Kalyway 10.5.2 reboots before graphical installer

[NacMacNeedle]

I'm trying to install OSX on my Acer Aspire M3201, using Kalyway 10.5.2 AMD/Intel.

 

So far I've freed about 16GB of partitionable space and burnt the ISO to a DVD without any patching, changing or fiddling arount with its contents.

 

The space I freed formerly was a hidden Windows-Partition which identified as /dev/sda1 under Linux (yes, the Acer-Restore-Whattheheck-Partition...).

 

When I boot up the DVD first of all the installer starts, asking me to press F8 to choose boot options.

 

 

 

If I boot up without options or with verbose (-v) there appear three lines of "Reading HFS+ file...", then the machine reboots.

 

If I enable safe mode (-x) it reads a number of files, kernel extensions, and drivers for about 2 minutes, then it reboots.

 

Single user mode (-s) won't help because until now I can't even boot to this point.

 

It doesn't make a difference whether I choose sleepkernel or speedstepkernel (all others would require SSE3, according to the readme), neither does cpus=1.

 

 

 

My System:

Acer Aspire M3201


AMD Phenom Quad-Core

4 GB RAM

video: nVidia GeForce 9800GM

audio: Realtec ALC8887

ethernet: Marvell Yukon (Linux-module: patched sky2)

PS2 mouse and keyboard


plus great number of nonsense input and output stuff like card readers, digital video out, maybe somewhere a hidden cupholder or destroy-the-universe button which I don't need at all...

 

 

 

Oh, and me and my wife own a number of Macintosh notebooks as well as one spare Leopard licence.

 

I'd really appreciate some hints in the right direction.

Doesn't anybody have an idea what could cause the problem? I'd appreciate any hints, also on finding out what's the cause...
