You have a VIA chipset motherboard. Was there an option in "customizing" the install for VIA chipset support?
Here's some background: The "still waiting for root device" error generally comes from the OS not recognizing or properly supporting your motherboard chipset or the SATA interface. In the past many have gotten around the problem by using IDE drives for OSX. Much of that was supposed to be fixed in 10.5.2...
A pic of the "verbose" screen would probably have been more helpful - there are lines of text that may hold clues for the Guru's here to decipher...
Running both 10.5.8 and 10.6.4 on my stinking AMD/ATi machine...
