Thanks,

I have a ibm thinkcentre a50p 8193 and I am trying to get Layne OSX86 ideneb to install on it. The installation actually goes fine, but when it reboots I get a kernel panic... I am wondering what I am supposed to do that I am not doing... Did you have any luck with your A55? I wonder if the specs are the same as my a50p?
