Hey Guys !!! Finally Got Leopard Running On My Abit IP35 PRO !!!!

i won't be using MAC to online right now without the help of ALL EXPERTS in insanlymac.com !!!!

i used over 20 times to install Leo... bumped here & there looking for solutions in all my installation problems. But now, i Finally Got It !!!

1. Bios setting put EIST to Enable, Enable Jmicron & Set to IDE mode (since im using my IDE hard-drive for Leo installation )
2. Put in KALYWAY 10.5.1 DVD & Boot, Go into Harddisk Utility & formatted my drive into OSX Journaled - MBR (2 partition - one for Leo, one for Time Machine)
3. Before installation, choose CUSTOMIZE (Checked Vanilla + ACPI patches & EFI boot loader with MBR)
4. Hit install button & Pray !
5. After 25 min of waiting, i managed to boot into LEO without B0 error or HFS+ partition errors !!! (1st boot is slow!!! )
6. When the Welcome Video pops up, i know I'm in ! (no sound at this moment yet!)
7. After that, install Kalyway 10.5.2 update ! reboot again !
8. 2nd Reboot is even SLOWER !!!! took 5-8 minute to load !!! (i felt like quitting)
9. Forget about the slow startup, i install the AppleHDA patcher 1.20 + ALC888.txt for my sound !!!
10. For graphic, i use Nvinstaller 0.33 & select ONLY the 512mb check box (i have 8800GTS (G92) 512mb card)
11. Reboot again & found that startup is back to NORMAL !!! ( i guess it was the graphic card or sound that hog my booting)
12. installed my modem & go online to check for Apple Software Updates !!! ( i updated my SAFARI & ITUNES !!!)

wonderful LEOPARD !!! Thanks guys !!!

Here's some of mine

Would it make a difference if you had sleep kernel 9.1 vs vanilla kernel installed to get through the 10.5.2 update? Last time i did it it did the whole load thing with the grey apple on white background, but then my computer doesn't restart and the monitor doesn't find a signal.

i always failed with vanilla kernel but not with sleep kernel.

Now that I think about it, I think my video was just dead and the update did install properly. I used the kalyway 10.5.2 update. Are there more steps then just running the update?

[GeekofComputers]

Good for you. Sadly mine didn't work well and had to use iATKOS.

[BlackFire]

I ran the update again, and while the screen went black and had no signal, I left it alone, let it do its thing. Come to find out it INSTALLED FINE, and OS X likes to boot after an update with a dead screen. Thats one to add to the OSx86 10.5.2 Update manual.

i use Kalyways 10.5.2 update package (3xxmb i think) + Kalyways 10.5.2 and everything ran fine !!!

Make sure you install the right nv driver accordingly (refer the HCL)

I tried iATKOSv1.0R2 and it was a waste of time !!! always stuck with the reboot LOOP !

yes ! you are right, 1st boot after update is always DEAD SCREEN !!!
Congrates Blackfire !

Congratulations, we are happy with your success too

I had some problems initially, but that was with vanilla kernel. Once I installed without selecting any drivers or kernel it worked.

i also heard of the vanilla kernel which is very "PICKY & TRICKY" towards some motherboards
