Alright, its been several months and I've yet to quite figure out how to make this work on this budget computer.

Basic system information is in my signature.

Thus far I have tested out the most recent versions of iDeneb, Lawless, and Kalyway for my processor (AMD) in VMware workstation, but continually end up at a "still waiting for root device" message when using basic flags on initial install of the virtual machine (if someone can help me get this working, a separate HDD is going to be set aside for leopard).

The single internal drive is SATA. I'm an intermediate windows user, but have only used leopard working in a studio on Logic Pro and Final Cut. I'm a complete n00b to mac emulation.

If you all need screenshots of the flagged install on VMware I'll be glad to post.

Which ones have you tried out on the actual hardware and how did they fail?

Whether or not they work in VMware is irrelevant...
