Once you done install with the CD, You will not be able to start the system !!! What you need to do is to boot with the CD again and do the following,

 

Open Terminal,

 

1. cd /Volumes/XXXX/System/Library/ where XXXX is the Partition Name you install LEOPARD

2. sudo rm -rf Extensions.mkext Extensions Cache

3. sudo cp /System/Library/Extensions.mkext .

 

Then you restart the installed system with flag -v -f

 

Now you get Leopard on TravelMate 290.
