wobley_16 Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 A few days ago I started setting up some things to install, yesterday I burned the .ISO for mac os x Kalyway. My bios is set to load firstly the CD/DVD drive and the second one is the HDD. This morning, I started the pc up with the install disk inserted. I get a screen where I can press F8(not my bios screen) and typed -x. The system loads the installation. A little while after that I see an apple logo with a round, circulating, thing underneath the apple logo. After a few seconds-minutes there is a little cross in the apple logo and I cannot hear the CD drive spinning anymore. I tried it also without pressing F8, doesn't work either. What can I do about it?

wobley_16 Posted February 16, 2008 Author Share Posted February 16, 2008 And BTW when I press f8 in the installer and then type -s, it says: "*Standard info* ...Mac Framework successfully initialized using 2621 buffer headers and 2621 cluster IO buffer headers 10APIC: Version 0x21 Vectors 0:23 ACPI: System State [s0.S3.S4.S5] (S3) Extention "com.apple.driver.ApplePCIConfigurator" has immediate dependencies on both com.apple.kernel and com.apple.kpi components; use only one style. mbinit: done Security auditiing service present BSM auditing present From path: "uuid" Waiting for boot volume with UUID F0F8EEC8-E6A8-3F3A-888A-C706B63FB076 Waiting on <dict ID="0"><key>IOProviderClass</key><string ID="1">IORecourses</string><key>IORecourceMatch</key><string ID="2">boot-uuid-media</string></dict> USBF: 1.718 AppleUSBOHCI[0x26ce800] : : CheckSleepCapability - OHCI controller will be unloaded across sleep USBF: 1.726 AppleUSBOHCI[0x26ce800] : : CheckSleepCapability - OHCI controller will be unloaded across sleep AppleVIAATADriver : VIA 8237 SATA (CMD 0x8440, CTR 0x8430, IRQ 22, BM 0x8400)" And now he's still asking: "Still waiting for root device" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3xploit Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 Me too, got the same problem. I can't even boot xp anymore, even though it shows that I have xp installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
