for his install guide. I used majority of it. So back to complaining. The problems I am having and I hope to get help with is that my build will not boot Leopard without the Kalyway disc in the drive [otherwise I get a blinking cursor]. Secondly, my DVD Drive will no longer be detected after several hours into boot so it requires a reboot [referring to first complaint]. Thirdly, Airport will disconnect from time to time but I should stop being greedy and connect the antenna [;. Finally, I would love to see support for a Creative SB X-Fi 9050 so that I can fully use the beast for what its worth. I dont want to upgrade to 10.5.2 because I'm recovering from the damage done [LAN, Wireless, Bluetooth, etc]. More than anything If I can get some assistance with my boot issues I would greatly appreciate it. I've tried several Terminal boot fixes and boot packages and not one has worked. Please someone.

 

Thank you all for working on this project and I only hope to see it succeed more.

 

...I forgot to mention that it was installed using Vanilla as MBR partition [rdisk0s1]. Thank you again.
