KurtisFish36 Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Okay, here are my specs: Intel P4 1.8Ghz desktop PC Mobo: Intel Desktop Board D845EBT Graphics: ATI Radeon All-In-Wonder 7500 120 GB HDD which currently has XP Pro installed on it -- (I plan on formatting this using disk utility) 160 GB HDD which is a backup drive formatted in NTFS DVD-RW DL drive CD-RW drive there isn't any built in display adapter -- this is a PC I just pulled out of the closet to hopefully make myself a nice little mac Here is the problem: Downloaded the latest Kalaway image from TPB and placed it onto a DVD, put it into the drive, restarted the PC I get the option to press F8, or continue on booting, I have tried both after F8, I have tried typing in all kinds of stuff that I have read online (and without much unix or vanilla/darwin experience.. I am kinda dead in the water) anyways, I have tried using: vanilla -v and any other extension I could find (cpus=1), etc etc I started to load some files... HFS+ file [vanilla] from 4230480... and on and on and on whatever I do-- the PC always just restarts by itself -- and boots back to the DVD again What is the EXACT command I need to type to load this installer... or is my hardware incompatable? Thanks for your help in advance, I know I am asking the true pros in the industry. -Fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It caches the installation files on to your HDD before installing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
