hello, just got my copy of LawlessPPC dvd, pop it , and i got this error of : still waiting for root device..

it's about my HDD right ?

this is my system :

AMD Athlon X2 BE 5000
J&W RS780UVD-AM2+ (780G chipset) http://www.jwele.com/motherboard_detail.php?225 (with SB700)
1x WDC 320gb SATA II
1x SEAGATE 250GB IDE
1x LG DVDRW IDE
Geforce 9600GSO 384MB

i tried with 1 HD frst (the sata one) , trying AHCI & Native IDE but still got "still waiting for root device"

then i tried with only IDE HD but still got the same error

is there any exception for DVDRW & my IDE HD on the same cable ?
or should i use my SATA HD for better performance?

yes, i've tried with -x , but still no luck.
at first i thought it was a USB error, because the last message was : "AppleUSBOHCI ... bla bla bla ... OHCI controller will be unloaded across sleep"

but then comes along "still waiting for root device"

any help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks
