GA-MA790XT-UD4P/Phenom II X4 945

[borg101]

First, my system specs:

 

Mobo: GA-MA790XT-UD4P

CPU: Phenom II X4 945

Memory: 8GB DDR3 1333

Video: Nvidia GTS250

 

So, I keep getting kernel panics when I try to install Leo 10.6.2. I've tweeked my BIOS settings to exactly where they need to be (and some variants), removed all unnecessary internal connections (extra DVD-RW's, HDD's, etc.). I've tried various bootloaders, including the default and EFI. I want to try Kakewalk, but it seems to only support Intel Gigabyte mobo's. I keep getting kernel panics on CPU3. I got a few on CPU1 when I was experimenting with MBR instead of GUID.

 

I've visited almost every forum, website, project, etc. and seen almost every video on youtube and other sites regarding installing OS X on AMD hardware. I can't seem to find anything to help me. There is one post (http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=171524) that addresses this, but the user is using an older version of Kakewalk on a disc as opposed to USB.

 

Does anyone have any advice or links that I may be missing?

 

And on an unrelated noted, does it bother anyone else when people post topics with titles like "help!!!" Its just so descriptive, I skip right over it!

Nobody should use such a title.

Hey Borg,

 

I have the same MB and CPU in my PC and I managed to install it.

 

Try to start the installation with the bootflags: -v busratio=17
