Well,

 

after 4x re-installs of the systems I finally got it to work, and i`ll tell you how it was done.

 

Like JaS said, you should start booting with arguments

-v -f -s -x

 

And then enter this command at the prompt:

 

mount -uw /
mv /system/library/exrensions/r2d2.kext /system/library/extensions
rm -rf /system/library/extensions.mkext
rm -rf /system/library/extensions.kextcache

 

Note: if I didn`t delete these last 2 files, when i booted with -x argument, the computer simply shut down. lol

 

now, reboot with -x argument to get into visual safe mode

- put osx86 dvd into the disc and then install the GMA900 package.

- open disk utility, repair permissions

- reboot

 

here`s the diff part, cuz i won`t work yet..

 

reboot in safe mode again with -x argument

- put os86 dvd and install the radeon x1600 package

- open disk utility and repair permissions

- reboot

 

and now, everything worked fine!

 

thanks, please tell me your experiences with same hardware.
