Well after a full successful iATKOS install, i updated to 10.5.8 and no worky I backed up my Seatbelt.kext, VoodooHDA, Graphics Drivers, and my kernel.. But no matter what kernel i choose i get stuck into a boot loop (9.7.0 Qoopz) Any ideas? I no longer have the iATKOS disc.. i gave it back to my friend.. I have an iPC disc, I can see and edit my hardrive in Windows, and I can get the Chameleon screen.

System.kext/Kernel version mismatch?

Like Scififan said, try Darwin 9.8.0 with the system.kext from the 10.5.8 update. Or restore the old system.kext from 10.5.7 and the 9.7.0 kernel.
