I'm from Germany and I try to explain my problem on English. Forgive me if there are some mistakes

Ok, Let's start. I have a Toshiba P200D-12U (AMD Turion 64 X2 Dual-Core TL-60) and I've already tried iDeneb 1.4 and iPC. It doesn't matter which version I use, always the same following problem:

I boot from the DVD and there's always a white screen with a Apple Logo. But there's no spinning wheel or anything else! After 30 minutes I just turned my Laptop off.

The DVD isn't the problem because I used it in two other PCs (both Intel processor) and there was a spinning wheel and after 5-10 minuted there was the installation guide.

I tried to boot with -v, -x, cpus=1,.. But it doesn't help!

Can anyone help me, please?

I have same amd processor on my toshiba lap top. I tried many osx-s to install,but every time it is the same. It is not same error like yours but it is look like this...and I dont know what to do.

Field Note #2 @juancarlos2992 2010-01-09

Have you tried pressing F8 and writing “-v -f“ ? ( i only saw you tried with “-v“, but not with “-v -f“ )
I had the same error as you and this worked for me.
