HeLLo,

I'm Sorry but ideneb 1.4 10.5.6 wouldn't boot at my Acer Aspire One A751h. It stops after some different Points.
Now the point is:
Nov 4 14:31:47 localhost kextd[47]: can't add repository (not a directory)
Resetting IOCatalogue
Nov 4 14:29:45 localhost kextd: root filesystem is read-only; skipping kernel link data generation

After few Minutes or Seconds the USB-CDROM Stop loading. A while later it loads some but don't write any on the screen, a press on enter then loads and and and... Then Stop it and the same Game again.

Does anybody have plugged into the AO751 a macos installation sata hdd from another mini portatil with the installation finished?
Maybe we can watch the error at installation process.

183gb ntfs (archives)
14gb fat32 (for mac)

I've just bought one of these and am stuck at the same point too...

I've tried the Hazard Snow Leopard disc, Kalyway 10.5.2 (Which I successfully installed on my Aspire One 150) and the Netbook Installer with a Retail Leopard - that didn't boot at all.

I first thought the problem was the Win7 partitions on the disc, so I deleted them. Then I took the disk out and put into an external SATA cradle connected to my MBP and formatted it under DiskUtility, 10.6.2.

I've booted the installers -s and run fsck

I'm still getting one of two errors...

localhost mDNSResponder[58]: Couldn't read user-specified local hostname; using default bDevice-0000000000.localb instead

Or the "root filesystem is read-only;"

I'm going to keep playing with it, but the panic is starting to set in 'cos I've bought this for the missus for Christmas!

Any ideas??

Right, so I've made some kind of progress here...

Took the hdd out and put it into my acer aspire one 150.

Installing to the hdd Kalyway 10.5.2 and re transplanting it back to the 751h...

In -v boot, I got as far as UUID issues with the USBFix kext, so I re-installed it without that.

Next issue was the ethernet's UUID, so I took out everything in the next install.

The post-setup boot on the AO150 got as far as clicking continue on the 'transfer files from another mac' screen - it hung...

I guess this was down to the Ethernet/WiFi drivers being removed, since the next screen is "How does your Mac connect to the internet" screen.

I'm re-installing Kalyway 10.5.2 now, and I intend to transplant the hdd back to the 751h before the post setup boot.

I'm making headway, but it's getting laborious re-installing all the time. Does anyone know how to remove/replace/fake the UUID calls from the boot plist?
