Freeze at "BootCache: too many history clusters" (rev 2)

Hi, I downloaded Rev. 2 yesterday to try it out since I never really got Rev 1 to work well (ie: nvinject didn't work, was forced to boot using DVD and rd=diskXsY...) Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work either, see the boot log: My HW…

Hi, I downloaded Rev. 2 yesterday to try it out since I never really got Rev 1 to work well (ie: nvinject didn't work, was forced to boot using DVD and rd=diskXsY...)

Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work either, see the boot log:

My HW is:

AMD Athlon 64 4200+ X2
1 GB RAM
1x IDE HDD, maxtor brand. Think this is slave, but I'm not 100% sure. It's only plugged in because Rev 1 just froze at "waiting for root device" without it.
2x SATA2 HDD's, western digital. I'm installing OS X on one of these.
1x TSSTcorp DVD+-RW burner
nvidia geforce 6600 GT pci-e
Some kind of nforce4 motherboard (think ECS)

Worth noting here is that I already have an OS X installation, but it's broken.

Hope I didn't miss anything here, and I'd be glad for any assistance!
