you need to boot with -v from darwin or nobody will be able to help you. We need to know what error messages your seeing when the display goes crazy.
I has the same problem,
i´m booting with -v -x in savemode, create an account. After restart it boots without problems
I had the same problem. I followed sChLuR's solution, boot with -v -x, then I can start Leopard, and create a new account in savemode. After rebooting, everything works. It's awesome.
