Installing 10.1 from Mac OS X does not work. It reboots from the CD, but the CD doesn't have the drivers you need, so you don't get very far. But using XPostFacto to set up the install should work. You say that you get "nothing"--do you mean you get a blank screen when XPostFacto reboots the machine? What exactly do you get? |

I think the kernal panic problem is fixed with xpf 2.2.1 but now I try to install 10.1 from os x using the CD and it freezes on the gray apple. I all so tryed to use xpf from os 9 to restart from the upgrade CD and install to os X and nothing ??????? |

It sounds like you are able to boot into the Mac OS X Installer and successfully complete the install, but then get a kernel panic when it restarts? That was normal for clean installations before XPostFacto 2.2, but it should have been fixed then. And I take it that if you try to start up from your Mac OS X Installation now, you get the kernel panic again? What you will probably need to do is write down the exact text of the kernel panic (or take a picture, if you have a digital camera). Then I may be able to figure out what the problem is. I will also need to know exactly which version of Mac OS X you are trying to install. |
