I've tried the snowOSX universal one, wouldn't boot on my system

I then run the installer inside leopard (using the OSInstall.mpkg) got to the customize menu found it a bit limiting in the number of kexts/fixes available. Also there was just one "snow bootloader" to choose from. I chose the best choices for my system and proceeded with the install. Then finished up and made DSDT as described, rebooted and guess what?

Bootloader didn't work. So I installed chameleon RC3 and managed to get it booting from that drive, now the only obstacle I got now is trying to find what kexts are causing the kernel panics.

I've spent so much effort trying to get this distro to work I might as well installed from retail version, I didn't have too many problems using the developer previews there's plenty of guides about. Not saying we shouldn't have distros, it's just the quality from some is lacking these days.
