I remember installing in 1-1.5-2 hrs... in old days good luck...

breakingbad Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 These are the errors I´m getting when trying to install from Kalyway 10.5.2 • This is the error I get when using no flag like in the post - the error message appears so fast that there´s no lack of hope for installation to start. • So, facing this error, I tried using flag -v -x and the message that returned after the looping message of - IOATAController device blocking bus. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ These are my BIOS config. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I also tried using kernel: kabylkernel without success. So I ask, am I doing something wrong? Why I can´t even get to installation screen? Help wanted. Hope to hear from somebody...

Mysticus C* Posted May 10, 2008 Author Share Posted May 10, 2008 @br2akintry to enable cpu execute-disable bit disable legacy support and 1394 connect your hardisk as master, not SLAVE!!! execute disable bit (EDB) = enabled agreed legacy and 1394 support: not sure you have to first enable EDB and continue that way, if it doesnt work still, then disable legacy and 1394 supports... under nomal circumstances, slave master should not be a factor for booting... however some mobos/hdds can be pain to work with, MSI is one of them so although you can still work on slave, i would suggest to keep it as master to be sure... If above still causes trouble, since you have MSI mobo (really painfull mobo), i would suggest you to go with iatkos r3 with eqate's patch for bad bios... get iatkos 1.0i and update it first to R2 and than apply r3 bad bios patch... @ebaldazo: good luck with osx mate... welcome on the bus..

Allright, thanks for the input on the "mousefreeze" issue guys! I will try to get a hold of a netgear usb wireless and do a reinstall. I used the 8139 driver as well, so hopefully that is it. For the issue with some HDD's not booting using iATKOS, I had the same problem. However, it would boot if i changed the bootloader from EFI to Darwin. But Kalyway is probably the preferred installdisc now.

But Kalyway is probably the preferred installdisc now. + make sure you read the post#2 for netgear adapter's correct version/model (bcoz i cant confirm others even if they would work... + For the HDD issue, like I said, it is either Equate fingered too much with the low level number or it may very well be the efi bootloader we used which is different than netkas's efi bootloader, which may be not compatible with as many bios/hdds...(bios/hdd compatibility is highly likely reason for the efi-made by kabyl- we used...) + MSI mobos/laptops and ASUS Laptops have known problem with any OSX Leopard version, which requires older acpi/apic files to be replaced with current ones, thats what equate's patch is about which is found by another forum member (sorry forgot the name)... it is not really a patch, it is a matter of replacing files... or + MSI OEMs/Asus Laptop users can find Kabyl's topic for modified bios for this problem's total removal... good luck...

When I booted back I had a slight delay in the boot time and noticed some errors: IOKitWaitQuiet blah blah blah and boot-cache error. It does that and it takes a long time for leo to boot. anyways when i put in the iATKOS r3 dvd back and try to install a wierd thing happens and i get a message: still waiting for root device.

Installation detects all the partitions available on my SATA HDD. Formated one of the 20GB partition with journled file system. Installation goes quite ok till the 4 minutes remaining and freezes there. I tried lots of combinations in package selection and also tried to reinstall on same partition without changing it, but not able to move ahead of the 4 minutes remaining mark. My system configuration is as under...

breakingbad Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 @muitommy I used the config about the EDB and 1394 and worked. The problem I´m facing now is that my HD is not seen by the OSX. And I´m using the iATKOS R2 (patched to equates1 + badbios). Really strange for me because I installed the Leo4all V2 in this HD before with "no problems". You sent me an thread using a P6N SLi from .NetRoller (with whom I already talk to) but he told me is that a old version of ToH RC2. He discouraged me to use that version. That´s all by now.
