I installed the Dell EFI 1.2a5 software package, and basically this guide: How to Install Mac OS X: DellEFI Method. I got to the point of after installing/running dell efi, and the 10.5.7 combo update. Restarted, and did the whole -x for safemode. But, all i get is a Apple, with the spinning circle. Been like this for a good 20 minutes now. I used a retail 10.5 disc that i had laying around. Not quite sure what to do. I followed the above instructions to the T, sooo... any suggestions? Any help? I don't really want to install from scratch again. Thanks! you know what, i was installing 10.5, and further reading has discovered that 10.5 plus efi = trouble. so i found a 10.5.6 dmg i could use. trying that now. yeah, did 10.5.6, and everything went fine this time. ppl can close this if they want. It's call fixed now. ^_^ |
