Hey WinLan did it work ok installing Leopard on a SATA Hardrive
|

Thanks for the release zephyroth. |
Hey I hear Zephy forgot to put the medevil kext so you get a "waiting for root device" error. Where do I find it?
|
Still trying. Is there a known problem for SATA HDs in this release?
Quote:
|
Are any of you facing problems with the installation with SATA HDs??? What about the progress bar that freezes? Did any of you have you move the mouse cursor to see the progress bar moving again?
|
how do you enter in verbose mode? I just want to see if I get any "true" errors? Thanks.
|
to enter verbose mode during darwin boot press F8 and at "boot:" type -v then enter
|
-v or -f -v
|
HEY RAJ!!! IT WORKS, FINALLY, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. YOUR OPTIONS HELPED A LOT. KUDOS. I'M LOVIN' IT, LOL. :D keep up the great work Zephyroth.

thanks

Quicktime and iLife support still show up on my Update List. Why?
|
I can't get it to boot. "Verifying DMI pool data..." I set the partition as active. And the DVD gives me "still waiting for root device" error. I need that medevil kext .. HELP?
|
I've got all the .rar and extract the iso. Md5 is correct. Burned the dvd at the lowest speed.
I created the "unallocated" partition with diskpart in XP. Then booted from dvd, -v, ereased Leopard partition with disk utility to Mac OS Extended, choose custom installation with no "check" sign in kernel drivers language, x11... just the files for the plain OS. Installation went fine without stop. Rebooted correctly. Booting from HDD gives me "Chain booting error_" ("_" is blinking). CPU: AMD 3500+ SSE2 only Mobo: Asrock 939NF6G-VSTA (Bios 1.40) HDD: IDE I'm using Chain0 Method with XP, being the boot.ini correctly edited and XP the active partition. Leopard as active partition won't solve the problem. 10.5.1 for AMD worked with this system (Replaced the original kernel with a sse2 kernel). Maybe Darwin is missing. Now i'm gonna try booting the dvd with F8 and then mach_kernel rd=disk*s* -v -legacy -x |
Here are some of my screenshots. Working smoothly, just skeptic about the Updates that are available for download and translucent bar.

Just curious, I can't boot using GUID and the GUID EFI boot loader, I originally had a b0 error, so I made the partition active, rebooted with no b0 error, but instead it does nothing.
Does GUID not work or is it just my system? AMD Opteron 165 DFI nForce4 Ultra-D 2gb G.Skill nVidia 6800GS (Q/E, C/I in Tiger and Leo) 120gb SATA (Leo) 250GB SATA (XP) 250GB SATA (Files) 160GB IDE (Backup) Buffalo Wireless NIC (Broadcom) |

Encountered my first problem. Restarted my computer for the first time, and boot loader did not automatically show up as Zephyroth previously reported that it would. Instead, now it stay at the Boot from CD prompt, and cannot access the partition. Now what? Partition is not bootable. This is really upsetting. I thought Zephyroth and the beta team addressed these issues before this release was officially released. Whats up with this now? Hello? Please respond, thank you.

I tried to use the commands to make my partition bootable, but that does not work at all. My screen remains at Boot from CD. What am suppose to do now? Thanks.

About those with "Still waiting for root device" Please verify you installed the Drivers for your chipset, video, LAN, audio, via the "Customize" Button Left of the "Install" button. If you are still getting this error. List the Drivers you installed, what drive your installing to the configuration of this drive (master/slave and channel) Also list your motherboard, video, and LAN. If possible please provide any screen shots. Im hoping we can get this all worked out without needing a patch.
I would also like to know if anyone else is having problems with Nforce LAN freezing the whole os .. As I am. Also cant get Toast to run and QE/CI is working ;( ... |
Are you using MBR or GUID? I had a similar problem with GUID, MBR on the other hand is booting, but now I get half way through and I get a black window telling me to restart the computer....
|
MBR
Quote:
|
I installed only the MBR bootloader.
|
Hmmm, not sure what to tell you man, I'm sure someone has an idea though. Sorry.

its just that I hadn't encountered this kind of situation before. I am not spamming the forums. I am actually aware of what is happening to the server.

