hi all, im attempting to install JaS 10.5.2 intel sse2 sse3 on my hp a6120n, (specs) -- E4400 Core2Duo processor 2Ghz/800Mhz FSB.

-- 3.5Gb 667 PC-5300 RAM. (kinda wierd, i know)

-- 945G/ICH7-DH controller.

-- Nvidia 9600gt (512Mb) in 16x PCI-E slot. (basic display works)

-- ALC888S onboard audio controller.

-- attempting to install on 500 GB sata II on sata port 3

-- SATA controller mode is AHCI.

-- Onboard GMA950 is diabled in the BIOS.

-- Onboard Intel 82562V NIC

 

almost everytime i boot, i get ->

>localhost kextd[47]: can't add repository (not a directory)

>resetting IO catalogue.

>localhost kextd[47]: root filesystem is read-only; skipping kernel link data generation

>localhost directoryservice[52]: launched version 5.0 (v514)

>localhost diskarbitrationd[44]:unable to mount /dev/disk0s1 (status code 0x0000047).

>localhost diskarbitrationd[44]:unable to mount /dev/disk0s3

(status code 0x0000047).

>localhost diskarbitrationd[44]:unable to mount /dev/disk3s1

(status code 0x0000047). (this, i am sure, is my external HDD)

 

then it freezes in place like every time.

Does anyone have any idea what i can do to get this install started? i have tried many of the switches (-v, -legacy, -f) to no avail.

 

thanks in advance

p.s. i have the retail dvd 10.5.4 but i didnt know i needed mac os to get it patched.
