Well, there's only really one problem. It won't install at all. It stops on the boot up.

Sorry for low quality, picture taken with Iphone.

It doesn't do anything else, but stays on that screen. The only thing I've done to the laptop, is turn off Speedstep. Here's the specs.

Intel Celeron 1.8 ghz

1GB 677Mhz DDR2 SDRAM

120G 5400RPM Hard Drive

Mobile Intel® 965 Express Chipset Family (128 MB)

8x DVD Burner with Double Layer capability

15.4” widescreen anti-glare screen (1280x800)

Dell Wireless 355 Bluetooth Internal (2.0 + Enhanced Data Rate)

Dell Wireless 1505 Mini-Card (Pre-802.11n)

85 WHr 9-cell Lithium Ion Primary Battery

Tried both xXx 10.5.6, and Itakos v5.

I too have a Vostro 1500 but with the NVidia video, wireless 1505, and Core 2 Duo processor. All types of issues trying to get OS X to boot and work properly. Give the Boot-132 and Type 11 method a shot. You will need an original Leopard install DVD for the Boot-132. The install works perfectly. To me, the best install process around!

 

Good Luck!
