Dell Latitude D620; Kernel Panic with 10.6.8

[ldra02]

Hi,

 

First of all, I have a D620 with the Nvidia Quadro NVS 110.

 

Here's the method I used that has worked so far, somewhat:

1. Retail DVD restored on a Mac's Disk Util (after format to GUID HFS+)
    
   
2. Replacing mach_kernel via console as well as boot (this may be my mistake)
    
   
3. Install
    
   
4. Rebooted with install USB
    
   
5. EDP pack
    
   
6. Updated 10.6.8 (I didn't realize I had to fix permissions after this, another mistake?)
    
   
7. #######
    
   
8. STOPPING POINT - kernel panic during ##### install.
   

Help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thank you!

 

Forgot to mention -- using rebranded bios for my specific machine from osxlatitude as well as their boot pack in the usb.

 

New to hackintosh as well as OS X in general, so please go easy on me. I've done a lot of reading but I well know I'm not nearly as well versed as most of you. I'm coming over from the PC side of things.
