Let me google that for you

HELP please!

I installed the Kalyway 10.5.2 ISO on my Toshiba Satellite laptop (Intel). All went great, but then when it was done, it restarted and now it says

HFS+ error

What did I do wrong? Can I fix it? It even overwrote my bootloader thing, because in order to get back to Vista, I had to run GParted and make the boot flag on my vista partition :(

Did you leave the disk in the laptop when you restarted after installation ?

Also did you get any options prior to the HFS+ error ?

Strange. I installed iAktos OSX 10.5 with the 9.5.0 voodoo kernel. It just freezes here upon boot and I'm not sure why. I'm suspecting it may be the ACPI driver since it caused a problem in the past but there doesn't seem to be an indication of it here.

There's a lot of ACPI references on that screen, that might be your indicator...

yeah the partition.

make partition.
burn iso.
boot iso

No, the partition is made while booting from the iso (at least it was like that when I installed). And installing Windows is extremely easy compared to this. The errors you can get are countless.

OSx86 really is not that hard to install as long as you have computer knowledge. But, many people that do try to install it (including some people in this thread) simply do not know enough about computers to make it work.

Im going to install hackintosh today :) if its any good i will probably install it over vista as it sucks. Does Mac have a good game range?
Click to expand...

The operating system is OS X, not Mac. Vista really does not suck, and I can guarantee it will be more stable and reliable than your OSx86 install. As to games.. well, some games are cross platform, and others are not. Windows does have more in quantity, though. Shouldn't this all be stuff you've researched before you attempted to install anything other than Windows?

I've been trying to install OSX on my laptop but at some random point during the installation the computer will freeze and the dvd drive makes a high pitched squeaky noise.
