This is what I found when I ran the log according to Bob's instructions:

=======================

 

It locked up after that last line.

 

(I set up the Bios exactly as the sugested url for the D630)

 

Any ideas?  I am searching the net to see how to resolve the instantiation of the installer

I'll definately do that,   I have to wait until Monday what the installing machine is available again (friends computer).

 

How can I verify that the usb installer is good?   Last time i followed the instructions step by step from the myhack site.

 

Thank you guys again.

Just so that you know, an alternative to you as last resort if you're not getting anywhere: Nawcom BootCD + temp SL installation. I do insist on 1) "alternative" and 2) "last resort" because it probably can/will appear as a complicated route. True, but it's guaranteed to get you there. The added trouble of course is that it requires you to have either a retail SL DVD or a restored image of retail SL on a USB stick, since Nawcom ModtCD is for Snow Leopard.

 

You'll find all the necessary details with a little search on the forum (I've detailed it several times). You would not be wrong to think of it as a complicated way to just build a myHack installer, but it's one guaranteed to get you there with a legit retail SL/L/ML copy if using a real Mac or a VM gets you nowhere.
