Problelm To Install Snow Leopard
I followed this guide to install Snow Leopard on my Dell Inspiron 1420.
I mounted the Snow Leopard image to an external hard drive instead of a USB flash drive.Darwin boots correctly, but when it gets to the Apple logo, it tells me to push the power button and restart again.

I have Leopard installed already on one of the partitions, but it barely works. It works enough, so I can mount the image.

Can anyone show me a way to install Snow Leopard on my Dell Inspiron 1420?

These are my specifications:
Intel Core 2 Duo T5750
Intel GM965
Intel 82801HBM (ICH8-ME)
DDR2 Dual Channel 3072MB
Mobile Intel® 965 Express Chipset Family
Sigmatel HD Audio
Broadcom NetLink Fast Ethernet
Dell Wireless 1395 WLAN

No, I didn't try any other guides.
Can you show me links to some guides?

  1. You have not posted picture correctly.
  2. Use -v at boot and tell what error you get.
  3. Use Empire EFI 1.8 or 1.7 Bootable CD.
  4. Set to AHCI in BIOS if have this option.

Specs:
MB: Asus P5K-E Wifi/AP - Works 99,9%
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 3Ghz
RAM: 2GB
HDD: SATA 500GB
GFX:Nvidia 8600GT 256MB - Works Fully
Cam: Logitech QuickCam Express 3500 - Works
Laptop: LG R405-A.CPSTV - Works solid

Ok, here's the link of the picture that I took:http://s255.photobucket.com/albums/h...t=P1000303.jpg

I couldn't get it to post properly.

As to booting with -v: I can't get to any screen that lets me enter these letters. (But there's a screen where you can boot with safe mode, or verbose mode anyway.)

The computer has been set to AHCI since I bought it.

I'll come back and try those other two methods you suggested.

Your picture is small, i barely see anything.. It is an Kernel Panic.
It will be easier to help you if the error message can be seen clearly.
By the way -v = Verbose.

You're using Snow Leopard. There should be no problem
