okay, installed the mbr - if i press f8 it tells me that there is a installation of mac os x

but. if i want to start it there appears a screen which tells me in different languages that i have to restart... this happens all the time, should i use the bootfix?

It's not related to the bootloader.
The screen with 4 languages indicates a kernel panic.

What's your cpu ?
What's the kernel you choose during installation ?

i choose the newest one the 9.2 if i am not mistaken.
i have a 4400+ SSE3 AMD ATHLON X2 64

i did this: format the c drive, where is only one partition called "leopard".
after this is choose the drivers i want to install mrb and the latest kernal and stuff. then i installed it.
it was stuck at 1 minute left.
i rebooted choose my settings again installed and finished the installation. but had no success booting after....

Is there an advantage of GUID over MBR? I'm just curious. Thanks. : )

okay got it working, but i need the dvd to start which is weired....

what i did: installed it normally, at 1 minute left i just left the installation and didnt installed anything else. but i can boot in os x now.

problems i still have:

cant boot without dvd. - stops before booting anything, stops right now before cd screen normally appears. this is after the pc loads the ub icq and mulimedia and all other devices.
5.1 sound is not working. only 2.1 alc 850 here
mouse is somehow crap, using a logitec G5 which does not work perfect. any idears hear? i could use a ps2 adapter or sth? -> solved. there are drivers...
