PLZ some one help me i been trying for the past 7 days. :'(:'(:'(:'(:'(:'(

hmm I got Leo4allv3 on my Dell Inspiron 531.. ok so you need to take out 2 sticks of ram otherwise it will freeze. or boot with the flag maxmem=2046 ;) Their is a bug with the nforce sata driver that wont let you use more then 3GB of ram.

thank you:) , but can i put the ram sticks back after the install ?

You can put it back in the ram but boot with maxmem=3072 or if it still freezes do maxmem=2048. :) You edit /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist
<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string>maxmem=3072</string>

thank you im going 2 try it .

last question will my full 4 gb ram work or only 2

Edit: I think the fix works on sata too. here is the fix: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.p...1&st=0&start=0

ok this time with leo v3 it installs perfectly , but when it restars and does the long text thing i get an error : unable to establish network connection : scuess ? :

with leo v4.1 get restart error screen ,

tried to install without network drivers or net work , but no use

with Leo4Allv3, after you install with the correctly customized install, does it allow you to boot to the Hard drive without the DVD in the drive? if so, during the boot countdown, enter the boot flag and this will take you to the single user mode (which looks strangely like Terminal :))

type the following: (you're going to enter a new password two times)
continue on:make sure you don't miss any spaces or punctuation. it is all there for a reason.

Now install chameleon. Then PM me for the updates as we cannot post the AMD updates on the forum.

i have 2 hit f8 to start that , i think . but i still get the same problem

it says passwd root is an ivalid comand

and rm -Rf Extensions.mkext

maby its the kernals? i only customize the drivers and leave everthing alone :)

strangly there is music playing in the backround.

That's actually a good sign, you're hearing the welcome movie, means it's booting fine but you have a problem with graphics.

Boot into single user mode by using the -s switch at boot then move the relevant video drivers to a safe place. When you reboot you should be able to see the movie and get to a desktop. The resolution will be crappy till you copy the drivers back and install something like NVkush or NVinject, etc.
