I there a wiki or something on installing Zephyroth's 10.5.2? I was able to install to a partition created on the HDD by Gnome Partition Editor. The partition was made primary and active, flagged in Terminal. The installer installs to it, but the computer won' boot to it. It keeps defaulting to Grub boot loader where I can boot Ubuntu 7.10 or Windows XP. I set up a separate HDD, and installed to it. Same situation. If I remove the first HDD, the computer can't get past the mobo splash screen, not even to the bios. I tried following several installation instructions found online. Nothing seems to help.

I had tried adding the Leopard partition to grub.conf [the same way I had added Windows XP], and when I boot there is the option to choose Leopard, but it still can't find it.
I was hoping someone would have put together a how-to for AMD using your installer. I'm not very proficient with cli and need my hand held.
