installation hangs at switched at clock source tsc

#1 Post by rbmanian75 »

Hi,
I am trying to install buster 10.2 in iMacPro and live cd does not boot and hangs at saying
Switched at clock source at tsc. I have waited almost 30 min and it just stays there.

Any help to get it boot would be grateful

Thanks.

I had the same issue in Slackware but it was a kernel panic. I noticed it happened at the point you mentioned, or extremely near to it.

If I were you I would look at this:

Looks like it may be to do with hardware incompatibilities. Fortunately there are some workarounds there which should hopefully help you.
