So I plugged in an old IDE drive 80GB Western Digital. I re-ran the install and put it to that disk (no problem formatting or anything) added some custom kext from the menu that I think match my hardware, but I still get the IOWait error on verbose mode booting from any drive. The funny thing is that the one time I got it working off USB drive I could see all of my other media (DVD drive -with the install disk in, and my other 2 HDD SATA). How do I get past this error?

IOKitWaitQuiet() timed out wiating for kernel symbols

Can I patch your install dvd with an additional kext? What is your take on the situation?
