Hi guys, , first post , really been on the look out for installing OSX on my Rig, for a long time, thing is i have gone to great lengths to get to this point (the internet in country sucks, i was inaussie land when i had the privilee to get the Zephy 10.5.2 rev.1 unfortunately i wasn't there when rev.2 was launched, also bought me an IDE 2.5-3.5 IDE adaptor so my Toshiba 4200 RpM 80GB HDD can boot MAC OSX..i was under the assumption it was a requirement)

 

so after all of this, and having burnt...successfully zephyroth's 10.5.2 rev 1 DVD, installation was a breeze..... BUT....

 

i get a boot e0 error

 

i have tried

 

-s (put's me into a text based safe mode???) there i type.....

cd /usr/standalone/i386 (but apparently this command is not recog

 

this drive is given exclusive access (other HDD are disabled in bios when installing the OSX)

 

i am a UBER NOOB in terms of anything outside of the win32 realm, so please be patient...i HAVE read most of the posts, and from what little i could understand, this is what i had done

 

my mobo GPU and other equipment is on the HCL list on wiki

 

my RIG consists of an AMD 64 3800+X2 on stock, 2GB of DDR400 rams, 3x7500RPM SATA2 HDD (seagate,WD and samsung, 1.3TB total) but the one for MACOSX EXCLUSIVELY is the toshiba, 4200RPM, 2.5" adapted to a 3.5PATA IDE cable, and 2 IDE opticals.

 

 

the drivers i had selected in customising the installation were

 

Kernel SSE3 9.2.0

Additional Fonts (Optional)

Language Translations (Optional)

EFI in MBR v.8

AC 97' drivers (ALC 850)

NForce 2/3/4/5 (A8N Sli premium 1302)

NVkext, and drivers for 512MB nvidia (8800GT XFX alpha dog)

 

 

please please please, i do not have an option of redownloading the rev.2 of Zephy's MACoSX cuz at a std 5-6KB on torrents.....it will be too long and too late for me to apply MACOSx, so if there is any method or methodS do let me know

¿b0 error?.Maybe your partition is not active.Try this:

 

Boot from the DVD with the flag -s.Now type

 

sudo -s
fdisk -e /dev/rdiskX (X is the number of your HDD)
f Y (Y is the Leopard partition)
w (yes)
q 
reboot
