So what your saying it that your machine Kernel Panics only when you "Restart" and not "Shutdown"? If thats the case then I would try installing "OpenhaltRestart.kext" or something that does the same thing. As for the Graphics card I need to know how much memory is has onboard then I can suggest a fix for you.

Field Note #1 @kneegrowplease 2010-09-28

I definitely need help. IPC installs fine but get kernel Panic on reboot, which can be avoided by holding the power button and not actually rebooting. I can then get into the install once using the -f flag where it runs flawlessly but upon reboot I'm screwed…
