Mysticus C* Posted March 15, 2008 Author Share Posted March 15, 2008 Should I install the kalway update the normal way or should I follow the steps described in post #92? follow #525... no need for 92 anymore as I included everything in the installer so no manual file placement or fixing needed... install kalyway update(no restart) install my update with appropriate choices and restart wait, it will restart once more by itself (from original update) now it should go to gui, if u didnt choose anytg wrong... and report back if u want if u see anytg wrong...

(but make sure u formated the partition first) once restore finished... restart and place iatkos dvd boot from the iatkos dvd!!! choose your 200 gb hdd's partition and go to customize window of the installer... in the custom window, choose only!!!! the efi bootloader... nothing else!!! it will copy bootloader and make your hdd bootable... good luck...

AllenW Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Hi all, I was able to successfully get iAtkos v1.0i r3 to work, I have only experienced 2 issues... The only way I am able to boot successfully (without black screen) is adding the flags "system=X86PC "Graphics Mode"="640x480x32"" then it boots right into leopard, and it's interesting because when I get into leopard the resolution is full 1360x768 and beautiful just strange :/... Also, I might not even have to put the "system=X86PC" I just always have...Any ideas how I can resolve this, so I don't have to type this everytime? and the other issue is sleep, but I seemed to have successfully disabled it now (havent seen it try to sleep again...) but if possible I was wondering if there was a fix to make sleep work properly.. Any help is much appreciated! Thanks!!

bishan Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Hi all! @Zonker, thanks for the leads(about reading a few pages back) you gave me. I finally got it working So, I re-installed everything using iAtkos v1.0i r3 and did everything exactly as in the opening tutorial by Mysticus. Rebooted with the -v -f options and yes! it was there Now everything works fine, even when booting normally, i.e., without specifying any options. Thanks guys! Now I need to get a proper NIC and try to install 10.5.2. Cheers!

bassmanz Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Hi There.. I have been trying to get the instal done over a few weeks now. No luck so far. I have done a clean install and used MBR as suggested. I have tried the iAtkos v1.0i r3 The image loads successfully and set up is done. When i try to boot -v ,-x cpus=1 , it starts to load the setup from the hard drive and when the apple logo should come on it flashes and then reboots. I have tried many ways to boot it. Also tried Kalyway and iatkos r2. I think this would be a nvidia driver issue driver. Do you think I should just get a different card or wait till video issues are sorted. I do not know if it is easy to add the drivers to the boot process as I am new to Mac. If possible is this an easy fix to add the drivers with the NVinstaller?

When you are in customize window, what do you choose? any nvinject value for nvidia?

They all crash the reboot. I have everything unplugged ( sata,lan,audio card RME digi 96 ). I have tried to to the install as you have suggested and the last one was with efi only with R3 iso. When I used the Kalyway 10.5.2. I can get to install screen and pick the keyboard. When I used this and followed the prompts as I got to transfer files I would select none and it would cycle back to select keyboard again. The r3 ISO crashes on reboot after successful install. I am thinking that it is an Nvidia driver issue and am wondering if I should change my Graphics card . I have also selected the nvinject drivers on different installs. Thx for your patience ..

Your post said that if you run into sam media read or write failed, and then "still waiting for root device", that the SATA Optical drive should be replaced with a PATA one. No can do because mine is already PATA. It also said if it "just says still waiting for root device", than replace with SATA HD with a PATA HD. Well, mine doesn't say waiting for root device anywhere.

Plus i have read all your explanations before asking questions. I know it becomes annoying when people don't read 'manual" and then ask questions... i want to assure you i did. I just still having hard time making it work... ?Mysticus? I have fixed 'b0 error_' error but got another one. My BIOS stock in restarting cycle. I would assume that BIOS cant find the boot string to OSX, but i am not computer advanced so i might be wrong. If you want, you can help me in this...

chaosmunki Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 @ anyone: So, i have successfully installed iatkos v1.0i r3, used Kalyway ComboUpdate, and netkas 9.2.0 Speedstep (did this a couple of weeks ago). Added a realtek 8139 since marvell was kind of sucky with fast transfers. Had to reinstall twice after trying the Leopard Graphics Update, once from Apple, and once with the stand alone update. Everything has been fine until a few days ago (that was my backstory). And thanks Myst for all the efforts way back when. So, every now and again, out of nowhere, i get the screen greying over from top to bottom with the "you need to restart your machine" message with the power button background. Eh, so i reboot and usually everything is fine and dandy again. But it has finally become a pain in the butt, so I figured I would throw it out here. Upon my last reboot, I got a freeze at the blue screen. Rebooted again with -v to see what was up. Here is what I got: So I turned off my power, gave it a few seconds, booted, and am now typing this message from my os x. Any ideas on why I get the greyed out reboot message? Any idea what was up with the kernel panic I got? Anyone got plans to make a graphics update for ATI x1900gt (this was just a curiousity). Thanks guys.

(also OC too high?) get latest bios, read post #525 and get sleep kernel from there, see if it helps... @macciti: thanx for reading the tutorial... what i can suggest you is that write down everything you have done in an order, so i can follow, and also screen caps during dvd/hdd boot (with -v) so that i can see what error messages are being shown... than i can have an idea about what is going wrong... right now, i cant see any proper error reporting from you, no details regarding the errors? only after proper error report and screen caps of the error parts, i can help you better...

Mysticus C* Posted March 17, 2008 Author Share Posted March 17, 2008 @waldfee: dvd boot is indication of bootloader is missing... you can fix it by booting off DVD for installation.... but I think i know the one thing that will fix both of your problems... boot from the iatkos os x dvd for installation ok? continue to install window, and first choose your partition that you want to boot off from and in custom windows, choose only efi bootloader, and the ati driver for your gfx card ok? do not choose anything else!!!! that will fix your dvd boot issue and the gfx problem, than first try boot with -v only to see if you can boot to gui... hope it helps (i guess it should but i cant guarantee) and report back... @darkstorm: error message is indacating that HDD/DVD read/write error... is this screen from dvd installation boot? or hdd boot?
