duddy Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Here is my setup: Intel Q6600 2.4Ghz Quad Core 500GB SATA HDD 4GB RAM Sony DVD-RW IDE Drive GeForce 8800GT I have tried booting Kalyways' 10.5.2 DVD. But during boot, it's get's to 'Still waiting for root device'. It will repeat that message an unlimited amount of times. Will my setup work, and if so, what am I doing wrong?

knewsom Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 As for NVinject, doesn't it depend on the maker of the card? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/99733-analyze-this/#findComment-713746 Share on other sites More sharing options...
