AMD Athlon 64 x2 Dual Core Processor 4800+ 2.5 ghz
2 gb RAM
Nvidia Geforce 8600GT 128

My problem:
I have succesfully installed Leopard on my PC.

It took 2hours or so BUT it doesn't boot. The darwin bootloader apears... I wait 5 sec and then it restarts again and again. I tried cpus=1 - nothing changes.

I used Kalyway 10.5.2 DVD Intel_Amd (sse2/sse3) EFI V.

Hope someone will answer my problem.
Thanks.

if it's and AMD processor, i think you need Voodoo kernel, or something to skip the kernel check over your AMD cpu.

2 hours ?!?

That's not a good sign.

You need to boot with the -v flag and post a screenshot of the freeze. It would also help if you mentioned the motherboard/chipset. ;)

Otherwise it's almost impossible to help.
