AMD Snow Leopard 10.6.3 help

[joeym929]

So far I've gotten Snow Leopard installed on my computer. I used a retail 10.6.3 install dvd and Empire EFI v1.085 and it installed fine. However, when I go to do the post installation from the Empire EFI disc (only thing different I select is chocolate kernel for AMD support) it installs the patches and when I reboot without the disc it acts like its loading and the wheel is spinning then all of a sudden a small icon appears (circle with a line through it) and it just sits there. Now my hardware in my PC is fairly new so I'm not expecting this to work 100%. But I can boot back into the partiton through the empire EFI disc I made but thats the only way. Any suggestions please post.

80GB SATA Hard Drive (for snow leopard)

LG SATA DVD Burner

Hi,

 

Can you please tell me your BIOS version and the settings that you used? I can't even get to the installer with this mobo.. Did you use Empire EFI v1.085 or Empire EFI v1.085 R2?

Did you continue using your hackintosh build or did you find a better way of installing it perhaps?

 

The reason why you can't boot without cd probably has something to do with your bootloader and/or kernel.

You could look here for more info:

I hope you can help me as well, but this is a fairly old topic it seems ^^
