You need to research if your hardware even works, the database at http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page should help, if the installer works it seems that you neglected to install the right things.

Also your cpu probably doesn't work with the vanilla kernel, try the voodoo kernel or the anv kernel.
I didn't. I'm still a noob when it comes to the whole thing and didn't realize how much is involved.

I checked the OSx86 wiki and my laptop isnt compatible with anything (I checked the AMD website too, and found out my processor is very bare-bones.) My HP desktop is compatible though. I have the info to do the ktexts, so my main thing would be getting the OS to boot. Unless I have to do a ktext during installation so it would stop rebooting.

My question is, kernel? I know what it is and I know that there's different types. Does it give me an option to use a different one on the installation DVD? I'm guessing it is.


Sorry about all the questions. I'm trying to soak up all the knowledge I can so I wont run into another problem. >.>
