Question OSX on AMD 780 chipset ?

After 2 whole days trying to get osx installed on my PC, I begin to wonder if that's possible


I used 2 different distro.

# First with ideneb 1.3 ( 10.5.5), always got "still waiting for root device"
I changed my sata driver config to AHCI, and got kernel panic ( a few different error, i can't remember exactly)
Tried every combination of boot options, still nothing
One time, JUST ONE TIME, i reached the installation screen ( with the language choosing board ) , but my mouse and keyboad didn't work- i used -x -v -f. I never could do that again until now

#with Iakos v7 (10.5.7), still the same problem, changed to AHCI, used the option rd=diskXsY,
all i got is some kernel panic!
And never reached the installation screen like ideneb ( too bad)


So any suggestion ? Or someone can comfirm that my chipset is out of the list ?

Please help!




My PC specs:

CPU: AMD X2 5000+
Ram: 2 GB
Main: ECS A 780 GM-A ( uses AMD 780 chipset )
Graphic card: Msi 4670 ( uses ATI radeon 4670 processor)


Thanks in advance
