I have the Asus M32A32-MVP Deluxe Motherboard & Im trying to find out if this motherboard is compatible with leopard. I have this motherboard and the AMD Phenom 9600 Black Edition Processor.

I have been researching for weeks trying to find out which installation method works best with this setup. I've heard about Zephyroth & its compatibility with AMD and a few other versions of leopard (kalyway, leo4all, etc) but im not sure which one works the best with this motherboard.

Any HELP!! will be greatly appreciated!

 

(Just to let you know Im also using all sata drives (dvd, hd's, etc)...

I have the same motherboard, a Phenom 9500, 6GB RAM, 8800GT, 2x750G + a 40G PATA drive. I added the old PATA drive specifically to test Leopard - I had previously read about SATA problems.

After installing a from a 10.5.1 dvd I've managed to get to the Welcome screen - lan, wifi, graphics etc. still not working. Installing and booting seems to take forever on my machine, comparing to windows and linux.

So you're not the only one with this board trying to install Leopard.

Everything except wifi seems to work for my particular configuration. I switched to LawlessPPC 10.5.4 AMD&EFI (or something like that). To get the ethernet to work I modified /System/Library/Extensions/IONetworking.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleYukon2.kext/Info.plist

and replaced "8053" with "8056" and "4362" with "4364". Then the network interface must be enabled after reboot.

I did not select drivers for nvidia during install, instead I followed these instructions:

Now Quartz Extreme works with my 8800GT 512MB.
