Built a USB stick with myhack rc4.1 (yesterday), with 10.6 DVD retail image... 10.6.3 -Lenovo Thinkstation D20, Phoenix Bios. -onboard sound card, Intel 82801JI -onboard ethernet, Broadcom Net BCM5755 -Xeon E5620, 2.4ghz -NVidia G96 Quadro FX580 rev a1 -OS X Source Media 10.6.3 Retail DVD -cant capture the logs guys, i wish i could, the system reboots Issue: After boot, I see an option to specify myhack boot parameters. I've tried many, including -v -x arch=i386 cpus=6 busratio=20 GraphicsEnabler=yes, etc... The lines start scrolling, then the machine restarts Also, I do not see a graphical myhack, but a text one.

Conti Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Installer finished... not able to boot from HD , comp reboots You'll need to reproduce the steps you used to get the installer booting to the hdd... If you are running legacy_kernel to boot your system, that kernel needs to be on the partition you are booting too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
