I was able to get to desktop using -x boot flag. Then i tried to open safari, it started showed a complete black window then i had a kernel panic again.
Something that i realized was there were no hdd icons on desktop, only cd icon. I opened my home folder via finder icon and saw that my disks (at the left pane) were all external type disk icons. I ran the system in AHCI mode btw. Any suggestions? Gigabyte EP45 DQ6, Nvidia 8800GTS 320MB (NV80), 4Gig Ram |

Did you run Kext Utility after you booted with -x?
Also, I think Snow Leopard by default doesn't show your drives on your desktop. I have it installed on my Macbook and I can only see my Volumes in Finder. |

Yes ... I can only see my 'external' drives/partitions ... which are the drives/partitions that I did not boot from.

Woohoo, this must be a breakthrough! After using KextUtility i could use SnowLeo about... ummm.. 2 minutes :P At least i got rid of the registration steps.
Btw my disks are green colored with little papercut men on them. What is this? And i cannot take screenshots using Cmd+Shift+4. It does not save the files at least on desktop. Then i tried a normal boot (without kernel flags) and Boom! KP right away.. I wanted to take my chances I think i need some Gigabyte spesific SL kexts, which will arrive in time Gigabyte EP45 DQ6, Nvidia 8800GTS 320MB (NV80), 4Gig Ram |

No luck here either m8 with x64.
The screenshots are probably related to safe mode (-x) Spotlight also doesnt work in safe mode (I think thats normal) Snow Leopard 10.6.7 Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3P Intel Q6600 @ 3Ghz Corsair CM2X2048-6400DHX Gigabyte HD5770 Silent Cell Samsung SyncMaster 2494SW ALC889a Creative T5400 5.1 Maxtor 380215AS Pioneer DVR-215D Presonus Inspire 1394 KRK Rokit 5 Wacom Bamboo One SL USB Guide => http://www.infinitemac.com/f57/guide...k-drive-t3705/ |

Alright
I still have the 64bit panics but 32bit seems to run fine (I'm writing this in x32) I noticed though that sys profiler lists CPU speed at 4GHz & FSB at 1,33. Is this another misspelling like we have with our leopard installs (fixed with osx86tool or smbios) or is this for real because it is in fact running at that speed then no wonder we're having kernel panics. Why not in 32bit then? well maybe because 32bit doesnt tax the system that much, I have no idea. I have the quad overclocked to 3GHz (333x9 ram divider 2,40 so 800 MHz) Any input on this lads? Thx Update: this is what CPU-X has to say about it.

I've notice that the Mac and Tools misreport my computer info in SL.
Not quite sure what is going on but some of it may be due to 'Turbo' mode (or whatever it called in your BIOS) or to the Tools not being optimized for SL. Other than that my build runs normally. Now that I have a stable 32 bit build I'm going to OC to see what she can do. Gigabyte EX58-UD5 - i7 920 @ 3.2 GHx - eVGA 8800GT Asus P5Q Deluxe - E8400 @ 3.6 GHz - Asus 7900GT iMac 2.2 GHz - 4 MB |

Alright an important update to note here:
32bit works but when I try to do another install within SL I get a panic in the installation process, mostly before it even starts installing files, sometimes even when deselcting printer files (in custom) So I suggest you guys try the same and report back. Conclusion so far on my rig: 32 & 64 bit are not stable.

Not here .... I've done a ton of SL installs from a SL 380 and have not had any problem installing once I was told to deselect all except the main program (you can't deselect it anyways ) from the customize screen.
32/64 bit 380 is rock solid and easy to install so I've been using it as my 'base' system. 32 bit 432 ... still out for testing 64 bit 432 .... haven't played with it yet. Gigabyte EX58-UD5 - i7 920 @ 3.2 GHx - eVGA 8800GT Asus P5Q Deluxe - E8400 @ 3.6 GHz - Asus 7900GT iMac 2.2 GHz - 4 MB |

Just did another reinstall from within Leopard, then trying another Snow Install from within Snow, same stuff, kernel panics when installing.
