Have a question about my Msi Notebook.

Specifications :

Chipset : MCP79

Processor : t5800 (intel)

Video : 9300m 256 Mb

Audio : ACL662

Problem that i have is, that when i install the ideneb 1.5.1 and ideneb 1.6 snow leopard everything went fine, till he has to start for the first time. He is stuck at

Using 14417 buffer headers and 4096 clusters 10 buffer headers.

This are the things i have combined and tried :

Kernel : 9.7.0 Vanilla, Audio : ALC662, Chipset : AppleNforceATA (64bit), Video : Nvdarwim 256, Firewire Remover,

Changed the kernel allready to Voodoo, Allready leave the AppleNforceATA & all the other drivers.

He always installs the chameleon but i think that is how it has to be, I also installed the DSDT patcher, installed the ACPI/SSE2 fix. Anybody that has an idea what is hapening? I am already bussy with my 12'th install. About 6 hours later.

I also have insert the Kext files with Macdrive of an Tiger instalation, then he goes further but stops at an other error "ath_attach :devid 0x1c"

i'm out of luck and out of ideas. I am not so good in changing stuff, but read something about changing the DSDT file, but i changed the original ACPI files into the files i downloaded from a Tiger. So i think i do not have to change the DSDT.

Really need some help.

Kind regards Peter

PS : Also Tried : IATKOS V7i (this one crashes at the startup of the notebook), Kalyway 10.5.2 (this one gets stuck on a failure of de ACPI, Empire Efi with original OSX snow leopard dvd (Gets into the installer, but than tells me that it isn't possible to install on my pc)..
