Hi Everybody 
I am currently a linux user, however I wish to try out MacOS X... so I bought a MacOS X 10.4.7, and tried to install the OS... however theres a kernel panic error or some diffrent error, its always varies between the two...
the first main error (kernel panic) seems like this
the other, more simple error message is
I would guess that its a problem of missing file on the DVD, but how is it possible if it actually loads 50% of the times without this error? furthermore the DVD is prefectly clean, so it cant be dirt
I Would guess its a Hardware problem so heres some basic info on my OS
AMD Athlon XP 3000+ (3GHZ)
256 DDR RAM * 2
250 GB HDD
p.s.
I tried to run the Same DVD file on a diffrent computer, with simular statistics (AMD Athlon XP too but its 2.8 GHZ and the Current OS is Windows rather then Linux on the problematic computer) installed on it and the installer worked fine so the problem is not the DVD. I though that it might be a problem with Linux-Mac dual boot collisioin so i formatted the whole computer again no luck
EDIT:
The problem might be in GRUB loader (linux boot loader that is installed automaticly and cannot be uninstalled, only overwritten by other boot loaders) however, since its not uninstall able i cannot see if its true, and i dont know how to install a diffrent boot loader without installing a full OS (which is pretty useless). so if someone might have idea's on how to test it out it would be appriciated.
If none of you can tell me how to fix the problem, can you atleast tell me what the problem is or what does Kernel panic and all the rest of the errors mean
