Hi, All.
Sorry, I couldn't find a Leopard support, so I posted here, hoping that answers will be close enough.
Trying to build my first hackintosh, and as stated, on boot of the OS X Leopard installer, I hit the following error:
Booting with -s -v doesn't help. I get to the single user BASH shell, type exit as instructed to boot the system, and hit another hang. I assume it is the same error in the background.
Booting without -v simply shows the apple logo and the spinning loading circle indefinitely.
I am booting on an IBM X41 tablet computer (Screen is dead, however. I have to use VGA.) I am using Chameleon 2.1 r2069, and my boot disk is a USB which was 'restored' on a MacOS Sierra computer to contain the OS X Leopard install DVD, as well as Chameleon.
Originally, I attempted with iBoot Legacy, however hit the following:
I had to delete all graphics kexts to get this far, and I have to use a USB keyboard, because the built in one doesn't work past chameleon (I.e. for single user mode).
As far as I'm aware, the BIOS is set up correctly, and the HDD is completely empty. The USB I'm booting with is on an MBR partition scheme, as GUID wouldn't work.
I also tried the Voodoo patched Kernel. No joy.
Finally, I have also attempted the install with OS X Tiger (same method for boot disk). That OS only manages to get as far as Darwin, before crashing.
Specs aren't pretty, but should be able to run Tiger and / or Leopard just fine:
Hopefully someone can help with my ancient OS install :/
Haven't been able to find anything on any other forums, on any other website, so my hopes aren't high.
Thanks in advance.
