Please Help: Can’t boot into Leopard Installation

[MerlinUO]

Hey Guys,

 

I have been looking all over the place for a solution to my problem (mostly these forums), but have found nothing that has helped.

 

I am trying to boot into the Leopard DVD but cant because of this error:

 

Checksleepcapability: ohci controller will be unloaded across sleep

 

This line is repeated about 5 times until the dreaded “Still waiting for root device” error comes up.

 

I have tried both Zephoroth’s AMD 10.5.2 distro and the latest Leo4All distro.

 

My specs are:

 

AMD 3500+

Asus M2A-VM Motherboard (690G Chipset)

250GB SATA Western Digital HD

250GB IDE Maxtor HD

LG DVD Writer IDE

Nvidia 8600 GTS OC (Dont know if this effects anything)

 

I have tried setting the HD as primary and the DVD as slave and vice versa to no avail. Tried disabling legacy support, but when I do this, my keyboard and mouse don’t work and I can’t press anything in order to boot into the DVD. Tried removing one HD and booting. But nothing is working.

 

I am downloading the latest Kalaway 10.5.2 release in hopes that it will work.

 

Any suggestions on what I can do would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.
