UnaClocker Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 He forgot to mention that you need to enter the boot option -s when you boot from the hard drive, that will take you into safe mode text only mode. I had this same problem on my AMD 64 hackintosh. It was due to my network card not working. This will get you past the intro so that you can get network drivers installed.

Amilo Pro v3505 SCSI HD Thanx! the next screen after the keyboard setup screen is the network setup screen. if the previous method does not work for you, which it should.... you can also, after you install from dvd. boot from your HD. hit F8 till you get to the darwin prompt and enter the following boot flags exactly as you see it below... -x -v "Graphics Mode"="640x480x32" setup assistant is bypassed at this resolution... when it boots into the desktop, goto system preferences, accounts and set your admin password, reboot and then go work on your ethernet problem GL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
