By pure luck, I just found a way to boot the "still waiting for root device".
I know that OSX is installed on disk0s2, but the rd=disk0s2 from the bootloader did not help.
Try this:
Choose dvd as the boot device/Bios.
Boot DVD installation disk+when DVD bootloader asks if I want to proceed to OSX installation, or press f8 for boot options,press f8, and at prompt I typed rd=disk0s2.
OSX boots.
On next reboot, HD boot fails, "still waiting for root device".Boots only through DVD bootloader.
no solution for 3495 wireless chip? dont really want to spend any much hardware time on this , and I am using a TX47GP and did u guys rebuild the image?
maybe if you use 10.6.0 retail DVD and iboot bootloader to install, you can get a kernel panic. if this happens... you can boot in safe mode with "-x -v"
it works fine for me.
and if you want wifi... you have to change the intel pro pcie card
