first of all: I would like to say hello to all people here on this forum. And I would like to give a few big compliments to those, who keep this running (and who GOT this running :P )

 

Even though it's so well commented, I would like to ask a question:

The installation instructions say this:

 

 

If you have an older computer with limited options in the BIOS(ACPI/APIC) and 

you are able to install but when you boot the freshly installed O/S you are 

stuck just after ACPI loads, try installing with the APIC-Fix checked. This will 

install an Older ACPIPlatform and APIC for better compatability.

 

 

 

This is totally clear, but where can I select APIC-Fix ? It's not at the Advanced section. there is an AMD fix there, but no APIC-fix.

 

My laptop has that problem. (you are able to install but when you boot the freshly installed O/S you are stuck just after ACPI loads)

 

Can you guys help me? :thumbsdown_anim:

 

Thanks in advance! :(

You probably need to install a different "/System/Library/Extensions/AppleACPIPlatform.kext". Try replacing this with the one found on the retail Leopard 10.5 DVD.
