Chris Parker Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I have a DG31PR mobo, with a Q6600 2.4Ghz quad core, 2GB mem, XFX 512MB 8600GT, SATA 500Gb. I have tried a bunch of different packages and all have failed to work. I tried iDeneb, Kalway, Leo4All V3, and JaS. I am a bit of a newb at this, so it is possible that I botched any one of those installs. Either Kalway or Leo4All installed, but wouldn't boot with the SATA problem. JaS wouldn't even boot the installer. iDeneb installed, but wouldn't boot. I searched and found someone had luck with ToH, I didn't even know about that one until today... Would that one be the best one to try next? Thanks so much for your help.

Chris Parker Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 Ah Success! I tried iATKOS 4.1i and it works great! Network, Sound and Graphics! Its not using QE, but thats not too bad... I used the ToS Kernel, the standard Darwin EFI, used the "Other" ICHX mobo driver. Thanks for pointing me in that direction!
