| LawlessPPC Phenom & AMD 10.5.4 Beta Release Discussion “Let's see, if it's a BIOS related thing, I have nothing but the base settings enabled.

I've now re-installed it on a freshly formatted partition 3…” | Leopard 10.5 | 2008-07-26 91,699 dossier reads |
| LawlessPPC Phenom & AMD 10.5.4 Beta Release Discussion “Nope, doesn't look that worked either... I'm still getting the grey screen with a slashed circle.

| LawlessPPC Phenom & AMD 10.5.4 Beta Release Discussion “Well, that's why I'm re-trying… I started the install somewhere around 2 AM and I was quite tired, so I didn't notice the customize button, which I'm now doing.

| LawlessPPC Phenom & AMD 10.5.4 Beta Release Discussion “LOL, well, I thought that this distro would work, and it installed without a hitch, but now, when I go to boot the machine, I get the "Still waiting for root device" message.

| LawlessPPC Phenom & AMD 10.5.4 Beta Release Discussion “I'm seeding too, and I have a pretty good up speed imo for an "american" broadband connection. 60 kb/s is what I limit it to though, since I need to be able to still use my internet shared amongst 5 people.” | Leopard 10.5 | 2008-07-26 91,699 dossier reads |
| LawlessPPC Phenom & AMD 10.5.4 Beta Release Discussion “Thanks for the release.
