lol yes somewhat successfully…it was booting like every third time.

admittedly i did not read that there were these issues. i spent the last weeks worth of free time trying to revive my mavericks tower and when i got sick of dickin around w it i just went to town on my laptop. i didn't read anything in the instal guide that mentions the graphics issue. figures that since it was soooo dang easy it wouldn't work w this laptop lol. well thanks for your time looks like back to the drawing board w my desktop.

so i managed to get my e6410 to boot….sometimes. mine is intel. it does boot in safe mode. it will hang at the following point:

yeah it happens no matter what key i try to use for "-" …. interestingly enough i just came home and it worked.

so last night i installed mavericks on my e6410 / intel graphics machine. all was smooth sailing until it booted for the first time. i got it registered key board layout all that. got to the home screen and then it went black. i tried to reboot and i get a frozen dial under apple logo. when i try to boot into verbose or safe mode or use any flags for that matter it refuses them. instead of a "-" showing up it gets inputed as "/". so if i input "-v" it says " can't find /v". help?
