crusaderoath Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 Edit: Now using LEO4ALL as it passes the "waiting for root device" issue Setup: 1 HDD : SATA Western Digital Caviar Black 1tb (no volumes) 1 DVD : Super Blu Bluray Drive (SATA) 2 x 1GB OCZ Low Latency Ram (800mhz) Core 2 Duo E6700 cpu with virtualization disabled XFX nForce 680i SLI LT motherboard I will attempt to format my main hard drive as Journaled filesystem using another computer or some kind of bootable cd. It crashes with a kernel panic each run at this point shortly after starting the bootup from the installation disc (occurs with safe mode as well as without). Edit: Since following the nForce setup guide I have managed to pass the kernel panic. Now, there is a random freeze that can occur anywhere between starting to load kext files to right before seeing the first OSX setup page. I have tried safe boot as well as safe video and forced loading of all drivers. I am looking for any input at all as to why this sort of thing would keep happening. OS Distros tried: iATKOS v7 LEO4ALLv4 trying Kalyway 10.5.2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/200629-installing-on-xfx-mobo/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
