daddymac502 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Hi Everybody, I have tried to install "Zephyroth Leopard 10.5.2 AMD, EFI & GUID" dvd version 5 or 6 different times. I used 3 different images to burn from and I also used 4 different types of medium to burn on. I have no trouble booting up off of the dvd. Also I'm able to make and formate the drive for OS X file system. My problem is when I'm installing I have 19 minutes remaining when I get this message "INSTALLATION FAILED. MAC OS X COULD NOT BE INSTALLED ON YOUR COMPUTER. THE INSTALLER COULD NOT VALIDATE THE CONTENTS OF THE "JAVA TOOLS" PACKAGE. CONTACT THE SOFTWARE MANUFACTURE FOR ASSISTANCE. CLICK RESTART TO RESTART YOUR COMPUTER AND TRY INSTALLING AGAIN." I get this message everytime I try to install. If their is anybody out there that knows a command that I can put in at boot up. I would appreciated. Or if you happen to know a work around I would be very greatful and all ears. thank you Daddymac502 Specs Motherboard: CPU Type DualCore AMD Athlon 64 X2, 2521 MHz (12 x 210) Motherboard Name Asus A8N-SLI Premium (3 PCI, 1 PCI-E x1, 1 PCI-E x4, 2 PCI-E x16, 4 DDR DIMM, Audio, Dual Gigabit LAN, IEEE-1394) Motherboard Chipset nVIDIA nForce4 SLI, AMD Hammer System Memory 1024 MB (PC3200 DDR SDRAM) BIOS Type Award (08/10/06) Communication Port Communications Port (COM1) Communication Port ECP Printer Port (LPT1) ASUS A8N-SLI Premium ACPI BIOS Revision 1303 DualCore AMD Athlon 64 X2, 2521 MHz (12 x 210) Motherboard Name Asus A8N-SLI Premium (3 PCI, 1 PCI-E x1, 1 PCI-E x4, 2 PCI-E x16, 4 DDR DIMM, Audio, Dual Gigabit LAN, IEEE-1394) Motherboard Chipset nVIDIA nForce4 SLI, AMD Hammer System Memory 1024 MB (PC3200 DDR SDRAM) BIOS Type Award (08/10/06) Communication Port Communications Port (COM1) Communication Port ECP Printer Port (LPT1) Display: Video Adapter NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GTX (256 MB) 3D Accelerator nVIDIA GeForce 7800 GTX Monitor Samsung SyncMaster 245B/245BW (Digital) [24" LCD] (HCJPA01664) Multimedia: Audio Adapter Hercules Game Theater XP Audio Accelerator Storage: IDE Controller NVIDIA nForce4 Parallel ATA Controller Storage Controller NVIDIA nForce4 Serial ATA RAID Controller Floppy Drive Floppy disk drive Disk Drive Maxtor 6B250S0 (250 GB, 7200 RPM, SATA) Disk Drive Maxtor 6B250S0 (250 GB, 7200 RPM, SATA) Disk Drive WDC WD1200JB-75CRA0 (111 GB, IDE) Disk Drive WDC WD2500JB-00FUA0 (232 GB, IDE) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/89933-failed-install/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houbos Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 I have similiar problem with "Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.1 for AMD SSE2/SSE3 (32bits)". I also get "INSTALLATION FAILED. MAC OS X COULD NOT BE INSTALLED ON YOUR COMPUTER", but at 100% of installation. No reason, no explication. Installation to my PATA drive takes at least 5 hours. I'll try Zephyroth (Zephyroth AMD 10.5.2 Rev.1 MacOS) and We'll see how it works.
