Hi all!

So i finally got a version of Leopard to install on my Toshiba A75-S2762 notebook (Specs below). However, when I try to startup the unit, it goes into the Darwin boot loader, quickly flashes and then restarts. I've tried booting with "-x, -s, -f, cpus=1 and platform=x86 or platform=acpi" combinations to no avail. Is this quick rebooting loop a problem with the kernal version I installed or a possible kext issue? Any suggestions you guys have?

Specs:
Pentium 4: 3.0 GHZ
Ram: 1GB
VIDEO: ATI Radeon Mobility 9000
IDE Hard Drive and DVD-RW Drive
Running latest BIOS update from Toshiba

Distro of Leopard: XXX X86 universal 10.5.6

Thanks all!

Boot with -v bootflag, and let us know at what point it bins you out.

And what options did you choose when you installed? - it may be that you haven't selected the correct stuff when you installed.
