Got SL installed, almost booting, getting stuck

System:

Asus P5K-VM, Intel Q6600, 8GB RAM, Evga 9600 GT 512MB

250 GB WD SATA - Leopard 10.5.6 vanilla installed, Chameleon 2.0 RC1

1500 GB Seagate SATA - Target for Snow Leopard, partitioned into 500 GB / 897 GB, Chameleon 2.0 RC2

 

- Got SL installed via Leopard (OSInstall.mpkg method)

- Got Chameleon 2.0RC2 installed along with modded SL boot

- Four kexts installed:

* dsmos.kext, NullCPUPowerManagement.kext, OpenHaltRestart.kext, PlatformUUID.kext

(all allegedly 64-bit SL versions)

- Patched DSDT with GUI patcher, no further customization

 

It gets a ways through the boot process, then stops altogether here:

The last thing it barks about is power management, but I see that same error on Leopard and it doesn't hang up there; I'm guessing the problem is occurring before related screen output.

 

Anybody have any ideas or helpful tips on how I can figure out what's borked?

there is already a thread about this.

 

Your graphics card isn't supported.

 

I'm too lazy to repost so look at this guide

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=182227

and in the needed files it has links to graphics fixes

I do wish it were that easy :).

 

Logs show that it's something to do with Spotlight crashing & burning, oddly enough. But googling the error gets me only one result, and it is in a different language. So I guess I'll have to figure this one out on my own. I hoped the forums would be helpful, but as per usual that's only true for the common problems.
