don't know how to fix it.. PLEASEEEEE HELP

FiNALLLLLy
I got past the ERROR....

as you Said... I played with the IDE/SATA drivers in the iATKos v7 customization & Selected INTEL SATA/IDE driver....

And lo! it went past the "still waiting for Root device"



But then the boot stopped at a blank BLACK SCREEN... GoDDD Damn....

I booted with -V flag... also tried -x (safe mode) but it never reaches anywhere. Any ideas. please...



P.S.: I tried to delete NVIDIA drivers but I cannot even reach the -s mode. Black screen Everywhere.

My problem is that after using the -v command my pc just restarts now i have read that "This probably means the kernel by the dvd as default is not combatible with your CPU, you can especify different kernels located into the dvd and try them to boot the dvd", now i dont really understand what to do?.
Thanks .

Edit: also here are my pc specs:
Intel Core 2 Quad q8200
4GB DDR2 RAM
Intel G45 Chipset or ATI HD 4890 in pci express slot
using Everest apparently my mobo is named Dell Studio 540 the same as the pc.

iATKOS v7 is running smooth on my msi u100, had only to install correct gma950 drivers, the provided drivers in the dvd didnt work out of the box, but everything else is running great, only thought is about updating to 10.5.8, i know the sleep problem and sleepenabler.kext can fix it but i don't wanna mess with it, 10.5.7 is great!

NVidia 9600GT 1MB

I have successfully installed iATKOS v7 on a dual boot PC with a Gigabyte mobo - everything works well with the exception of the video card (Nvidia 9600GT 1MB) which limits my resolution to 1024x768x32 ... any suggestions on what is the easiest way of fixing this .. I have a monitor capable of displaying 1360x768x32 and would like to acheive this resolution.

I have modified the .plist without success.

i downloaded iATKOS v7 via tpb the checksums are as follows

CRC32: CCC9A803
MD5: 6395BE5253F53F716ED042DB1DD599F3
SHA-1: 4712B9A9354E3591974CFD3C6A453CEC1157E5A5

is this the right values?

if so why when i burn the dvd there's only 480kbs worth of files written?

i used IMGBurn if that helps?

iAtkos v7 doesn't boot

Thanks for the great work...

Installed iAtkos...installation was very smooth.

But after that it doesn't boot....it shows a blank screen with a binking cursor.

System Hardware is

Intel Core 2 Dou 2.2 ghz
Intel 945 gcnl motherboard.
160 gb seagate sata hard disk.

There is no graphics card...i think it will have in built in it.
