So, I'm taking a swing at this whole OS X thing. I've worked with Linux before and know I had to do my reading beforehand. After that, I popped in the install disk and hoped for greatness.

 

My system is the ASUS G50Vt-X5 laptop (courtesy of Best Buy). It's a Centrino 2 box so I'm guessing everything in here is Intel as far as chipsets go. I also know what won't work from reading testimonials. Specs below.

 

Intel C2D 2.13Ghz

4GB DDR2-800 RAM

320GB HDD with 2 partitions (OSX/Vista)

Nv GF 9800M GS 512MB

Intel 5100ABGN Wireless

Realtek AL663 Audio

 

Install went w/o a hitch, but it keeps stalling out when it boots. I double/triple check all the appropriate flags but she's not going anywhere. I'm guessing offhand it's somewhere close to where the kernel actually loads (it's not returning any error codes- I'll try to get an SS of it posted here soon.)

 

Installation options:

ICHx fix

PS/2 fix for mouse

PS/2 fix for keyboard

DSDT patch

Chameleon with DSDT support

 

I've tried this on both the Vanilla kernel and the Voodoo kernel with the same results. Any help appreciated!
