1. Load Optimized Defaults (Reboot)
2. Bios enable Sata Mode AHCI
3. AMD C1E (Disabled)
4. ACPI Suspend Mode -> S3
5. AMD Cool&Quite Disabled


But i hardly doubt u will get success out of your Graphicscard !!! if u even get in to the system with it


And Try again !

That did not work.
but i have a hunch. It kps around the time when all the installation files are copied to the HD and it starts extracting. Maybe there is something off about the driver. another thing, the atiati kext only detects my SATA dvd drive and the ATA hd is detected by something called AppleServerWorksATA maybe its the driver.

HD4550 works absolutely fine by adding 0x95401002 to ATI4600Controller.kext on 10.6.8 & 10.7

Missing Framebuffer will cause X2000 kext to panic on first boot - move it to some other folder from Single User mode or via Terminal from the installation system.

But this is not the problem here.

shakthi124, try some different Boot CD - I always had problems with the installation system running the latest legacy kernel builds, while using the old quoopz patch works best for installation.
My fav is still some pretty old Release of prasys's EmpireEFI: http://www.mediafire.com/?m5wzzwyfg4m - give it a try.

Even I am facing a problem during the main installation process.After the main installation process starts,the screen looks like this


And suddenly after this it throws me this kernel panic error



Please help me out as I guess i'm in the last stages of the installation.I selected no additional kernels except the default main 6 gb one.
My specs are as follows:
Amd phenom x3 8650 2.3ghz
Asus M2n68 amplus
transcend 2gb ddr2 800 mhz
dynet 2gb ddr2 800 mhz

Well after Install of OSx86 you should upgrade to 10.6.8 first, then you need to make your system bootable without the EmpireEFI CD, Upgrade your version of the Chameleon bootloader to an up-to-date build, and be sure to have GraphicsEnabler=Yes in your com.apple.Boot.plist

In case ATIRadeonX2000.kext causes a Kernel Panic add -s bootflag and move that Kernel Extension to some different folder - be sure to place it back later in order to have proper working gfx acceraltion.

Your graphic cards device ID needs to be added into Info.plist of ATI4600Controller.kext - this will make the framebuffer driver work (resolution change), what will prevent X2000 kext from causing a panic.

Maybe read through some of the Radeon HD topics like thise one: http://osx86.co/f36/support-for-some...emerged-t6326/
(I know it is not about your device, but it will help you getting an idea, how to handle this stuff...)

In case of using a SATA DVD drive, get an IDE one instead & be sure to have a proper Master / Slave configuration, no Cable Select - should fix your chipset driver problem.

so i did as you said and the following things happened.

1) on the bootloader it says "Graphics Card not supported!"

2) no resolution change and this is whats shown on system profiler.
