is this "image" 9a581 an install DVD or is it an already-installed image that you can use right after restoring (on a real mac that is)...
In order to get any Retail image working on an AMD hackintosh you need more than just the voodoo kernel since this doesn't have the ability to handle decryption. you need the AppleDecrypt.kext file for this... Also, when I use my retail install on a hackintosh I need the AppleSMBIOSEFI.kext file and chipset kext file for my motherboard.
