Leo4all worked really good for me, in fact i kind of regret switching to iPC.
also try removing some of your RAM (like have 1 x 2GB), and then putting it in if you get OSX to install successfully.

Try the XxX 10.5.6 image, it works perfectly. But there are no additional languages, if you need one you have to get it from another distro.

Since last time i tried using XxX and although it wouldn't install unless i used boot commands:
busratio=20 cpus=1 -v it installed and i did not choose any extras ie. the bare minimum as i thought i could install those later, but if i leave the install DVD in the drive it automatically goes to reinstall after installation already completed, so of course i removed the DVD and the boot screen came up but it wouldn't let me boot in, it just kept restarting (even trying the same boot commands to install eg. -x -v -f etc.) Can you suggest what i can do? ps. took out 4GB DDR3 and still keeps restarting.

i finally got an installation to complete but when i went to restart and boot into the installation it kept restarting, so i used busratio=24 cpus=1 fsb=133 -v -f and then it gave me the error "using 10485 buffer headers and 4096 cluster IO buffer headers"....
Can someone please help me with what kexts i need to replace and where i can get them from???

I've installed and booted iPC 10.5.6 voodoo 9.6.0 and Chameleon 1.0.11 on an i7 920 using busratio=20 every time.
But after you update to vanilla 10.5.7 you won't need that. |
