New here, mods delete if this is spam, but I couldn't find anything close to describing what I should do about this when I searched.

Fresh install with the kalyway 10.5.2 dvd, sse2/sse3 on a dell inspiron 8600 laptop. Hard drive was clean, install went fine. When I booted after install was complete, it cycled at the apple logo. Then I tried booting in verbose mode, now it stops after this line: MAC Framework successfully initialized using 2621 buffer headers and 2621 clusterIO buffer headers. Then it stops. What can I do with this, and what do I need to do to get os x working here?

try adding other switch options:

 

-legacy

-x = I know this is safe mode.

-f

 

I was able to get the Install to boot with "-v -x -legacy cpus=1" but that was using Zephyroth's Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.1 on an AMD Phenom system
