Good evening everyone. I've been attempting to install iAtkos S3 v2 on my system (specs in sig), and seem to have varying degrees of luck with overall progress.

To start:
I downloaded the iAtkos S3 v2 DVD and have been using it to attempt an OSx86 install. The problem I encountered is this: the CD would boot to the Chameleon bootloader - I could let the counter count down, or hit F8 for options. It seemed like no matter what I did, when I would try to boot to the OS X installer, the system would reboot.

So I moved on to attempting a hybrid method using the iBoot disks from tonymac in combination with the iAtkos S3 v2 DVD. iBoot seemed to work well - I could get to the OS X installer, partition and format my disk, choose install options, and get through the entire install process. The issue with this method is that when I would reboot, and try to boot from the new OS X install, I would get the "You need to restart your computer" message. When I would add the -x -v flags, the very last line listed my system uptime in nanoseconds.

After some more reading, I tried setting various boot flags and settings. Since I have started trying different flags, I found that I COULD boot to the OS X installer from the iAtkos DVD (without using an iBoot disk) if I set busration=22 cpus=1 -x. I completed the install, rebooted, and hit F8 for boot options at the Chameleon boot loader and set -x... but then all I got was the Apple logo and the black/white spinning wheel loading thing. I let it sit there for about a half hour before I decided to cut the power and try again. I restarted the computer, but this time didn't pass any arguments to the bootloader... and now I am back to the "You need to restart your computer" screen.

So, are there any suggestions? Am I going about things wrong?

Thanks in advance!

You should use another kernel. Best will be chocolate.kernel (it works for me) or legacy.kernel
P.S. My MB&CPU are the same.
