Cant boot after i successfully install iAtkosv7
i cant successfully install iAtkosv7 without a problem. After the installation completes and in restart the computer i am unable to boot into OSX. When i try and boot using the -v command i get the infamous "still waiting for root device." I read the sticky post by Voyn1x about some possible solutions but none of them worked for me. I cant seem to find the answer and that is why i ask for your help. Could it be because i am using old hardware?

a little bit more information would be helpful.
e.g. what board do you have? what cpu? which kernel did you install? etc. |

ah, i've set my prefs not to show signatures.
anyway i'm not sure about celerons. your 5200 should be fine tho. can you switch between ahci and ide mode? did you choose everything to match your hardware like chipset etc. during the inst.? |

I got the audio working by installing "AppleAC97Audio.kext." But i still cant get my video card(FX 5200) to support Quartz Extreme. I installed NVKush during installation. I got QuartzGL working by using OSX86 Tools. What other video drivers do you guys recommend.

So i installed NVidia Universal Installer and now I have QE/CI working. Quartz Extreme is "Supported" and Core Image is "Hardware Accelerated" but i have scrambled graphics. There are black spots(although I can hear the sound) when I try and watch a youtube video. When i open Firefox there are some grey rectangles covering some buttons(even though I can still click them).

I now have full QE/CI support. I installed nVidia Universal Installer and that enabled my graphics card to support both QE/CI but I had scrambled graphics. To fix the graphics issue I installed "10.5.5.CoreGraphics.framework" from the iAtkos v5i DVD. After that installation I restarted my computer and I had fixed the issue.
