Hi,
i'm new to Macs. I used my gf's macbook several times and I feel really bad that I cannot answer any of her questions in regards to OS X.
I need to change the situation

wondering if it's possible to make it run on my machine:

AMD Phenom 9850 BE @ 2.9Ghz
ASUS Crosshair II Formula nForce 780a
G.SKILL 2x2GB DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500)
XFX GeForce GTX260
HT OMEGA STRIKER 7.1
Seagate 750GB SATA (winxp here)
Samsung 40Gb SATA (free)
Samsung 250Gb PATA (free)

when I first tried to run installation DVD i had errors with firewire.
turned it off in bios.
then I had problems with USB. It said that something's not happening in 5 secs. I unplugged all usb devices, but keyboard and mouse.

and after this line:
Extension "com.apple.driver.iTunesPhoneDriver" has no explicit kernel dependency; using version 6.0

if freezes and says:
Still waiting for root device.

i found somewhere that it's a problem with not recognizing SATA HDD. I tried running with all three, two and just one HDD. same problem.

then I found solution somewhere that I must have PATA DVD and HDD running on one cable. My DVD burner is SATA, so I borrowed one from my friend.

dvd - master, hdd - slave gave no changes.

dvd - slave, hdd - master added one more line:
Extension "com.apple.driver.iTunesPhoneDriver" has no explicit kernel dependency; using version 6.0
AppleUSBOHCI [0x6e36000]::CheckSleepCapability OHCI controller will be unloaded across sleep

and again :
Still waiting for root device.

my HDD is FAT32 with 100Gb in primary partition

any ideas?
