I'd like to run Mac OSX on my PC. Some weeks ago, i bought a MacBook Pro and now i'm addicted to the OS.
I have tried 2 different releases, at first Time iAtkos V7. That failed totally, after reading a lot in this forum and other sites, i thought that i have found the right release for my setup. Which was Leo4All-10.5.2, the installation runs fine, but when I try to boot, it crashes with a kernel panic. During the installation progress I think I have selected the right drivers.
Here is my Setup:
MB: Asus M2N32 SLI Deluxe
CPU: AMD X2 5000+
GC: Nvidia GeForce 7950 GT
RAM: Kingston ValueRAM 4x 1GB DDR2 PC2-6400
Chipset: Nvidia nForce 590 SLI
Audio: SoundMAX ADI AD1988B
HDD: Western Digital 500GB 7200RPM SATA-300
Any tips and/or suggestions.

thanks for your answer. After reboot i booted with -s in Single Usermode and have done this:
/sbin/fsck -fy
/sbin/mount -uw /
./RemoveVideoAfter typing exit the boot process continues. The boot went well, but I have no access to the LAN and no Videocard was found.
Now I need help to install a driver for LAN and Video. My Systemspecs are in the first post.
P.S.: Sorry for my horrible english, I am from Germany
now my WLAN is working and a few boot Problems are also done. The last Problem is, that I can't change my Screen Resolution. I made it through this Tutorial and have done everything.
