Field Note #1 @yusofu 2009-12-12

Fsvalin,

I think ur machine is okay for SL.

To date you've posted, lets look at any other post related to "ES2LKit", read it and get some USB stick and explore the possibilities.

Its not that difficult ;)-- normally noob will only take 2 days exploring and voila it works. I had successfully installed on GUID and MBR with above readings

Try it.

Good luck.

Field Note #2 @cj95 2009-12-12

go to bios , look for sata mode , put sata mode to ahci

Field Note #3 @dantan 2009-12-15

You need the IntelCPUpowermanagement disabler, or it might be something else, worth a try.

Boot with the flag arch=i386 and see if that works.

Field Note #6 @dantan 2009-12-16

I can boot into 32 bit mode but not 64 bit. I used -x32 at boot and worked 3 out of 5 times so far. Any reason why I cant boot into 64 bit? When I first installed , I loaded into 64 bit but then got KP while in desktop.

Field Note #7 @scififan68 2009-12-16

yeah the video kexts dont like 64bit mode, so you gotta get an 8 Series card or above if you want to run in 64bit mode.
