General Post OS X Install Support

[mars0124]

So I have installed OS X 10.6.? last night using SnowLeo on my AMD x64 machine in hopes of having a Hackintosh running with my iPad 2 and Apple TV 2. After selecting a variety of kexts that were picked arbitrarily (for lack of documentation of my computer type) I have an installation that I can boot to Single User mode, or Safe Mode. I realize on a fresh install this likely means that I am either missing a kext, or have one installed that does not belong.

 

When trying a 'proper' boot it crashes - the best that I can see when set to verbose is that I am having problems with USBEHCI (not responding in less than 100ms).

 

What I am hoping for here is not instructions on what kext/kernel modules I need, but rather how to determine this information for myself. So step 1) How do I determine what is causing my problem? /var/log???

 

Many thanks for your help!
