Has anybody got Leopard to work on the MSI NF750 board? Ideneb v1.3 and 1.4 are the only ones that will boot to the installer, but after install the first boot gives the 'still waiting for root' error, and i have tried all the suggested solutions and nothing seems to work. Every other distro panics while trying to boot the install dvd.

System specs:
Board : MSI NF750 G55
CPU: AMD phenom 2 running at 3.2ghz (am3)
Ram: 4GB Mushkin Blackline enhanced 1333
GPU: MSI gtx260 ocv3 edition
hdd: Seagate 750gb ide (don't know much about it because it came out of my buddies internal hdd after he plugged the wrong power cord in and fried the adapter that made it an external)
