how do i do that if i can't even login though?
|
Use your install DVD and use the Terminal to install kexts via an external drive (USB HD, Flash Drive, etc).
|
Do you have a other osx installation?
Try removing the kexts for youre gfx card. If not try booting into safe mode, -x. Hope it helps :) |
Retail / Native Running OS X on Hacintosh
While I don't have a Phenom CPU, I thought it fitting I post here stating I am running native OS X via my Hacintosh (same one in the specs) by using the method munky proposed both here and at his original location at insanelymac.com.
http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=127330 EDIT: I figure I better explain... everyone has probably read munky's post here: http://www.infinitemac.com/f19/howto...alls-on-t1609/ so it comes as no surprise that this method can now be used with the voodoo RC kernel on the EFI partition of a GUID partition schemed drive. |
Did you use a boot 132 cd?
If so could you maybe post you're cd? Got the same pc as you ;) Edit: Just did a fresh install again, updated to 10.5.5 using the apple update with the intel kext loaded. I only had to recopy the rc1 kernel... |
just a nice simple tip always keep 2 copies of kernel on root i call 1 backup then if an update puts a new kernel on i just type backup -v -f at bootloader screen then recopy mach_kernel
|
I did the same... I had mach_kernel and voodoo (both were the same file but one was just a rename)... that way, during an update I just used the boot flag "voodoo -f -v" and it worked.... that was also back in the beta days of voodoo.
|
ya, since i rarely shut my osx down i just renamed my kernel mach_kernel2 and left it at that. after the install loaded up the old mach_kernel2 and still no load. do you think its the video kext for sure? if it loads into a blank screne? is that more times than no the problem? because if so i will def try loading the kext through terminal. now i just need to learn how to use terminal
