I need some help I have currently leopard 10.5.7 and am trying to install SL10.6 on another drive the problem I am getting is

 

ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin::start waitForService(resourceMatching(AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement) timed out

 

I am using latest chameleon and made a dsdt.aml file from leopard got the cmos reset bug so read more and fixed that problem also discovered that sata drives need to be in AHCI mode

 

I get this error on both the startup install disk copied to a partition of 2nd hard drive the other partition is where SL is installed as I could not boot into the install disk I opened osxinstall.mpkg and selected the drive from there .

 

Once that was done I copied the extra/extensions stuff over but thats when I noticed other issues there are no permisions set ie if I type chown -R root:wheel /volumes/system/library/extensions/(filename) and chmod -755 command they dont change so I am thinking that may be the issue are there new commands to change ownership in SL is it due to my install method?

 

be greatly appreciated for some help

I think it may have something to do with my grafix card eah2600xt or loginwindow.app

 

I boot using -v flag so I can see whats happening once the HD / DVD / USB stops loading ( I have tried all 3 ) and press the enter key ( what I believe is select language screen ) I get more disk activity so it may be one of the above I will look for a method to put ATI related kexts into /Extra/Extensions

 

Does anyone know if that will help ?
