Leopard Installation Problem...


5 posts in this topic

Recommended Posts

I used the Leopard Flat Image for my Installation on my Gateway MX7515 and I've installed the ATI x200 Southbridge Drivers and the Modified mach_kernel and AppleSMBIOS.kext for AMD Processors... Though I'm stuck here.... Can anyone help me out?

 

System Specs:

Gateway MX7515

Mobile AMD Athlon 64 4000+ Socket 754 (SSE, SSE2, and SSE3)

ATI Mobility Radeon x600

ATI x200 Southbridge

ATI IXP Sound Card and Modem

Broadcom 802.11g Network Card

Marvell Yukon PCI-Express Network Card

100GB PATA Hard Drive

56GB - "Windows XP"

40GB - "Leopard"

 

Installation Method:

1. I downloaded the Leopard Flat Image.

2. Repartition Hard Drive with Acronis Disk Director.

3. Resized Windows XP Partition from 93GB to 53GB.

4. Created a new Partition on the end of drive that was 40GB and type 0xAF.

5. I then ran "dd if=leopard-x86-flat-img of=\\?\Device\Harddisk0\Partition2 bs=32256 skip=1 --progress".

6. Downloaded tboot and edited boot.ini to include "c:\tboot='Mac OSx86 - Leopard'".

7. I installed MacDrive and restarted my computer.

8. I then deleted /System/Library/Extensions/IOATAFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleGenericPCATA.kext and replaced /System/Library/Extensions/IOATAFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleOnboardPCATA.kext with a modified version for my ATI x200 Southbridge.

9. I then copied the modified mach_kernel and AppleSMBIOS.kext to there proper places (mach_kernel -> /) and (AppleSMBIOS.kext -> /System/Library/Extensions/)

10. I then deleted /System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext

11. I then rebooted and selected "Mac OSx86 - Leopard" at the Windows Boot Loader. I let it load and it just stay there at a infinte pinwheel at the Apple Logo.

12. I then restarted and selected "Mac OSx86 - Leopard" again and pressed F8 and used "-v" and found it hanged at the part below.

Bump.

 

Does anyone have any kind of Ideas/Suggestion... Maybe some other installation Method... I choose this one because I wouldn't have had to modify the DVD Installation Disc to be able to read my Hard Drive because of my ATI x200 Southbridge... I also can't install through VMWare because for some reason or another Guest OS's run dreadfully slow... the bios can take up to a good 30 minutes to get through....

try booting with -v -x

 

it worked for my Kalyway which had infinite pinwheel, and for the first startup i typed -v -x, if it works, then you dun need to type any of these anymore. If it still appears.. erm... then try others. like cpus=1 or -v -x -f -o (-o got my sleep working, no idea why, not supposed to be of any use...)

Thanks for the reply but I have tried:

 

-v

-x

-f

platform=X86PC

-legacy

cpus=1

 

and yes I have tried them in combinations ranging from 1 to all.

 

I got a full list of flags and what they do here:

I am curious though... -o? Have never seen that one, and it is not listed in the topic I reference above.
