I've tried it a couple times and keep getting stuck at the grey apple loading screen after first boot.
I'm running:
- Intel Q6600 Dual Core 2.4 Ghz processor
- ATI Radeon Sapphire x1950 512MB Video Card
- FoxConn G33m03 motherboard (I think, anyway. This is what I read comes stock on this model)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

the FoxConn G33m03 has the Intel G33 + ICH9 chipsets so a Kalyway 10.5.2 install should do the trick... otherwise iAtkos should still offer the proper chipset kexts...
If you want.... boot using the boot flag "-s" and then remove the problem (video) kexts with
Code:
/sbin/mount -uw /
cd /System/Library/Extensions/
rm -Rf GeForce*
rm -Rf ATI*
rm -Rf NVDA*
cd ..
rm -Rf Extensions.mkext
reboot
reboot using the boot flags "-v debug=0x100" and let me know how it goes.
we'll need to reinstall video again later but this should get you into the system.
