I installed using iATKOS v7 several times. Always had problems. But last I installed with only the default settings and ps/2 drivers and then it booted into the os. But then I wanted to add other drivers and I thought I'd install them one by one to see which one is causing problems. So I installed graphics first and then i got black screen, so I guess that was the problem and I don't know which driver to choose for my graphics card. (or maybe something else is the problem)
My specs:
AMD Athlon 64 3000+
Nvidia Geforce 7600 GS
VIA motherboard
AC 97 sound
Via Rhine II fast ethernet adapter
Maybe someone could help me choose the right drivers/kernel/etc.

Thanks anyway, but i tried installing differently. I used iPC and iATKOS to get it working. Works great. But now software updates doesn't seem to work, it keeps checking for new software and never seem to stop.

Get OSx86 Tools and choose "Add EFI String / Bootflag" then "GFX String", select your card import it and apply it to your com.apple.Boot.plist reboot and see if it works.
