im using iboot to boot retail dvd of Snow Leopard and it hangs at Grey apple screen with no movement.

I have set up everything according to the default guides for SL and they wont work.

i have tried all the boot flags with all the combos.

Whenever i use verbose it says ddst's or whatever dont load and it makes up a custom one or something. Everything else is fine bu then it says:

starting up darwin x86 then it goes black. If i dont use verbose it hangs at apple logo without movement at all. Using a gpu is not an option since the one i have is 6950....

I just wanna know what osx version i should use for my specs. i thought SL was the end all choice but it looks like once again the pirate route is the easiest/foolproof way since no one has a mac in my friend circle and my fam are total computer noobs

:crazy:OMGLOLWTFBBQ!!!

I was using the wrong iBoot... i was using v3 default when i should have been using the haswell.. DOH!:banghead:

No errors so far just iboot, insert retail disc and it worked without bootflags:headbang::thumbup:
