I am trying to install MAC OS via many methods but none of them works,
I used a Kalyway version for leopard and the installation gets frozen when it says 6 minutes to complete,
I tried i Atkos version and when tried to install the apple logo appears for a second and the computer would reboot immediately,
Dont know what to do,
I tried installing lion and the comp freezes on the apple logo and no spinning wheel as well,
Here are my hardware specs,
Gigabyte H55M-S2 Mobo,
Intel I3 Processor-3.07GHZ,
6GB memory-1333MHZ,
Primary HDD of 1TB-7200RPM,
HDD Seperately for MAC-320GB 7200 RPM,
Nvidia Geforce GT430 Video card,
USB keyboard and Mouse,
BIOS settings are also changed from ATI to AHCI.

Dont know what else can i try,
Someone with this…:'( ::-*

Here is the pic of that freezing screen

Field Note #1 @AmitApollo 2011-10-01

iatkos L 1

I had the exact same thing happen with iatkos l1. Apple screen flashed for 2 seconds then it reboot endlessly. I finally got it to run when I installed the right version of Chameleon Bootloader. You need the new Chameleon 2.0.

I had RC5 installed, hence the reason it wasn't working. As soon as I put the right bootloader Chameleon version, iatkos L1 came right up, and might I add with a cool background, and icons.

For the life of me, I couldn't figure out why it kept looping! Hope this helps. Let me know!
