check your hard drives. Found WD5000AAKB causing trouble. Found article on PC World taht talks about how Snow Leopard finds bad kextrs hardware that runs find in Leopard but will not work with Snow Leopard. Still tring to get SL to install but now the panic is gone

 

I tried booting the install with all my hard drives disconnected to make sure that wasn't the case. No luck.

 

There is also no option for ACPI 2.0 in my BIOS anywhere. I have a Gigabyte EX58-UD3R (Core i7) with the latest BIOS.

In my bios under power tab > acpi 2. support. If I disable it than SL kernel panics immediately, If I Enable it Everzthing is OK.

After looking it up, it appears Gigabyte's X58 motherboards don't have ACPI 2.0. Only ACPI 1.0b, this shouldn't be the problem though because there are others with success using EX58-UD5.

 

 

 

 

I think there are some workaround here in the forum, some patched dsdt or similar.

I have the exact same panic, immediately on loading the kernel before any kexts, on an asus P5K pro. I have an ACPI 2.0 setting in the bios and it makes no difference so I don't think that's the problem...

 

Edit: Ignore my sig. It's somewhat out of date!

Try this

Install on Extra.

 

Sorry, I am still learning the OSX86 world. When you say Install on Extra, what do you mean. When I boot my SL, I can't get to terminal or command prompt (old windows user here). I downloaded the kexts, but I don't know how to install them without being in the OS.

 

Thanks!
