2 Minute Hang
When the installation gets to 2 minutes remaining, it will probably hang. Ensure that the disks have mostly stopped spinning and then force shutdown the box. Then follow these instructions:
- Eject the YZ CD so that the box will boot from the hard drive
- Start the box, and at the boot screen, type -s -v -x
- Once the box starts up, you'll be at a bash prompt. Type /sbin/fsck -fy
- Once that finished, type /sbin/mount -uw /
- CD to /.OSInstallSandboxPath/Scripts
- CD to Hackintosh.Zone.Post-Script*
- Type ./postinstall and wait for the script to complete
- Type exit to complete the installation
