iPC OSx86 Leopard 10.5.6 problems
Got an spare PC I thought would try the new iPC OSx86 Leopard 10.5.6 Intel AMD SSE2 SSE3. (PPF1 and 2 have been applied to the img)
As per instructions I choose the Voodoo Kernal as my CPU has SSE2 but selected nothing else (no chipset listed same as video card no there) Install went perfectly, on the reboot I did the -f to make sure kexts loaded fine after that nothing happens. Checked forums and was mentioned to use the flag -f -x -v cpus=1 which I did and all I get is it stopping at "Still waiting for root device" thank you MOBO: Abit IC7(-G) ~ Intel i875P CPU: Intel P4 3.2ghz Prescott D0 SSE2~3 RAM: 2GB Nanya DDR PC3200 (512mb x4) GRAPHICS: Sapphire ATi Radeon X1950 Pro (7280 - 1002) (RV570) LAN: 3Com 3C905CX-TX-M PCI AUDIO: Disabled for now DRIVES: Maxtor 6Y120L0 120GB IDE OPTICAL: AOpen DVD 1648/AAP IDE |

Try changing the SATA mode in the BIOS from Native to Combined
[EDIT] Personally I turn off anything else that im not using. Like the Onboard FAKE RAID & Floopy. I use my firewire but if you don't turn it off.

Disabled all parts in bios not needed (sata/sound/serial, etc)
Same install with Voodoo kernal and no video (device ID not there) and chipset. Ticked ps/2 keyboard only. Used same boot codes and didn't get the root device problem, boots to a blue screen with black cursor and stops, seems to be getting better.

@benton
There is a workaround for that one. You can replace seatbelt.kext 10.5.6 with the previous version from 10.5.5. It is an option during iPC install and so should be on the disk. Alternatively you could download the "10.5.5 single" update off of Apple's site and use Pacifist to extract it.
