awitten Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Has anyone attempted to install OS X on any of the Vizio PCs? When i start it boots up the USB and after i select install OS X ML the screen goes black and just sits. When i force through chamelion it starts and sits at "waiting for root device". Any ideas? i7-3610Qm CPU is what the machine is running w/ 8GB RAM. Hope was to dual boot on a single partitioned HDD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
