After downloading imgburn and burning the snowosx universal 3.5 at 4x write speed, still didnt make a difference. My system kept rebooting after loading system/libraries. It appears that I may be running out of distros. The only distro which boots and gets me to the language selection screen is ideneb 10.5.7, however, as i mention before, my mouse and keyboard freeze. I will try to find a fix for that and/or wait for ideneb to release their snow leopard distro.

I know Apple uses sata drives, on all of their computers, and I have also heard that you have a better chance of installing hackintosh if you have an IDE drive, so my question is this really true? I do remember than when I was able to install ideneb 10.5.5 on my amd dual core, I had and IDE dvd drive. Right now, my system has a sata drive. Any opinions/suggestions?

I think I'm making progress. I found a usb keyboard/mouse and booted off with ideneb 10.5.8 lite edition, changed bios to "ahci", use the following flgas busratio=20; cpus=1 and it worked. I got as far as creating partitions on the my free space but some reason I couldnt. Also, I want to research more as to what I need to do to be able to boot mac using grub, before going through with the installation. anyone has any suggestions as to what entries need to be added to grub.conf? thanks in advance.
