Boot with -s, then mount your hd with this command:
Code:
/sbin/mount -uw / After that, navigate to the following directory Code:
cd /System/Library/Extensions/ Code:
rm -Rf GeForce* Code:
rm -Rf NVDA* Code:
cd /System/Library Code:
rm -Rf Extensions.mkext reboot - press enter Last edited by suzhou; 12-14-2008 at 07:07 PM. Reason: Layout correction |

it also looks like you still have NVinject installed as well. yet another full code for you: boot with "-s" Code:
/sbin/mount -uw / cd /System/Library/Extensions/ rm -Rf GeForce* rm -Rf NVDA* rm -RF NVinject* cd .. rm -Rf Extensions.mkext reboot also, if you have a MCP51, it is NOT your chipset causing this issue unless you've installed the wrong chipset fix... but looking at the screen, it looks like you chose the correct one. This "error" of "AppleNForceATA: found 0 units" is not an error. It is simply how the system responds to this kext and that will need looking at for future revisions... another flaw is that SATA drives attached to an nForce board don't have the ability to write (they don't with the currect kext or any nforce kext out there yet). Also, since this is your computers first time booting up after an install, it has not completely set up the network yet... this is done in the account setup process (that you may also get looping errors with... but there are other threads that explain it... yes, we can point you to them when/if it happens). you also haven't named your computer yet so it will say some Generic "bMacintosh-00...." name... all of this is normal. what isn't normal is the video... how did you customize your install (what did you select in the customize section)?

I chose 9.2 sleep kernel, forcedeth, I chose all of the wifi drivers, of course nforce ata, legacy flag, cpus=1 fix, amd patch 1, alc850, nvidia geforce 128, no applications

my suggestion to you is to do away with all the unnecessary "fixes" and install only what is needed to get OS X running. At least at first... this way we can isolate the problem...
I really think the video kext is the problem in all of this though... that would be the first thing I cut during a reinstall... remember, you can always improve from a working install. those packages aren't too had to find either on the net or on the Install DVD ( they can be found in the install DVD's /System/Installation/Packages/ folder ) EDIT: I find the nForce Test chipset fix to be the best... it allows better SATA DVD support (though you still will not have the ability to write DVDs/CDs) EDIT 2: also, which DVD are we talking about with the customizing now...? iDeneb, Zeph, or Kalyway?

would you be willing to try the iDeneb v1.3 DVD? (EDIT: I chose this one because it is the most up-to-date version that will require the least updating of your system... for now)
boot it with the flags: "-f -x -v" install only the base requirements to get your system running... no video or audio fixes for now... we'll get those done later. chose the XNU 9.4 kernel as well as the nForce Test fix. when you successfully install, boot with "-f -v" and let me know where it stands... hopefully you don't get the account creation loop and it successfully installs. Then we'll worry about getting everything else set up. Good luck. EDIT 2: BTW, you may want to look into getting a new video card for your system. integrated graphics don't always give you the best output for graphics intensive apps in OS X... you'll need Quartx Extreme and Core Imaging for a lot of those apps and the integrated graphics processors don't always provide these features.
