I completely installed OSx86 using iPC 10.5.6 (with ppf 1, 2 and 3 applied). After restarting I get this screen:



Booting with -v I get this:



I've read that the problem is that OSx isn't finding my hard dive (80gb Seagate IDE).

I have also read that I need to enable AHCI in my bios, but I have looked through my bios and it does not have that option. It is a 5 or 6 year old Compaq Evo D51C - p4 2.4ghz, 512mb ddr 266. As for the mobo, I am not sure what make or model it is, but it uses the Intel 845G chipset, has built-in AC ‘97 Stereo Codec, and has built-in Intel extreme graphics.

I have the one hard drive as master, and a dvdrw as slave on the only used IDE channel.

Any suggestions? If more info is needed from me then I will get it promptly. Thank you.

Did you used a patched kernel like voodoo or speedstep?

Gah, I thought I covered everything, but I forgot about Kernel Angus. This install was with the Voodoo kernel. My first install I tried the vanilla kernel, but that resulted in constant reboots at "Starting xxxxx/xxx" --- sorry I don't remember the text.

Long story short, the issues described above are after the install using the Voodoo kernel.

Please let me know if I need to supply any more info, and thank you so much.

FIXED (kind of)

After reinstalling and reinstalling and reinstalling, I finally stumbled onto the correct (or at least less wrong) chipset. I now can boot into osx, and it's really pretty. I have absolutely no experience with osx so it's a fun new world.

After booting in, a few minutes pass then I get a screen full of text and errors, but that is a new problem so I'll open a new post about that.

Thanks for the help all!

I too am having this problem i was wondering could you please let me know what you used (iAtkos, Kalyway, or which did you use and with what settings if you remember im stuck as well.

Would you please post or write me what chipset you finally used? Thanks!
