Howdy Folks-

I'm doing a hackintosh install on a 904ha Eee PC. I know it's been done before, but the only post I can google out successfully by the guy who did it isn't super informative, just talks about using the dsdt patch.

I've got the boot-132 CD and a retail leopard install disk. I can boot the disk, but (when I'm in verbose mode so I can see what's going on) it hangs after saying something about the frame buffer.

Any ideas? I'm using version 1.11 of the boot-132 CD, and the leopard install disk is 10.5.6.

Author Update #1 @chiangku 2009-07-01

I tried the iAtkos v7 disc, now instead of hanging on attempting to install, the system automatically reboots after loading the kernel.
