Alternative for my hardware specs

[crawle]

Hey guys,
I started looking through this OSX86-Stuff, but I finally don't know, what's really best version for me and my PC. I've already tried the (great, great, great!) Zephyroth-Version, but aa unknown kernel panic occurred (we discussed about it already). I think, you can help me in this question. But at first, my further hardware specs:

Processor: AMD Athlon 64 3200+
Codename: Venice
Revision: DH-E6
Instructions: MMX (+) 3DNow! (+) SSE SSE2 SSE3 x86-64

MainBoard: Epox 9HEAI with VIA K8T890 / VT8237R chipset
Northbridge: VIA K8T890 rev 00
Southbridge: VIA VT8237 rev 00

RAM: 2048 MB (4x 512 MB PC400)
Type: DDR-SDRAM Dual Channel
Timing: 2.5-3-3-7
RAM-Takt: 163.7 MHz
Ratio: CPU/11

Graphics: nVidia GeForce 6600 GT (still rocks!)

Hard Drive Disks: - 140 GB Seagate (P)ATA (IDE)
- (very soon, there'll be a) 250 GB Seagate/Samsung (we'll see) (P)ATA (IDE)

Sound: RealTek onboard + a very, very old Creative Soundcard (not important - I found it in an old PC - and it worked) (about PCI)

Peripherials: 20" LG Flatron L203WT (about DVI), 19" BenQ T905 (about VGA), Cherry eVolution Shadow (Mouse + Keyboard)

So that's it. Actually I have installed the JaS-Tiger 10.4.8, but it runs very instable, so it's not really fun (only when it has booted at the third try and the right kexts are loaded - my 20" monitor only works in safe mode and both monitors show the same) ...
So my question to you: Should I wait for Rev 2? I don't know, if it'll work and I don't know, if it's not possible, that another version fits better to my specs!? So please tell me. Sure, if I could choose, I'd choose Leopard, but I want, that it runs stable as possible.
I think, you can help me. And you'll do! ;-)

Many greetings,
crawle

Could you explain the kernel panic again please? Which components are supported with on your actual osx86 version?

[crawle]

Do you mean the Zeph-Leo? The kernel panic was something like this:

Panic (cpu 0 caller 0x0036DAC7):"Process 1 exec of /sbin/launchd failed, errno 88\n"@/volumes/disk1s2/leo_xnu-1228/bsd/kern/kern_exec.c:2884

And I don't know, what exactly is supported on my actual osx86 version, but I heard, it should be one of the best.

[naquaada]

I ment, which of your hardware components are supported. The most common problems are Audio, LAN and Graphics. Graphics must support Quartz Extreme and CoreImage (QE/CI) and graphics mode selection. What's working on your system?

To the Tiger image: I never had good experiences with JaS images, these were all crappy and after 10.4.8 all following images from everybody had that disk utility bug. The best Tiger image I can recommend is the 10.4.6 image from myzar + his 10.4.7 update. But this isn't easy to get and has no nVidia support. I was using this image all the time, but now I'm switching to Leopard because it seems to run very stable on my systems. And it's faster than Tiger, too.

[crawle]

And what's about a alternative AMD-Leopard version? Is there any good (, too)?

[naquaada]

There is another one on piratebay, ToH RC2, but this one wasn't even booting on my nForce system. It stopped after a short while, also on the machine of a friend.
