Hi All,

I have installed the darwinx86-801.iso.gz file on a PIV system.
This came up just like a regular UNIX box.
I then downloaded the mactelbase.tar.rar (via torrent) and extracted
It unto the system with the command "tar xpf /mactelbase.tar -C /"
After rebooting, I now get the "Still waiting for root device" error.

I found a reference on the net to the fact that the files should not
Have been extracted to the root / partition. It was also mentioned
That at the moment, it is impossible to get the OS X GUI to show up
On this install?

Opinions and installation help/ideas please. Thank you.
