Could someone with choosing the correct settings to get Mac OSX Leopard running?

I have IPC 10.5.6 Final and my specs are as follows:

Motherboard: MSI MS-7250
CPU: AMD AM2 Athlon 5200+ x2
Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce 8600 GT XFX
RAM: 4 GB DDR2 600 mhz
Hard Drive: 250 GB SATA

I have got it to install once however I randomly encountered kernel panic which stated to contact the voodoo team. I have previously installed using voodoo 9.50 and seatbelt like the notes say but I always encounter a boot error at the end of the installation when i click restart and then it does not boot into the os after i reset.

Please can someone tell me which drivers, patchs, chipset, etc to use for my system?

thank you very much in advance!

Graeme.

Why don't you try another patched install. I tried just about all of them until I tried Leo4all v4 10.5.6 and is now very stable (albeit after some fiddling seatbelt, sound etc.).
