[cite] A_DoNuT333:[/cite]thanks but I always use -v when I install-makes me feel like it is actually doing something other than spinning an icon

.
No this happens after that all loads. I think it is trying to load the main intall GUI but it just stops when the cursor loads in the upper left corner. I can move the cursor but nothing happens.

Hey, I still have this problem. I tried to remove forcedeth.kext using -s on dvd bootup but that got me no where. I'm not even sure it removed it at all. This is very frustrating because I am so close to seeing the installer it's not even funny. Any help is appreciated...again. Thanks.

hello, i have been trying to install 10.5.2 zephyroth on my HP COMPAQ NX6125 Laptop. (AMD Turion64 ML-34 CPU, Atix200GPU). the installation starts with no problem, but when i start the installation, the progres bar moves a little bit and then it stops. while this is happening i can still use my mouse and click on the menus at top.. but the laptop is starting to overheating, and after a few minutes it shuts down due to overheating. is there anything you know abot this issue?

@dreampowder
The install shouldn't make your computer over heat by itself. You need to make sure you laptop is properly ventilated and if that still does not help, go by a cooling pad for it.
Back to your issue, is there any harddrive activity or DVD activity while it's not moving?

@A_Donut333

i am using a cooling pad already.. dvd seems to be working for a while but then it also stops. and theres not much harddisk activity either..

Hi all,

this is my configuration :
ASROCK AM2NF3 VSTA
Athlon 64X2 4200+

My problem is :
I can"t boot the new AMD EFI 10.5.2 Zephyroth on my system ..; because it always freezes on the blank OSX page (which ask you to reboot) and with the -x (and also the -s) command it freezes on the blank page (but without asking you to reboot)..

What's the problem with my configuration ?
Do i have to change something on my system ?

thanks a lot and congratulations to zephyroth !

Start with -v flag and make a photo of your kernel panic.

I installed 10.5.2 rev. 1 and I have a couple of issues:

When installing I need to have an IDE drive plugged in, not really an issue but still...
After installation I can't boot (same with GUID & MBR, tried both). Need rd=disk0s1 when booting from the DVD
Network is SLOW (rtl8139 pci). I have a nforce network card too, but it doesn't seem to load it or so
Can't load NVinject, says something about an undefined symbol in IOKit.kext (looks like a mangled C++ symbol)
Even though I picked 9.2.0 kernel, it installed the 9.0.0 kernel... ideas?

That's about it for now, otherwise seems quite nice

Thanks!
