iAtkos on Asus P5Q Deluxe - Error messages with -v; can anyone help?

hello all,

I am running an Asus p5Q Deluxe with the Juzzi Modified Rom 2001.

I have installed iAtkos (this very second!) and have repaired the permissions and rebooted the machine with -v

In Yellow there are failed details and they read as thus:

Still waiting for root device

When I leave the iAtkos disc in the dvd drive, it just starts the installer up again.

Can anyone shed some light on what i'm doing wrong, or overlooking?

Sorry to be so thick!

(all drives set to AHCI, and ACPI 2.0 and ACPI support enabled in bios.)

(I have tried to boot with Boot123 but with the same result, however under boot123 the system still fails to see my OSX retail disc!)

Have you tried booting using in Safe Mode? Try

Code:

-v -f -x

What options did you select for your Chipset?

This is generally one of three things:
1. If you are using PATA (The old IDE Ribbon Cable Drives) you will want to make sure that the drive you are installing to is set to MASTER via the jumpers and the actual drive itself. Id also recommend that you have the drive on the cable's first connector.

2. If you are using SATA drives try going into the BIOS and changing the SATA Mode from AHCI to IDE.

3. Chipset related. If your booting the install disk and are getting this issue and the first two do not fix the problem its probably chipset related. In the case of SATA, some motherboards have more than one SATA control and so one or the other may be compatible. You can check your user manual or online to see if this is the case and then plug into the appropriate connector.
