I tried booting with PciRoot=4, but it still hangs. My specs are: 2x Intel E5440 (2.8 GHz Quad-Core Xeon) (Currently) 2x 2GB Crucial ECC Matched DDR2 5300F 677MHz "Intel 5400 Chipset" - in Win7 "Intel ESR2 SATA AHCI Controler" - in Win7 nVidia Quadro NVS 290 Graphics Card - Dell OEM Ethernet is the onboard Broadcom 57xx Gigabit controler I have a PCI USB controller for a bluetooth module - both worked fine under SL. Thanks in advance.

HI guys! I have just upgraded my PC at home from a Dell Dimension 9150 running 10.6.3, to a Dell Precision T5400, with a view to running Lion (or later if it would work) from a retail copy of OSX using myHack. I had researched and this was one of the most compatible, budget, high-spec PCs I could find. It has 2x 2.8 Quad-core Xeons, 12GB EEC 5300F RAM, 500GB 7200 SATA HDD (GUID Partitoned) - for Mac OS Lion, 80GB 7200 SATA HDD (MBR) - For Win7 Unltimate. I use the Dell boot menu to select the Mac HDD at the moment, as the Windows drive is in SATA0. I was planning to switch them over once Mac was working corrently.. I have successfully INSTALLED myHack onto my Mac HDD, using an 8GB USB Pen Drive. I used the Generic myHack Extra install. Looking at the System Information within the Install Boot, the system is recognised as a Mac Pro 3.1, with most of the hardware identified - I am aware I need install VoodooHDA for the sound and a patched kext for the network, However, when I restart following the successful install, the boot hangs on "Still Waiting for root device". The line which shows the system retrieving the root device suggests the ACHI controller hasn't been identified, but I haven't changed it since the install. I have even tried booting the HDD from the USB drive's configuration of Chameleon, and a CD copy of Chameleon. Can anyone suggest why I can't get my system to boot? I have exhausted my 5-6 years experience with Hackintosh with this one... It just doesn't make sense. Thanks in advance
