780i SLI FTW Boot problems

[Metallica35]

to begin with, my specs are as follows:

 

-780i SLI FTW mobo

-2x 1tb Seagate SATA HDs

-PATA DVD drive (hp)

-intel core2 quad @2.4ghz

-nVidia GeForce 9500gt graphics card

-8GB (4x2GB) corsair DDR2 800mhz RAM

 

I have almost every version of hackintosh releases under the sun. I tried almost every boot method, including changing my BIOS options, and using the rd=diskXsY command. I've been trying a combination of "nforce -v cpus=1 maxmem=2048 rd=diskXsY", but nothing can get any of these releases to boot. I get stuck at the "still waiting for root device" error every single time. The releases I have acquired include: Kalyway 10.5.2, iDeneb 10.5.5, iAtkos v1i, v4i, and v5i, and Leo4All. They all give me the same error no matter what I do! I've been trying to get Mac OS X installed on my computer because I am a computer science major in school, and I need the UNIX functionality. I currently am dual booting Vista and Linux, but I would really just rather have Mac OS X for everything on this desktop, especially since I have a macbook. No compatibility issues between my 2 computers would be lovely. Anyone who could help me, I would GREATLY appreciate it!

For those Versions you have to have installed from IDE DVD first of all. THe kernels known to work well are nforcekernel, toh_9.2sleep, toh_9.2speedstep, voodoo 1.0 9.5.0, voodoo beta 2c, prolly

 

you have to disable the onboard ethernet, and use cpus=1 flag. try permutations of both.

don't forget u need to do a -f when u mess with the extensions without KextHelper

and chmod 755 your extenions if they are not when u ls -l
