I tried using the Boot-123 method with my Retail Leopard but learned quickly my hardware isn't new enough for that to work. I've read a lot of stuff on installing iPC in these forums and it seemed like the best destro to try. Outside of the Voodoo Kernal, what drivers/settings should I select to make this install and run correctly?

Installed the OS several times now, using many different chipset combos. Each time it hangs, saying it's waiting for the root device. I'm gonna assume this is a chipset issue. The OS does install without issue.
Kinda at a loss here.
