Question XFX Mobo w/ Phenom Crash

Hello, im very new to the OSX86 scene.. have had a ibook for awhile and wanted to use OSX as a primary OS.. but im running into issues

Currently trying distro -> iDeneb 10.5.6

Mobo ~ XFX nForce 750a AM2+ 1066 Mhz DDR2 8GB SLI - MDA72P7509

Processor ~ AMD Phenom X4 9550

Ram ~ 4GB DDR2 800

HDD ~ 1x 700 GB SATA (Win XP 64) 1x 80 GB (Primary) IDE (Mac OSX) 1x DVD Burner (Secondary) IDE

Grphx - Evga e-Geforce 9800 GTX

Bios - American MegaTrends

Sound - Azalia

Network - Something nForce?

Well ive gone through the grueling process of installing several times, before I tried
just straight through without customizeing and all I got was a grey screen that went no where.. Second time around I searched around forums over the web, and found something about the kernel for sse3 and the amd patch, aswell as something for the ram.. but now I get "Still waiting for root device" when I use -v (Without -v it just shows a cross on the grey screen above the loading icon).. Atm im trying from scratch again.. thinking it may be something wrong with the partition, I havent tried the cable select thing yet.. but I doubt its that because ive toyed with that already.. (Also ive disabled lan and audio in the bios)

Any help would be appreciated, the installs are long and grueling and its driveing me insane
