Paramount Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I'm having some problems with Kalyway DVD with 10.5.1 in my machine. I have a Pentium 4 Prescott (3.0Ghz) with SSE3 (HT enabled). My mainboard is a Asus P4C800 Deluxe (i875p Chipset, ICH5 southbridge). Ram: 2GB Samsung TCCC. HD: 80Gb Seagate SATA, free for Leopard. I'll only use Leopard in this machine (no dualboot needed). The MD5 Checksum of my ISO file is OK with the Kalyway thread. I have tried to create a MBR partition (1 only partition), and install: -Vanilla_Kernel -Vanilla_ACPI_fix -NVINJECT_gfnvidia_desktop -BOOT_efi_mbr The install goes fine. But after reboot, It stops in a black screen, with cursor blinking in top of screen, and the HDD Led on infinitely. Nothing happens. So... I tried others installs: GUID partition, with BOOT_efi_guid. But I get an error in the instalation end... and on boot I get a message: /com.apple.boot.plist not found So, tried again: MBR partition, without Vanilla, but same as the first... a black screen without any information. If left the DVD Instalation in the drive, it starts the DVD... and only show the DVD option... no HD instalation. Do I have forgot anything? I need to install some other thing to be able to boot Leopard?

Paramount Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 I have solved the problem. A little change in my bios before the Leopard install. SATA to Legacy mode. Disabled the Floppy. The SATA HD is the first disk in boot. ------------- The MacOS is starting now... but... I get a loop in the Welcome Video... After the welcome video, I have to answer some questions... about my country (go ok), about my keyboard (ok too), and in the "Do you already have a mac?" I choosed: "Do not transfer my information now", and clicked in "continue"... Leopard hangs for a minute.. then start the Welcome video again... in a endless loop. Someone know how to fix it?
