i've just downloaded and burned OSX leopard 1.5.6 and burned the de-compressed dmg to a dual layer DVD.
1. popped in 132 boot disc (this one: media fire.com/?uwd9dtttjfk)
2. popped in the leo DVD which booted got to the white screen with the apple logo
but then after that just before it should load language selection it gets stuck. Meaning the colour circle will keep spinning forever.
does anybody has any clues ?
I've been attempting to install OSX for days now and I'm really pulling my hair.
thanks a ton in advance !
Jason.
