Hello,
I decided to start a own topic for my problem, as I didn't get any answers in the big thread.
I've got the following laptop:
Amilo Pa1510
AMD Turion X2
ATI Xpress 1100
ATI RS482M Chipset
WDC IDE HDD
ATI SB450 - High Definition Audio Controller
Field Value
HL-DT-ST DVD-RW GWA-4082N IDE DVD-drive

I installed using 9.2.0 kernel, EFI MBR, ATI Display drivers, Nforce Sata support and all Audio drivers.
When I boot in -v mode I get the error in the attached picture. The last lines are related to problems with a firewire-driver, but I don't have Firewire at all.
I've got the problem that I can't change any BIOS settings, like ACHI-HDD-mode.
I guess that my ATI RS 428 chipset is the problem. Did I chose the right drivers at install or do I have to inject any kexts into the dvd?
I don't want to lose another 2 hours with installing OSX without succes, so it'd be nice if you could help me. If you need other informations about my installation or the laptop just ask.
thx

You should not have added the Nforce Sata support, as your chipset would use the AppleVIAATA.kext.

So it might work if i install it without the nforce support?
