Damn Chameleon.....doesn't work

I currently have Kallyway 10.5.2 installed, had to slipstream the SB600 kext on to the DVD, but it works. Perfectly.

I tried installing iPC, and it failed. Miserably.

It seems Chameleon is the problem. It doesn't like MSI K9A2 CF board with the custom AHCI BIOS and AHCI enabled.

Turn AHCI off, and it sorta works. On installation, it gets as far as a grey screen, and spins the beach ball.

I'm willing to try to help the Chameleon and iPC teams fix this release by supplying whatever info regarding the install that they require - Ask away.

I have the problem of not being able to connect to itunes sharing on my network, as well as ichat using bonjour. I didn't use any ethernet drivers when installing iPC, and have internet working fine plugging it into my router, as well as sharing files between computers. Also my TM gives the ethernet error. Is there a fix on the dvd for this problem? I'm using a Gigabyte P35-DS4 with its Realtek 8111B ethernet.
I reinstalled now using the R1000 psystar driver for ethernet and everything now works. I did try the NVinject driver for my video card but it didn't enable QE/CI. I had to reinstall without video drivers, and run efi studio, which did the trick. Also, now my TM seems to be working normally.

Same problem

I'm having the same exact error, DVD just boots and displays a kernel panic instantly. I never got to the installer.

Here is a picture of the kernel panic:



However, I have a bit outdated 10.5.2 DVD that works fine but wanted to try that one

- AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+
- Seagate SATA ST3360832AS 360 Gb
- 2GB DDRAM
- Geforce 9600GT
- AC97 soundcard
- nForce 4 motherboard from MSI

Looks like it doesnt like the voodoo kernel. Try booting with -x and see what happens. The older dvd probably uses the toh kernel. I don't know if this dvd includes choices for boot kernels, but other distros do. That way you could try booting with toh and see if it works.

Blah

mkay.. so I have tried to install 3 iPC disks that I have "acquired"... I get an error at the very end of the install either saying that the install disk is corrupted or that my hard drive cannot be set as the startup disk and that I should do it manually, though it wont let me. I'm using a PATA disk with a SATA converter. iPC wont detect the PATA disk on its own. I'm currently running leo4all v3. Works like a dream but it is only 10.5.2 and some new software I want to run is 10.5.5 and up. Are newer versions of OS X not PATA HD compatable? My PATA DVD burner was detected just fine. I have a genuine SATA HD but it is running my leo4all and I am unwilling to start from scratch again cuz I've tried a few times with no success.

My Hardware:
Gigabyte GA-965P-S3 (Intel ich8)
Pentium 4e 3.01ghz 800mhz FSB
400gb SATA HD (startup disk)
100gb PATA HD
PATA DVD DL Burner
SATA DVD DL Burner
Nvidia 8600GT

Can you try the PATA hd in a usb external case? I've installed onto a PATA hdd in my old laptop ok, must be the controller on your mobo. External usb drives should be ok, as I've installed a few times onto them ok.

GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS4 r2.1/8600gt 256mb/Q8200, iPC 10.5.6 vanilla/updated to 10.5.7. Gateway MX8738 laptop. Core Duo, GMA 950, Sigmatel 9250. Dell 1490 wifi. v5i vanilla. Software Update to 10.5.6. Dell D600 SSE2 PM laptop. 10.5.7/Voodoo XNU 9.7.

I'll try that but I had leo4all on the same drive for a while before I gave up windows for good and it worked fine

Wont make my hard drive the startup disk

Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem...
Install gets all the way to the end and then says the install failed because my hard drive can't be mounted as startup disk. Then I go to utilities/ startup and choose the disk, reboot and it works. So far its just annoying but I was just curious if this was a common problem
