I have mac installed on it but only using a flat image from version 10.5.1 osx86 but i cant get my ide dvd-rom working . at this moment im trying to install this new version of kalyway but i gives me the following error " ApleVIAATA VIAATA Unknown... and after it "still waiting for root device" , i believe this happens because of the marvell 88se61xx ( in my case is 88se6102) ide controller , do i have to install a sata dvd drive? i really want to boot in to the installation os kalyway 10.5.2 . can anybody help me please?

yes ,the best solution is a sata dvd drive and it should work nicely.

that is what i was thinking of!! thankx for the confirmation!!! i have to dig in my wallet to find some change lololool

with a SATA DVD Drive, set the JMicron controller to AHCI.

i have asus L1N64-WS w/ sata dvd and i have the same problem also "stil waiting for root device" what should i do?

xris you have to change your sata controller to ahci , try to disable any floppy drives , put the suspend mode in S3 disable the intel step function on cpu enable cpu disable bit and enable acpi support that worked for me with the flat image

did everything else and it almost worked but cant change the sata controller to ahci, there is no such option in the bios. and i know that is the problem.

Your motherboard BIOS does have the change SATA controller to AHCI.

You might need to change the SATA port.

i made it!! i have kalyway 10.5.2 installed on my hackintosh , i've pulled out my credit card and bought myself a sata dvd writer. i've just disabled the marvell ide controller and voilá!!

I have the same problem with Leo4All 10.5.2 I changed my IDE DVD with an USB DVD Reader, and I can't get it to work

Leo4all v3 suports the ide controllers its the only one so far.
and i tryed them all. kal, iat ect

thank you candykane, but I tries all version except Kalyway
