How did you do the Update from 10.5.2 to 10.5.3? Did you use Zephyroth's ASU?

These are kind of weird errors... The first has to do with the "enhanced USB" driver (USB 2.0). Then it looks like it finds your 2 SATA drives - and a few lines later, looses them. (After the "Firewire unable to determine" message, the bootloader is doing a LOT of stuff, mostly having to do with the "boot device" (startup hard drive). This is where the "Still waiting for boot device" error message generally occurs. Yours is either stalled there or caught in a neverending loop...) So, it looks like some of your .kexts really got screwed up if all this was working properly before the "update"...

Running both 10.5.8 and 10.6.4 on my stinking AMD/ATi machine...

everything was ok before(10.5.2).
i tried ti modify only with asu = kernel panic
so
i tried with kalyway combo update + 9.3 kernel and that worked, but at reboot i have this (neverending loop)

looks like you're re-installing 10.5.2 - I don't think you'll get this fixed otherwise...

I never updated to the 9.3 kernel for my last install. instead I just updated to the 9.4 kernel and ran 10.5.3 for a while until i updated to 10.5.4. Have you tried that?

do you actively use Firewire? booting with <b>-s</b> and <b>rm</b>'ing (removing) the Firewire kexts, then <b>reboot</b> to <b>-f</b> for a forced reloading of all kexts so it recognizes the missing ones... IMO if you don't use a kext, why let your system search... get rid of it (of course you should always make a backup so you can copy it back if you've made a mistake).

Disable Firewire (1394) in your BIOS.
