I think you have the same problem as many others.

Installing leopard does NOT make the partition active like installing tiger did.

You must make the partition active before installation.

 

Ok, so how do I do this.

After you boot the install DVD, open disk utility and erase (just a quick erase will do the trick) the partition you want to install leopard onto. This sets that partition active!

Remember not the whole HD just the partition.

 

Then close DU and go ahead with the install.

good luck:)

Press F8 and boot with options -v -s -x and it should boot.

I've burned the DVD i put it in the drive to make the boot and i receive the message, my installation doesn't start at all.

 

I tried -v -s -x option but it still give me the same plist not found message.
