according to this: http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/HCL_10.5.2/Portables#Acer_Aspire_4520 you can use Leo4Allv2 (and all the follow-ons to that because they give the same support) to install.

Hello, I have an AcerAspire 5520, details are much similar to U2Desire:

Processor & chipset
AMD Turion™ 64 X2 dual-core mobile technology
NVIDIA nForceŽ 630M chipset

Memory
DDR2 memory 2GB

HDD
S-ATA hard disc drive

Graphics
NVIDIA GeForceŽ 7000M con fino a 896 MB di tecnologia TurboCache™

ACPI 3.0 CPU power management standard

I've been trying to install leopard but the installer does not recognize my HD, not just the partition I created for leopard (40gb, primary partition, created with gnuparted) but the complete HD!! (where win & lin are installed and work OK).
The "disk utilities window" and the 2select where to install window" are all blank after installer "gathers disk information" during installation. Any clue?

Hi,

Sorry problem with rebooting after AHCI Mode setup is only for Win****.

Problem actually is in the line :
SAM Multimedia: READ or WRITE failed ...etc

any suggestion?

Thanks.
