Hi to all!

I have installed succesfuly 10.5.2 after injecting modded AppleVIAATA.kext into the dvd (by the method described in leo wiki)
Also installed AppleVIAATA.kext succesfuly in wmware after initial phase so now it can boot to post install.

BUT, and here is the problem:
After the welcome animation, the setup goes ok until i reach the "Transfer my information" screen. When i select the last option, "no transfer" the setup stalls then restarts from the beginning-> Welcome, etc.

Could this be a problem because of hdiutil ? I'm positive I have not altered other things in the dvd structure.

Tried to boot with -f -x but it's the same.

Now i'm reinstalling from the same dvd, excluding language translations (i can't see how this may affect instalation but...)

Will post the results. Meanwhile, do you have any explanation for this?

Thanks.

After reinstalation is the same. I will try to switch to the original dvd after initial boot-up.

Thank you eddie11c. I didn't notice that page of the wiki. It worked.
