rocketscience Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Hi, Total noob here and don't know squat about macs or programming but want to try the leopard out on my x86. (After trying iatkos 1,r2, and kalyway with guid, rdisk/fdisx/xdisk/bless/boot0 and all that fun stuff) I finally got kalyway/mbr 10.5.1 to install. The system boots, however keeps going back to the welcome graphics after I select "Continue without migration" or something like that. I have a d3ll dimension 9200, (i965chipset), q6600, 2gbram, geforce 8300gs, usb keyboard/mouse, sata drives. Essentially, it goes like this. Boot 1 Fancy welcome screen (flying text in the multiple languages on 'galaxy' background) 2 Request to select keyboard/language/country type - I select USASNI/english/us 3 Request to select migration from pc/backup/another mac/none - I select none 4 disk thrashes about, I see pinwheel spinning 5 Repeat from step 1 Can anyone help me with this quandry? I'm going insane. I have tried selecting -x at the darwin prompt and holding shift down. Still stuck in a loop. Thanks, pigga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrenbird Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 even though you got it working i just wanted to let everyone know that selecting migrate from another volume got me around it. I just transferred my network settings from my tiger install. It was fast, since it's only 10kb to transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
