I've got Leo running on this configuration:

 

Gigabyte GA-73PVM-S2H NForce 630i

Intel Pentium Dual Core 2180 2GHz

2GB DDR2 SDRAM

NVidia GeForce 8500 GT 256MB with NVInject

Booting from external USB HDD

Kalyway 10.5.2 with nforcekernel

 

This setup has some issues. The screen goes blue when changing resolutions but you can work around that using Cmd-Opt-Eject.

 

More seriously, the thing hangs when using the onboard LAN. The link comes up at 1000M but soon afterwards the system will SPOD and that's your lot until you reboot.

 

I'm using this driver for the LAN:

0.62.3n beta_osx nForceLAN_0.62.3.kext.zip

 

More worryingly I get spontaneous reboots when trying to run the lspci part of OSX86Tool to gather hardware information.

 

I suspect the motherboard as I think all the other components are fine. Or it could be that I'm booted from USB. It'll be a few more days before I can try it on the SATA ports.

 

What's going on with lspci? Has anyone had stability issues with the NForce 630i chipset - some folks on here seem to be using it but not widely.
