I'm trying to install iAtkos 5i on my machine. I've tried different configurations... all of them install successfully but none will boot. Some of the configurations tell me to restart my machine as soon as I attempt to boot... others will just freeze on the gray booting screen.

Should I use a different distribution?

Specs:
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.0
2 GB ram
200 GB HD
128 MB Geforce Go 7400
Motherboard: B99860441 MBX-147

Any suggestions?

How did you customize your installation?

I tried two different kernals (not the chameleon), the geforce go drivers, I tried both removing and not removing the power management file (since I read that may cause a problem), and I installed ACPI (I think that was what it was called).

Thanks for the fast response

Hmm lets try something like this XDXD

iAtkos V5i Main System
Bootloader:
- PC Efi v9
X86 Patches:
- Decrypters:
-- AppleDecrypt
- SMBIOS Drivers:
-- Apple SMBIOS Enablers:
--- SMBIOS-EFI
- Disabler.kext
- OHR
- ACPI thingy
- Remove Thermal Kexts
Drivers:
- VGA
-- NVkush
System:
- SATA/IDE:

Dont select any kernel, cuz you dont need patched kernel good luck hope this help...

Thanks a lot I'll post the results.

I used the customization options you told me to use. I'm getting the restart computer error on boot.

Anything else I should try?

try this when darwin appear:

cpus=1 -v

If you get any error or it get stuck please post back or take a photo, dont need to be damn big

You can also try in force mode (-f) or safe mode (-x)

Hi
I am using Sony Vio 2GB RAM, 160GB HDD, Core 2 Duo Laptop. My laptop currently having Windows XP (It came up with Vista, but later on i changed it to XP).
I downloaded lATKOS_5i & lATKOS_7i . But its always restring my machine after few minutes. no further progress.

I tried your suggestion -v cpus=1 and -f too, but it does the same thing.

Do i need to do anything else before inserting the DVD into system

I am attaching the image of the error
