r00ter Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I was like many of you. I was so excited. Kalyway's DVD in hand, I thought I was but a few minutes away from having Leopard on my own Hackintosh. Four days later, I am writing this to you from my very own Hackintosh. Many of you may have had the issue where after installing Kalyway, the darwin bootloader flashes a few lines of code, leaving us all with one answer: . But no worries, a fix is here. The problem occurs with Pentium 4 processors, whether SSE3 or SSE2. The reason? Beyond me. It is vital that only the correct graphics card drivers are selected. The real problem, lies with the vanilla kernel. I have proven this on two Hackintosh's that the vanilla kernel causes the reboots. Using the sleep kernel, works just as well. So, grab a beer and install again - as it will work! I hope that helps some of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaKai Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I just finished installing 10.5.1 off of Kalyway and I'm running into the same issue (sort of). When I boot off of the drive with OSX installed to it, I get a screen with one line of text: b0 (the 0 has a dot in the center). If I boot up from the DVD, I enter the restart loop. So to resolve it, I should reinstall Leopard off of the Kalyway dvd and select what? Only the drivers for the graphic cards that I use? The sleep kernal?

r00ter Posted January 29, 2008 Author Share Posted January 29, 2008 Ninja, Make sure you partition as MBR, select the driver for your graphics card, and EFI_MBR. Do NOT select the vanilla kernels, and simply install. Let me know how it goes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaKai Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Great, just reloaded the installer (boy, that takes a few minutes!) and I am starting the process of reinstalling. I'll update you on its success. So since the issue is with the vanilla installer itself not the graphics driver, there isn't a method for correcting it post install other than reinstalling? Edit: What is the difference between the NATIT_gfnvidia and NVINJECT_gfnvidia_desktop driver packages? Does NATIT_gfnvidia contain the desktop drivers and something else or is it an alternate means of loading the drivers? I'm installing with NVINJECT_gfnvidia_desktop for this try.
