Well first off, here are my specs:

Acer Aspire 5535
AMD Athlong 64 X2 Dual-Core Processor QL-64 (2.1ghz, 1mb L2 Cache)
ATI Radeon HD 3200 Graphics Card

I want to know which OSX distro would be the best or if any would be able to run on this system. I currently have tried Kalyway, iATKOS, and iDeneb.

Kalyway - When booting from cd / dvd into installation, it comes up with an error.

iATKOS - No error this time, and installed fine, however when booting back into iATKOS after installation there would be the apple logo, but no loading circle and would just stay there with no other information.

iDeneb - Same thing as iATKOS accept this time, there would be a loading circle and then show a unavailable? logo on top of the apple logo.

And help would be appreciated.

Thanks all!

Boot with -v flag. What's the last line before it stops?

Well in which distro?

In iATKOS it came up with "Still waiting for root device".

In Kalyway this is the error I got.. (Same error as one in youtube video after searching for an answer) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Am3foxeStsA&feature=related

And thats why I tried iDeneb, it installed perfectly, however when trying to boot after install it would just show up with a unavailable image on the apple logo.

If ideneb installed fine then boot with -v flag to see what error you getting.
