824 Share on other sites More sharing options...
