I have burnt 10 Mac Os X Dvd's Tried everyhting to get them to work. And finally one did, without any error.
Now my problem is, I am so freaking freaking happy that I just installed Snow Leopard on my Computer, but when it's done installing it just doesn't boots!!!!?!?!!??! I am so pissed because of that I've been working on it for 2 days night and day!
Does anyone has an idea on how to get it booted, I used EasyBCD but it just restarts immediately. or something in that terms(have to check later)

I really don't get it! It installs perfectly!

last and only message on the screen is:
efi_inject_get_devprop_string NULL trying stringdata

I could not read the picture very well but something like that^
I would really appreciate your help.
the fact is that the live cd(not exactly live cd) part works fine I can acces everything while installing the installing is succesfully but the booting sucks!

Intel Chipset afaik, I install Intel Chipset drivers when I... install my drivers xD.

Okay this is DAMN strange, when I boot from the dual layer, I also see that message (last message) where I am talking about in the post above but then it works! 0.o!

what you want is a Boot123 image made for your motherboard

what apple do to stop mac from running on non-apple hardware is they include a check on boot to see if the hardware is apple-hardware or not.
boot123 skips the check ;)

What if.... I already have Snow Leopard already installed I only need the fake boot thing? I am familiar with it I used it with Leopard(not snow) but it didn't work. It said I didn't had the right Leopard Iso while I bought a retail one ^^.

Ow and read your pms.

Also I am able to acces the mac terminal... so tell me.... when I need to add a kext by terminal to crack it.
The point is I know you need to avoid that boot check but I know there are other ways than by a bootcd.
What Kext Would that be?

I've got the option to install Chameleon and PC_Efi and AsereBLN installer.
Is PC_efi the crack? Chameleon and Asere are Bootloaders, right?

Got Win7 Installed by the way.
