Now that 10.5.2 is Out.

 

I am in serious need for guidance on Installing Leopard on this machine.

 

I am currently Running Unbuntu, But would prefer to swap over to Leopard. I Am in Yokohama Japan. SO I am hoping to find someone in the area or willing to guide me through this install process.

 

Cheers!

I have an Asus G2S too, pretty much same specs as yours except my display is WXGA. I had no luck with kalyway installation.

After adding cpu=1 I was able to finally go thru the end of the install, but then when it wont boot.

I am trying to install on a USB disk.

Any hints?
