MacOS 10.5.5 iDeneb 1.3 Way - Long boot time...

Hi I've recently followed the tutorial page about the iDeneb 1.3 way of installing MacOSx86 on my G1S but I'm quite disapointed by the time it take between the beginning of the bootloader process and the login windows…
About 1min and 10sec : 40sec on the grey apple loading screen and then 30 other seconds on the blue screen before the login windows pop's up…

I've choosen the iDeneb way because It seemed to be really less long and difficult than the kalyway way on the other wiki post…I just had difficulties with the audio driver because the wiki page redirect to a broken post without link to download files that is needed, but except that It's a quite good working distribution for our G1S once it's fully loaded…(except cam, battery time?,standby…)

I had a talk with a guy on another forum who have installed the kalyway 10.5.2 distribution and who told me he didn't have to do any customization during the install process just click "next" and it's working properly no audio driver installation needed just had to install nvidia drivers and that's all…And he also talked about a very fast loading compared to me…about less than 30sec to have macOS loaded !

I'm wondering about reinstalling his way, but i'm just hesitating with this older release without last apple updates (he told me he installed the 10.5.6 update but keyboard and mouse didn't work anymore…so he came back to his previous install)

Do you have same feedback as me with the iDeneb 1.3 (and maybe solution to my problem?)and what about the other way to install MacOS on G1S…
The other guy told me he tried several distributions but kalaway 10.5.2 was the only one that worked "out of the box"…
Do you have feedback with iDeneb 1.4, or other distrib than the wiki ones?

The wiki doesn't seem to be really up to date, and especially with really usefull and basic tips such as keyboard layout…

thanks for your answers

Hey moustache,
I installed the way it said on the wiki and have pretty fast load times. Didn't have an issue getting video and sound running (though the webcam is a bit screwy). What media are you installed on; usb stick, external hd, internal hd? I'm on an external USB drive and it runs silky smooth.
