Boot-132 on ASUS P5K-E/WiFi-AP Motherboard

[XP1]

Boot-132 CD won't Boot Mac OS X Retail DVD

 

I first put the Boot-132 CD into the drive. After the loader is done loading, I swap the disc to the Mac Retail DVD.

I type in "-v" and enter, and then I get two choices: 80 and 81.

If I select either 80 or 81, the menu just returns to the beginning "boot:" prompt.

There is no selection for the Mac Retail DVD.

 

Am I doing something wrong?

 

Downloaded and burned to disc:

EDIT:

Do I feel stupid!

 

I was typing "80" and "81" trying to get the bootloader to boot the retail DVD, but I never noticed the default "ef" value that actually boots the DVD.

 

At first, I had the BIOS mode setting at AHCI and got a whole bunch of these:

 

EBIOS read error: Error 0x02
Block 970 Sectors 64

EBIOS read error: Error 0x02
Block 970 Sectors 64

EBIOS read error: Error 0x02
Block 970 Sectors 64

...

I then set the setting back to IDE, and now, the Leopard installer is able to boot!

 

Thanks, EnCoDeD.
