Cant install Leo4all

I have been workin at this for hours of surfing the net. While trying to install leo4all i get a panic "nsf_boot_init failed with 6\n...". It doesnt seem to matter what I type in after pressing f8. I have seen this issue posed on a few boards but no one has found an answer. Any help is greatly appreciated. I would love to get this running. I have read great things about leo4all but have yet to be able to see them. Thanks!!!!

sounds like the bootloader isn't functioning with the install Disc. I would use Transmac to redo the disk. If you have access to another OS X installation, there is a great guide for installing chameleon to an install DVD over at http://chameleon.osx86.hu/.

As of now I do not have another mac available to me. I tried using iATKOS 4 and I atleast got to the disk utility and my hard drive was not found. Peeking around online I came to the conclusion that there was a driver issue with my sata drive. If you have any input on that I have no issues using iATKOS. I have an AMD dual core processor so that kind of limits the disco that I can use.

If you can find the driver for your chipset, you can use Transmac in windows to insert the driver in to your Install DVD in the /System/Library/Extensions/ folder; the only drawback is that once you install it this way, it only places it in the Install DVD and not to the Installer portion so the DVD can boot but the newly installed OS cannot. You then need to reboot into the Install DVD and insert the file into your /System/Library/Extensions/ folder on the OS drive and you're home free.
