Ok first of all I must say that I am a total n00b in osx86...

I did a little search and I found a bios patch for my mb before installing. That's all what I did before trying to install Leopard..

So I boot from the DVD formated my drive to Mac osx extended (journaled) and then I installed the system but I didn't install some things like kernel cause I didn't see anywhere the correct kernel for my setup...

After install I get the "Still waiting for root device" error..

 

My setup has the following:

 

MB: ASUS P5Q3

CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad 2.66 Q9400

RAM: x2 2GB Corsair DDR 3

Graphics: RADEON HD 4850

HDD: WD 500GB Sata II

Install DVD: iPC 10.5.6 PPF 5 Final

 

I tried to do exactly what HLC suggested for my MB but some things can't be done, like with the kernel....

 

Anybody has a similar setup that managed to install Leopard on it?

 

Plz help me?

Also how can I install the drivers for my mb while the installer doesn't have any?

 

Thx in advance

 

Edit: I formatted once again and reinstalled leopard and this time I set my drive as primary(in BIOS) cause I have 2 drives(the other running XP)

Also I saw that if I didn't check any kernel from the installer, the installer is installing the default which is Vanilla 0.9.6 i think(So I'm good for that matter) ...but still the same error :)

 

Anybody plz?

I am desperate
