Cinos Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Hello guys, I have a Toshiba NB500-100 and I couldn't manage to install ANY of the OS X Versions I tried with different USB-Sticks, and had problems since the beginning, - Snow Leopard did not boot, no chance to type anything into the BIOS. - On Mountain Lion and Mavericks: Darwin/x86 boot v5.0.132: Chameleon svn2266 : My hack 3.3 Build Date 2013-10-27 12:29:10 1013 Memory VESA v3.0 7MB (Intel®PineView Graphics Chip Accelerated VGA BIOS) Press any key to startup options If I don't press any key, the Apple logo shows and stays like that. If I press a key and use either "-v" or "-x", a large log gets displayed too fast for me to keep up, and suddenly the screen turns black. Nothing more happens. Any help please? Thanks in advance.

Administrators Hervé Posted January 10, 2014 Administrators Share Posted January 10, 2014 Can you not do an lspci -nn command under your Ubuntu live disk? That would be so much simpler and clearer as this is still not ideal... Anyway, 1st thing 1st: you have an Atom kernel so you can only boot with an Atom-specific patched kernel... Mach kernel won't do. Secondly, I think this Tosh' has GMA 3150 integrated graphics, which is totally unsupported by Mac OS X. Should this graphics chip be confirmed, I'm afraid you can forget about turning this into a Hackintosh as it would never run properly. Sorry...
