Ok, here's what happened when I booted with -v to see what was causing it to freeze.
First, I re-installed and only selected 9.5.0 Voodoo Kernel, and MCP67 Chipset, nothing else.
Next, I then rebooted with the "-v" also tried "-v idlehalt=0" , also tried "-v cpus=1", each one resulted the same problem...
"waiting for root"
and it wouldn't go any farther. So I am taking this error as it's not finding my HDD upon re-boot after installing the OS??
If there are any suggesting as to what to do next, please say, I am open to anything to try.
BTW: You guys are awesome in your help and patience!
