I'm not going to be able to help you, I just thought I'd let you know that we have a similar thread started at Insanely Mac and are going to try to figure it out also... I've tried a bunch of distro's and have yet to figure out whats the problem... Keep me posted!


Post from Insanely Mac:

However, I can't seem to get past the first few seconds of the startup sequence.... I've tried AHCI mode and IDE from the Bios. I have tried booting every one with and without -v & -x. I've burnt each disc twice at 4X. (Slowest I could.)

iDeneb 10.5.5 v1.3 (Boots to "Loading HFS+ file:[/System/Library/Extensions.mkext] from 4230480." then freezes until I press a key. Then the computer restarts.),

Kalyway 10.5.2, (Makes it 100 lines down quite quickly, then restarts computer.)

Leo4all 10.5.2 v2, (Makes it 7 lines down then restarts computer.)

Leo4all 10.5.2 v3, (Makes it 100 lines quite quickly down, then restarts computer.)

JaS 10.4.8, (Boots to "Loading HFS+ file:[/System/Library/Extensions.mkext] from 4230450." Then the computer restarts.)

iAtkos 10.5.1.(Boots to "Loading HFS+ file:[/System/Library/Extensions.mkext] from 4230450." Then the computer restarts.)

Zephyrot 10.5.2 v2 and LawlessPPCPhenomLeo and iPC 10.5.6 apparently also do the same thing!

I can't find any information in the forums or wiki about support for the processor or video card. I've looked all over, there was mention of the processor on the Portuguese portion of the forums but Google Translate didn't help much. I don't know much about programing or Macs in general but I am trying. If I could get help to at least get computer to install and boot, I could probably figure out the kexts for the other peripherals myself (Hopefully! ).

I tried to be as thorough as possible on this information! Thanks for the help guys!
