Dear Gurus, extremely need your help. I want to install iatkos v2.0i on my 2008 model dell desktop (intel). I have 2 hard drives. first one already have vista installed on it. the second hard drive i've partitioned in two. first partition with xp installed. now im planning to install iatkos v2.0i on 2hdd, 2nd partition.

My goal is to be able to multiboot for 3 OSes

I followed all instructions and boot up from iatkos dvd fine. format the target partition to extended mac journaled, select the right packages and install.

it was successfully installed. but im unable to complete the installation because it wont boot in when i select macosx (after reboot).

i used easybcd to setup triple booting. i can get to the darwin loader, but when i select the macos, nothing happen. im guessing this is booting issue. perhaps i misconfigured or missed some steps.

by the way, i've already done

#fdisk_-e_/dev/rdiskX
#flag_Y
#update
#write

with the correct disk and flag #.

eager to have macosx. any help u'd be greatly appreciated.

Hi Vailance, thanks for responding.

My processor, Q9450, 3gig ram, graphic card geforce 8800GT

for the 1st installation i've select

-iatkos v2.0i main system
-darwin bootloader

Stock files
-appleacpiplatform.kext
-kernel 9.2.0

additional patches
-nforce core (efi)

drivers
-vga - nvidia and openGL drivers
-system - none
-network - realtek8139

result the same.

second installation

-iatkos v2.0i main system
-darwin bootloader

Stock files
-appleacpiplatform.kext
-kernel 9.2.2

additional patches
-darwin x886 for MBR (Non-EFI)
-nforce core (non-efi)

drivers
-vga - nvidia and openGL drivers
-system - none
-network - realtek8139

result still the same.

i can get to the darwin loader (as attached). but when i select Macosleopard, nothing happen. even with any boot option, -v -s -x, nothing.

Media is XP partition. i can boot no problem.


any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