I agree Seren. He kept asking when will it be released....when, when, when. Now it's released and seemingly not 100% tested and he's complaining again. Have patience dude. I even read somewhere on this thread that even the beta testers didn't get this release to test. It should have been released to them to test and if all was working then published. Even Apple has to fix errors. That why we are at release 10.5.2. So shut up, be greatful and instead of complaining about the problems find a solution and post it. Other wise if you want no problem installs...go buy a Mac. Geesh.
I am still downloading but wanted to thank Zeph and the Beta testers for all their hard work. |
I am not another Megaargon for your information. I am not here to post such nonsense. I know who really did most of the work here. It was told in the beginning that all of these issues would be fixed. So why don't you calm down as well. Geesh. Everybody is having problems as well. I've faced worse with Linux. Patience...Patience...Patience
Just to let you know, I'm seeding as well, so be thankful for that as well...Geesh. Quote:

I installed with the MBR EFI boot loader with the new kernel, NVInject, the new video update, and my sound driver. Now when I boot up, I get half way through and a black HUD come over the screen and tells me to reboot, this will go on indeffinetly.

I have two 128mbs 6600GT in SLI mode. Do you happen to know what is the appropriate driver I check off in the customize option? Thank you.
Quote:

Stealthmode...boot in verbose mode and see if you get a panic. F8 when you see the darwin boot loader and type -v and hit enter. Be quick when you 1st see darwin.
|
Studied the .iso carefully. I looked at the description of the option in the customize area, and there are a couple of typos for the bootloader. Can this be a sign that there may be other actual errors that are residing that need to be fixed? Is this considered the final release? Just a question of thought. "proud to be a beta tester, :D" not a biggie really, great efforts zephyroth and the beta team made. As always, thank you. =)

Hey guys!
I downloaded the release yesterday and it installed like a charm.Thank you to those that made it available and to Zephyroth!! My only problem is that i cant get my sound to work. I have alc850 on a asus a8n-sli premium with the latest bios. System profiler says no device... I installed zephyroth 10.5.2 with ac'97 option once and a second time with azalia. None of them worked. What can i do to have sound? Thank you |
Everything fully working on AMD Athlon 64 3500+
thx Zeph ;) |
Thanks Zephyroth (another more)
Fully working in - AMD Athlon 3800+ X2 - MSI Neo4 Platinum (Nforce 4 Ultra) - GUID partition table EFI in 250 Maxtor HDD PATA - Forcedeth work ok to me (in integrated LAN) - Realtek ALC Audio work too (5.1 Channels :D) |

Hello all,
I try to install Leopard on this computer http://www.hp.com/workstations/pws/xw9300/xw9300.pdf. I cannot be more precise about specs ! With 10.5.2 DVD, in the Install process, I cannot find any of my Ultra Wide SCSI disks. When I go to "Disk utilities", I see nothing (No Ultra SCSI disks or DVD player). Do I need to inject some exotic kext files ? With the old 10.5.1 DVD, I get a freeze just after "dsmos: Starting..." Thanx you all, iero. |

First of all, I want to thank Zephyroth again,
what a great job! Most things work fine, except for my "Time Machine" and "Toast 8"; every time I start the former, "Finder" got restart, and "Toast" always crash can't start. But these situations not happen in Zephyroth Leopard 10.5.1 AMD, did anyone have the same problem? my Specs: Motherboard: Asus K8N-E, nForce 4 Ultra CPU: AMD Athlon 4200+ X2 Socket 939 Video/Graphics: Gigabyte Radeon X1300 MBR partition table EFI in Segate SATA HDD |

Unfortunately some that have succeeded dont even bother to post the solution... We are doomed! |
Does anyone know if 10.5.2 can be installed on a raid drive.
I see alot of nvdrivers installed Is there a raid driver to control nvraid of the sata plug? I see some people are installing it on sata drives. |
