When I go to about this mac it stills says darwin 10.4.0 is being used. Does this just not update? I downloaded 10.7.0 and updated for 10.6.7. The package installs itself yet it still says 10.4.0 in the about this mac window. Is it updated or not? Thanks.

just be sure u assign legacy kernel as default in the com.apple.boot.plist in extra folder and it should use it

We have almost the same exact specs besides the motherboard akimoa. What did you do to install leopard? I think my problem is I'm installing 10.6 retail and updating straight to 10.6.7 via software update.

Tried that and it installed, but when I went to boot with the boot cd it won't work no matter what boot flag I use. I'm going to try and boot with nawcom after work and see if I can get it booted. If not, I will install with nawcom, then follow the tutorial once I get to the desktop.

Thanks!

Here is what I did:
followed tutorial in link above. When I rebooted after install I used nawcom boot cd instead of the one they gave. Followed tutorial from then on. Did not update yet. Had to instal realtek kext to get internet working. Updating system now.

Updating did not work. Even after legacy kernel. Gave me same error I was having before. I am going to keep it as 10.6.5 because it works perfectly fine WITH full gpu support. I wish I could software update to 10.6.7 but it is just not working for me. If someone knows of a solution please let me know. Thank you.
