Hi,

 

after flashing my bios (p5n-e sli to newest bios)

the installations runs without a error ... but after rebooting

there is the flashing cursor ...

 

no i tried all installtions and now i have

the darwin boot menu ..

hd(o,1) Leopard

but when i press enter - it doesn´t start.

in the background i can read something with bootlist ...

 

i also tested to activate the harddrive .. (fdisk -e etc.)

but no luck ... the same ...

 

I´ve tried mbr and guid ...

 

what can i do?

 

my hardware

2 gb ram, p5ne-sli, 7950gx2, sata hd and ide dvd ...

It sounds like you haven't set the boot flag for the partition. If possible, start up your pc with the leopard dvd that you used (or any leopard disc really) and don't press any keys just let the counter run down and see if it boots into your leopard partition.

 

If it does, its just a simple matter of setting the boot flag with a utility cd such as g-parted (its a small linux bootable cd that deals with hard disk partitions)

 

See if any of that helps

hhm... no it doesn´t boot after the countdown ...

 

but!!!

 

I tried this and I tried that ...

and now ...

 

i see the applescreen and seconds later i have a kernel panic (you have to restart your computer ...)

 

but ... i can´t press F8 before starting?!?!?

when the countdown runs, just press anything and then add a bootflag. du verstehst wahrscheinlich auch deutsch, oder? also wenn der countdown läuft einfach irgendwas drücken. ich drücke immer die cursortaste. und dann schreib "-v" hin. mal sehen was er dann hinschreibt, das wäre wichtig. ev foto machen.

Hi,

 

ja aber während des countdowns würde er ja von dvd booten ... (ohne dvd im laufwerk kommt nur der blinkende cursor) ..

mit dvd booten ... die 8 sekunden warten .. dann würde er auf die festplatte zugreifen ... macht das auch, aber stürzt ab ...
