How to install Leopard on ASUS X50RL

**tool-nes** · 01-12-2009 06:57 PM

I tried to install Leopard on my ASUS X50RL laptop, and I can´t get it to work

I tried with the "XxX Ideneb 10.5.6 Leopard osx86" boot-dvd.
I think the reason why I can´t get it to work is because I don´t set it up right when I try to customize.

Anyone that can help to set this up the right way?
Please help...?

I dunno this distro but try installing a patched kernel like voodoo or speedstep, check if your video card is there and good luck

I don`t know what you mean by patched kernel?
I have tried to install with voodoo kernel in the install dvd..

Do you know of another distribution that should work better?

I tried to install osx86 with kalyway now.
Now I got a different message..
During the installation I got a message that told me that the installer could not validate the content in the "Essentials"-package.

Anyone that can tell me what that means?
What could I have done wrong?
