Try disabling the onboard lan in your bios, depending on the nforce version osx doesn't like to play well with the onboard lan from what I've read. If that doesn't work, then I'm not sure what to try, I can't get past the 'still waiting for root device' error.

note : if u get when tring to boot the disk , try to run it off a USB , it works ,
if its after the installation try this method :

Well it doesn't realy look like an error, but you can try if it boots up, if you remove IONetworkFamily.kext - keep in mind to do a back-up and that this will completely disable the Ethernet functionality on your system.

btw: Why don't you just update your working installation?
