Hello, I am having lots of problems with Zephyroth's 10.5.2 for AMD.
First problem:
When I don't boot the DVD with -v or -x it appears an apple logo and it stays there forever...
Here is an image:
It doesn't have the loading circle as you can notice.
Second problem:
When I boot with -v it stays there forever, the last code it says in the black screen is:
ACPI_SMC_CtrlLoop : : iniyCPUCtrlLoop - pmCPUControl (PMIOCSETPSTATETABLE) returned 0x42fcf00
Here is an image:

check your bios settings, you may need to turn off the cool and quiet type acpi speed step system, don't worry though as it is software controlled now
but how do i turn it off, where do i need to go on bios?
under cpu setting, sorry you will have to look around a bit as all bios are different
but does it actually says ACPI? because /I have searched and I didnt find anything that sid ACPI
No for my amd its called cool and quiet, its next to the hypertransport settings
I use a X2 Dual Core not a laptop, but Im sure the turions will have something similar
Good Luck
I have an Acer Aspire 5520-5912 and I boot up the Leopard Install DVD and it goes through but when I want to partition my hard drive it doesn't detect anything. Can anyone help me with this issue. Thanks in advanced.

be aware that Mac OSX is NOT written for AMD processors, thus everything is Intel's way. =)

Have you installed recent ToH kernel (in the customize section of installer)? That one did enable Cool&Quiet for my Thurion TL-52
VyperX. Mac osx has been hacked by the osx86 community to work with AMD systems. And if you have the same A215 that I have, the only option you have comparable to the cool and quiet technology is the Dynamic Cpu setting. You should set it to limited.
It would seem as you are a bit new to the OSX86 project. Have you visited the Wiki? I think it may answer some of your questions.
A_DoNuT333, I didn't find anything about Dynamic Cpu setting, do you where is it, it is not in my BIOS so...?

Well I can tell you that in my bios settings it is under the "Advanced" tab in bios.
