How to start setup iDeneb 1.3

[hbanken]

Hi everyone,

 

First of all: I'm very new to this stuff, installing OSX on a PC.

 

I'm working on a Acer Travelmate 5515WLMi (5510 series) notebook and I'm trying to get the setup running.

 

Before I put the DVD of iDeneb (1.3) in the drive (IDE dvd-rw) I formatted an primary partition on my SATA disk0 with an gParted-usbstick as FAT32 and HFS+ (I tried both) and set it as active (boot flag). After doing these preparations I started my iDeneb DVD by hitting F12 at startup to select the DVD drive as boot medium. I typed F8 and entered different parameters, with each their own errors:

1. "rd=disk0s3 platform=ACPI maxmem=1700 -x -v": NFS error => panic => BSD thread: kernel_task
   
2. "maxmem=1700 platform=ACPI -x -v -s": Still waiting on root device
   
3. "maxmem=1700 platform=ACPI -x -v": Worked once, but I formatted drive again to change customized options, cause it wasn't booting well, but never worked again. All other tries also got still waiting... error.
   
4. and others which I don't remember
   

I kept trying the one which worked once but it didn't worked again and now I hope someone has an idea for me.

 

I'm missing a lot of BIOS options, like editing master/slave, however I'm able to change the boot device order.

 

Hopefully someone has an anwser for me. PS: I'm Dutch, so that's why my Englisch is not perfect.
