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 https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/87975-cross-in-apple-logo/#findComment-626908 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.
