LAPTOP MODEL: Toshiba U205-S5002
GOAL: MBR Installation via usb flash drive
PROBLEM: White Screen of Death(?)
ABOUT MY LAPTOP:
CPU: Core Duo T2300E
MEMORY: 4GB 5400
VIDEO: GMA950 (27a2)
CHIPSET: ICH7 (27c4)
HDD: 250GB SATA HDD
WIRELESS: DELL 1490 WIRELESS
LAN: INTEL PRO VE/100 ( 8086-1092 )
AUDIO: AD1981HD (VEN_8086&DEV_27D8)
USB: (VEN_8086&DEV_27C8; 27C9, 27CA, 27CB, 27CC)
I made a bootable usb flash drive using chameleon 2 rc3 + pc efi 10.5 boot file.
I restored the retail image to the drive.
I created my /e/e folder and this is where I run into some trouble.
The bootloader lets me pick my installation media but using -v or not, results in the same white screen of death.
Here is what I fed into my /e/e (32bit ONLY)
CPU: NOTHING
MEMORY: NOTHING
VIDEO: AppleIntelGMA950.kext, Natit.kext, AppleIntegratedFrameBuffer.kext, IOGRAPHICSFAMILY.kext
CHIPSET: IOATAFAMILY.kext (reported working)
HDD: NOTHING
WIRELESS: NATIVELY SUPPORTED
LAN: AppleIntel8255x.kext (reported working)
AUDIO: NOTHING
MISC: Disabler.kext, voodoops2controller.kext, voodoohda.kext,
voodoobattery.kext, fakesmc.kext (v2.0 for SL), IOAHCIBLOCKSTORAGEINJECTOR.kext,
ahciportinjector.kext, appleintelpIIxata.kext, ioatafamily.kext, jmicronata.kext, platformuuid.kext
I took all my kexts from trusted sources. I know I did the mbr edits properly and have a feeling this is related to video.
The attachment below my post contains the following all dumped from SLAX via usb flash drive:
1) virgin dsdt
2) lspci dumps
3) audio codec dumps

Any help would be appreciated.
UPDATE: after deleted appleintegratedframebuffer.kext from the installation media i was able to get to the installer
UPDATE #2: Only kext removed was AppleIntel8255x.kext as nothing helps me get LAN working. I'm stuck with wifi for now.
This is strange as despite this nic being a pain in the ass it would always work eventually.
Last piece of hardware to test will be a card reader (ids coming in a few).
NEW GOAL: Slim down /e/e and determine which kexts are actually required in /e/e (as i threw everything in there possible!)
Thanks,
Ox
