Last phrase in the cmd windows is "now starting client"...then the error message (its german): "ppc... isnt running anymore and was closed due to problems."

That's not good.

How about trying first the official 0.4.0 release of PearPC:

http://pearpc.sourceforge.net/downloads.html

You can generate a config file online:

The redscorp version you are using might be causing problems?

Hi there & thx for the very fast answer !

I did as you said and generated a new CFG with the online tool and use the PPC.EXE (standard), selecting (1) CDROM an starting the installation, now I am getting this:


After a view sec. it switches to that:


I waited 20 Min, but nothing heppend, no CPU or HD use...
The CMD stays as posted...

Can you help !?

Thank you & Regards

I am using now the Tiger 10.4. with 2.63GB (2.832.236.544 Bytes) as DVD and not the CD Version as I used before... and the 6 GB Image on HD ("macosx_6gb.img").

Its says (in german): 1. Choose language, 2. choose Target volume, 3. Installation of major parts, 4. Computer rstart in 17. sec.



My final CFG looks like that:

More Infos about my installation progress:
am now happily installing mac os x 10.4. finally it worked! gonna be completed in about an hour or so.

The things I did to make it work:

1. DL and used the PearPC CMD-Pack (not the Pear Control Panel)
2. DL the 6gb bootdisk image
3. DL (Rapidshare) the DVD ISO MAC OS X 10.4 Tiger
4. Generated a Config file with http://guillaumejamet.eu/index?rub=rubr ... pc_cfg.php
5. didnt used the "-v" " on prom_env_machargs" (prom_env_machargs = "")
6. Used the PPC.EXE [Config.CFG]
7. I installed in german (cos my english sux...)
8. During Installation I got a warning in CMD-Window "[IO/CUDA]
9. MAC OS finished installation and says "need to reboot"
10. Start the MAC OS via PPC.EXE [Config.CFG] -> Select HD (insted of CDROM)


My System Config:


OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit (+ all Updates 07. Dec.)
MB: Abit IP35 Pro (LGA 775 Mainboard, P35 chipset)
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E6850 @ 3.85GHz (Overclocked)

Installation procedure:
Sometimes I couldnt use the Keyboard: Pressing the <ALT> Key in the MAC-PEAR Window solved this.

1. Welcome, 2. Have you ever used a MAC, 3. Choose Keyboard, 4. Chosse connection



1. Some more questions, 2. create loacal user profile, 3. chosse timezone, 4. date and time setting


1. Internet connection type, 2. Enter Apple ID, 3. Registration, 4. Some Questions, 5. Please register



THE RESULT:


Thx a lot for the help so far !!!

Hey, that's a pretty screenshot complilation. Can I steal that for use in the site wiki?

Meanwhile, now that you know the issue was with your install media, you can probably go back and use the redscorp build, which might be a bit faster.
