Anyone had any luck installing OSx 10.5.6 ? i can get it installed but then it never boots cpu timeout or some kind of error like that ??

Well I installed it now it just goes into a Boot Loop, I see the Darwin thing then it just reboots ? Any ideas ?

 

What distro are you trying to install?

What bootflags are you using at boot?

 

Its leopard 10.5.6 is all I know, and I tried the -x and -F on boot but no joy, as soon as the apple appears it reboots ..

 

It installs just fine. Read and follow one of the ongoing installation threads:

I personally favor the iDeneb distribution as it's alot less steps....

 

Thanks, I used the 10.5.6 iDeneb distro and it installed fine, I even managed to get it set up as a dual boot by setting it up as a two partition system and doing a ghost image of my XP.

I found a DW 1390 wireless card laying around and installed that so now I have wireless working as well, Its actually pretty nice. I have no experience with Mac stuff but its pretty simple and it seems to be pretty fast as well.

 

Great! Now if they could only get the OSX sleep function to work it would make the installation complete.....

BTW: None of the installs has this working yet.
