Slamjitsu Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 I recently tried installing the iATKOS DVD on my HP m8120n, it went through the install ok but failed to boot. Am I missing something?

Any help is appreciated. Same problem I have, different model laptop though. Does it just boot up and have a blinking cursor ( _ character ) ? I have a Dell Inspiron 9100 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/99494-iatkos-install-on-hp-m8120n-help/#findComment-710106 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Dell Inspiron 9100 Actually no, I only get a flashing cursor, I researched this and t says I need to use Gparted to flag that partition as the Boot partition. I did that and still no luck.

craigslistguy001 Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I know this is an old post, but it's listed in the top searches for "m8120n Hackintosh" and one I came across when I first started so I wanted to add to it. I was able to get Kalyway 10.5.2 installed successfully on my HP m8120n but recommend iAtkos s3 v2 10.6.3 instead because everything works better with it and it's an easier install. You just install it and update your internet/network kext and you're done. I created a step by step guide, hope this helps someone... http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=253357 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/99494-iatkos-install-on-hp-m8120n-help/#findComment-1661306 Share on other sites More sharing options...
