I managed to complete the install of iDeneb 1.6 10.5.8. After the install, it gives me that green check mark and says I have to reboot. After that I am stuck on what to do. After it restarts, I tried booting from HDD. When it does that, Chameleon starts and I have the option to choose osx. When I select it, the screen flashes white for half a second, and then reboots. Am I missing something? Im hitting my head on my desk now trying to figure this out.
To help in the trouble shooting:
During partitioning I chose Journaled...I made sure that it was MBR...I chose voodoo. I set my Bios to AHCI. Chose Apple atiATA, and seatbelt.
I dont know what else to do. If someone has encountered this situation before please do tell me how to actually boot osx from my hard drive.

jburr,
Have you tried any boot-flags. Try to use:
-v -xIf it starts to load but hangs on a particular line, post back.
