weird boot abnormality

[Marcng]

Hi all, i have been reading in this forum for quite some time now and just put together a rig for leopard yesterday.

started the installation today. leopard installed fine and it asked to reboot.

so i rebooted and took the DVD out, chose the 'leopard' HDD to boot.

but for some reason it hangs at where i can see the mouse rotating, that's right after the greyish apple screen.

so i tried booting with -x, and it went straight into the desktop without a hitch!!

then i tried without it, it hung again.

 

does anybody know what this might indicate?

 

system:

Q6600

P5K-Premium

2 x 1G Crucial

7900GTX 512MB

250G HDD (all for leopard)

LG DVD rom

 

installation:

Kalyway w/ vanilla kernel

NVinject

GUID bootloader

 

thanks for helping

 

PS. could somebody tell me what kext i might have to change? and how?

is there a specific reason why the screen saver is skippy?
