Hi,

 

I have been trying to install Leopard onto my new Vostro 1300 now for a few days now.

 

I have a few different distros:

- Kalyway 10.5.2

- iDeneb 10.5.5 & 10.5.4

- JaS 10.5.4 Client/Server

 

Kalyway seems to be the only one I can get to boot/install. This is if I do NOT select the Vanilla kernal. I can update Kalyway to 10.5.3 using the JaS combo update, however when I try to update to 10.5.4/10.5.5 I get a continuous reboot when you try to boot into leopard.

 

In all other distros I can install Leopard using each of the different kernals however when I boot, the computer just restarts and continues to loop just like above.

 

I'm pretty sure this is something todo witht eh kernal version.

 

When I install Kalyway 10.5.2 the Kernal is 9.1.0 ToH.

 

Anyone got any idea what's going wrong? The spec of the computer is as follows:

Another quick question; how do I find out the chipset for my laptop? On all the distros I do not select any chipset as I do not know what it is. Do I need to?

 

Many thanks :rolleyes:
