Huttah Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 I don't think I've ever seen such a lack of help for anything in my life :-/ Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/97483-error-after-language-select-on-install/#findComment-700415 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huttah Posted April 7, 2008 Author Share Posted April 7, 2008 I'm not stopping until I get help. I've tried without -v -x, etc etc. I'm getting this now: My specs are in the first post. Unless there's something else you guys need.

Huttah Posted April 8, 2008 Author Share Posted April 8, 2008 Wow, guys. I heard this was the best place to go for help. Guess I gotta try somewhere else. Thanks for nothing.

hecker Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Hey, sorry man but this ain't no technical support site, hmm-k? It could be that you have to change some BIOS settings or maybe try burning the DVD on quality media and slow speed (like 4x). Did you search the forum for people with similar specs to yours? If that doesn't work, you can also try with -v and post a screenshot of the error msg.

Alex7575 Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 LOL, posts like this one are what made me stop helping people on this forum. Do people think we are obligated to help them, and promptly? When I got started OSX was still on Tiger version and that was 10.4.8, and it wasn't until Leo that I got my computer running OSX. Sometimes people haven't encoutered the problem you have, so there aren't answers. Sometimes the question has been answered so many times, it's obvious you haven't even tried. Like this guy, he comes to this forum not to ask for help, but to demand it. Amazing...

Huttah Posted April 8, 2008 Author Share Posted April 8, 2008 This is the second topic I'd posted. It's not like I was impatient for long. You think after 5 days someone would see it. I had to post the same subject twice, and in the first topic i wasn't demanding, more like begging. I was on my laptop, and i had my other HDDs unplugged cuz I dont wanna screw anything up. And since I'm sorta limited on space with my desk and all, because of shorter cables, I have to unplug EVERYTHING from the back of my computer, pull out my computer, and do what I have to do to hook everything up. The 40GB HDD i wanted to install it on was unplugged at the time of my deciding to put Leopard on. I can't afford longer cables for things like that, so it's kind of frustrating, as you can imagine, to do this every time someone suggests something. @Hecker, what is considered quality media? I'm using Verbatim. I burned at 4x, and it took me a good hour and a half just for Kalyway to burn onto the DVD using Nero. I couldn't find anyone else with my setup, I'd searched through before I had even signed up. Thanks for the help. I'll run with -v and take a shot of the error.
