EDIT

Now going to build a hackintosh




Hi

I have a copy of ideneb os x and leo4all os x v3 final and im having difficulties trying to install them.

With leo4all V3 i cannot get the image to boot from the cd as the computer keeps resetting its self.Do you know amy reason why?

And with ideneb i can install it but it hangs on the apple logo after it has been installed. Do you know what settings i am requiered to select for my system? Your help would be much appreciated.

My system Specs are

Asrosk Mother Board wolfdale 1333 D-667

Intel Pentium D 925 Processor Socket 775

DDR2 RAM 4gb running around 300Mhz according to CPU-Z

Chipset intel i945G/GZ

ATI Radeon 2400 PRO

Do you need any more information???

This method is full of hurt, although if you really want OSX86 or insanely mac should be top prioritty on your googleing

Most times the only fully sucssseful ones are on build from the ground up hackintoshes, but netbooks are quite well supported.

I would highly recommend a core 2 duo/ core 2 quad. I have done it in the past and it works fine on my setup but not the ethernet. But thats due to my motherboard

I have just finished building a hackintosh and i have installed OSX the install was fine and i am posting this message from it but i can only get access to OSX if the cd is inserted into my drive.

If i remove the cd and try to boot i get boot) error message even when i change the boots between cd drive and hdd

I'm looking at doing this, and hopefully on to my current system. Is there any way you can install iDeneb on to a partition on your HDD without having to reformat the entire thing?

@garlic_bread What specification have you built your system to?
