I have used the following image to install SL

SnowOSX Universal 10.6 v3.5 pc distro (download torrent) - TPB

I am stuck at the white apple logo screen. Tried to boot using -v and it shows the following screen.

My hardware configuration is ...

Mobo: Gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L
Processor: E7400
Video Card: NVidia 8600GT
Monitor: BenQ G2410HD

Can you guys please help me fix this...

Thank you.

same exact spot mine freezes at with this distro. I guess its off pickup some dual layer dvds and try retail with a separate loader.

Well, I tried the empire efi boot disks, the regular install gets memory allocation errors, and the "fixed" version for people who get the memory allocation error dosent work either, im tired of wasting time dicking around trying to install sl...
