Over the past 3 days I've spent countless hours reading before I even tried installing LeoHazard's SL on my PC.

The installation went by pretty easy. However, when it comes to boot. I get a kernel panic.

I then booted the pc via the cd drive and removed the kext that was causing the panic. But after a reboot. The panic persists.

the panic (see image below).

I've also deleted the s/l/e/extensions.mkext (I read on another forum to try this out)

and after a normal reboot i get the error "You Need to Restart Your Computer" in multiple languages.

I attempted to use terminal with admin rights but when i type
"su" i get "command not found"
"sudo" gives me the same message.

Can ya'll help a guy out?

what bootflags are you using? You're using nawcom legacy kernel? what did you select during customize install, did you select this as a kernel? (Old intel = needs legacy kernel to run).

bootflags:
-v arch=i386

Thanks for chiming in!

I used EFI to boot.

The legacy kext i have are:

LegacyappleIntelPIIXATA.kext
LegayJMB36xSATA.Kext

I have booted trying different flags
-x
-v
-v busratio=20 cpus=1
-f

I will try -v arch=i386

EDIT: tried booting with -v arch=i386. still no luck.

i appreciate the input thought

Try not to pick those legacy kexts.

Those only do anything on Lion and are no problem fixers, they are just for PCI probing.
