zachygore Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Hello I'm having a spot of trouble installing Leopard onto my rig (seee below) using iATKOS 1.01 AMD Patched, and was wondering if it was worth trying the other distributions, Leo4All-10.5.2 or Zephyroth's etc. I'm a total beginner so any help would be appreiciated. When i boot from iATKOS dvd i just get stuck in a loop and tells me to restart in 1231299 different laguage i tried to -v command and got a timeout error. my rig as follows AMD X2 6000+ 2gb Corsair DDR2 RAM@667Mhz Abit AN52 Nforce mainboard 250gb SATA Samsung HDD ASUS SATA Dvd+R nVidia 7900GS Cheers.

Tin_man_0 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Definately worth trying another distro. When they come already "pateched" for AMD, I alwasy seem to get alot further, but AMD installas are the hardest in my opinion.

Almas Khan Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 I've been using Zephyroth 10.5.2 Installation DVD awesome distribution, you should check out the bay to get it. For AMD I would definitely recommend Zephyroth.
