Toshiba A505-6020 help
Has anyone had any luck with the A505-6020? I saw one post where the guy returned this laptop, because he couldn't get it to work.
I've tried Empire EFI, Snow OSX Universal 3.6, Tony Mac's iboot with Megabeast. I can't get the installer to fire up. The apple screen flashes, then reboots. I suspect that the problem is the video, but no options work. -x, -F, nothing. The graphics card is an NVidia GeForce 310M, which I've seen is supported by Apple, now. I can't even find an error, or anything to help me track down the error. The screen does not display an error before it reboots. Here are the stats: Toshiba A505-6020 Intel Core i5-430M NVidia GeForce 310M 4GB Ram 500GB HD Intel ID0044 Rev 02 Chipset Intel HM55 Southbridge |
Personally I haven't tried installing on that laptop nor have I heard of any success, I will recommend iAtkos V7, or iPC for you to try.

I have a Toshiba Tecra A9, T7500 2,2GHz C2D, Intel X3100 graphics, chipset Mobile 965, ALC262, 82566M network, 4965 Wifi...and a big problem regarding iPC 10.5.6 instalation on it. Every time I get the same stuff....Every time installation goes well and after reboot it only shows one vertical and one horizontal line on my screen and thats it... I've tried many different kext combination, but I think that every time I make some mistake... Below are the screenshots that I made and also screen from "customize" screen. Please tell me which options I should check. Sorry for my noob question, I am really new at this...

Also, I've tried to enter safe mode with -x and it doesn't, bars over the screen, again...Different colours though :)

Well I would not select the graphics kext until after a successful install, that may be causing the issue, only select whats needed to boot. An Empire EFI installation may be possible aswell with that machine, but I would select these options below:
Latest Voodoo kernel on the DVD. Slice's Patched USB kext Sleep fix. The chip-set appropriate to your system ( if listed ) I might would try the iAtkos Distro, haven't had any issues with that at all, thats what I use on my L305. Here's a link to a Toshiba install guide by me. http://osx86.net/f57/official-toshiba-l305-s5955-leopard-installation-guide-t5793/ I would wait until after a successful installation to install graphics kext. There have been alot of problems for people about installing graphics kext during the installation and not having proper working graphics afterward. |
00010 please could you help me!!!

Ok, well, you can check this out maxk77 -----> http://drivers.osx86.hu/show_file.php?id=90
This is the only thing I could find, there is a rumor that Netkas is updating his Atheros kext to work with this card. Can't make any guarantees....... |
does anyone know a great way to install OSX 86 on Toshiba Satellite A305-S6872 also if someone could tell me how to install it on an external hard drive.

mets, there are thousands of links to install leopard on this forum, just follow one but before you do check its compatible with your system.
