when trying to install, it seems to find my hds but hangs with:
AppleNForceATA::scanForDrives found 1 units
AppleNForceATA: Nvidia nForce MCP61 Serial ATA by MeDevil (CMD 0x9f0 CTR 0xbf0 IRQ 23 BM 0xdc00)
AppleNForceATA::scanForDrives found 1 units
AppleNForceATA: Nvidia nForce MCP61 Serial ATA by MeDevil (CMD 0x970 CTR 0xb70 IRQ 23 BM 0xdc08)
AppleNForceATA: Nvidia nForce MCP61 Serial ATA by MeDevil (CMD 0x9e0 CTR 0xbe0 IRQ 23 BM 0xc800)
AppleNForceATA: phy connection failed. status=0x00000000
AppleNForceATA::scanForDrives found 0 units
Still waiting for root device

googling a bit, i found out, that MeDevil's kext should work on my board, as in http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=77071 UPDATE 31-dec-2007 it is listed in the working sata chipsets (0x03f610de). so i would like to know, if it isn't this version of MeDevil's kext that's included on the dvd.
my specs:
asus m2n-vm dh
amd athlon 64 X2 4800+
samsung SP2504C 250gb sata hd
samsung HD252kj 250gb sata hd
samsung SH-S183L sata dvd
i already tried disabling nforce lan, fw and jmicron sata ports to exlude them to be the source of the problem.

anyway, thanks alot to all who are doing so great work to provide leo to the community!
