Help with Chameleon boot-up...
I just wanted to find out how i can delay the startup time of chameleon bootloader? or better yet, instead of automatically booting up leopard if i dont press any keys, an option where it just waits for my input no matter how long i take?…

Look up if there is a com.apple.boot.* file in /Extra or if not copy the one from /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration to /Extra - within this file you should be apple to configure the time-out of your bootloader, if you set it to zero there shouldn't be a time out any longer.
PS. It's not MAC http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAC_address ↗ nor Mac http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macintosh ↗ it's just OS X.
