i would like to install Autodesk Smoke for mac and for that minimum sys req is Snow Leopard 10.6.2, hence it would be great if you can update your script for 10.6.2

I've tried a couple of installation methods, Lifehacker's and sk1nhd33t's. I've restored a retail dmg to a Sandisk 8gb thumb drive, partitioned in GUID. I am trying to install on a 60gb IDE HDD in an external USB case. I have a 500 gb SATA drive for data, but not installed yet. I only get a blinking cursor at boot-up.
pertinent (I believe) BIOS settings
1st boot device: USB Sandisk
SATA: AHCI
HPET: Enabled
AM I missing a USB BOOT enabled? Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated.

*SOLVED*
I had a bad USB Thumb drive.

Now I can make it through setup, but am unable to log in. It doesn't recognize Username, Password. I re-setup with no password, but still no luck. It is an external drive, so I can go to a SL machine if anyone knows how to get past log in.

Thanks

hi guys,

I used the snow installer provided here with a snow leopard iso restored on my pendrive. then I copied the extra folder from here, http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/ind...topic=210118ot made the booter into the ASUS-K50IN/K40IN-BootCD v2.

managed to get to the boot screen and pressed enter to get the installation started. It started reading then this happend.
What could have caused this ? Im using a Asus K40IN.
thanks...

I've the same result using an ASUS K50IN, using 10.6.3 version
Almost the same screen from tukangreka, final message: System uptime in nanoseconds: some large number
I've already tried:
-boot with "ForceHPET=Yes"
-nullcpupowermanagement ktext
-there is no option for enabling the HPET via the bios

There is a lot of people in this forum with a successful asus k50IN hackintosh, some say this is the ideal laptop for osx...
Someone can help me?
