Try Hazard edition 10.6.2, it seems to work well with most AMD machine. Retail might be hard.



Moved to INTEL
i5-2500K / GA-Z77-DS3H / HD5770
OS X 10.7.4 all working!
Win 7 ultimate running on Parallel

Well hazards 10.6.2 apparently doesnt like my laptop. If I boot with -v I get to waiting for device with a uuid of something - something- something and it locks up. Any ideas?

I would start using -x -v -F cpus=1 and try it.
for my system to get it started, I used -x -v -F cpus=1 maxmem=4094 fsb=200000000

Well now it hangs up at mounting ntfs -3g. Saying its a read only filesystem... but if I remove the partitions on the drive and then try installing I get a com.apple.bootlist error

didn't see that you are installing on your laptop....have you made your partition that you are going to install ACTIVE?
