Still not working. The DVD drive is accessed randomly and, in particular, when trying to sleep.

 

I built this with my retail family pack 10.5.1 disk. Have you been using a different disk in your build?

 

I removed the IDE kext, deleted Extensions.mkext, rebooted, disabled IDE in BIOS, and now it doesn't freeze in display sleep mode after a certain period of time.

 

Stay tuned for my Saturday guide release. Just do a fresh install, then life should be good :D

Well, then you'd need virtual machine drivers. I know PCWiz has done some work with virtualizing OS X, but it's never 100% perfect because there just aren't the proper drivers or hardware acceleration for it. Dual drives would be the best way to go. Remember you can use VMware Fusion inside OS X!

 

It will be out next Saturday. I'll put a link here in the thread as well as in the first post.

 

Thanks Separate Drives it is .. I searched for a few hours but know body seems to have a 100% effective solution for VMware yet.. See ya Saturday...

Hi, Weaksauce.

Pack works fine - i changed only to 899a for sound.

BootCD doesn´t work for me because of the nasty GFX-Card.

So i´ve installed from a running OSX System, used the 10.5.5 Combo Update, installed KEXT from Pack, setup Chameleon for Boot and after booting to OSX (with F8 and "-x") i applied the EFI String.

I did the System Updates from Apple - everything looks, works fine (DVD Player,Logic,Safari, Shutdown+Restart+Sleep).

DSDT is the only thing i need to apply next - but i have no time left this weekend... maybe Sunday afternoon ;-)

edit:

Some time left... here´s my DSDT.

v.1.0.zip

 

HAVE A NICE WEEKEND

The strings I include in the package are there for convenience and do not encompass ALL cards. You just need to find a 10.5.5 driver for your card. This thread has one:

Hi weaksauce,

I tried a fresh install following the guide, and after installing the 10.5.5 update I ran the ATI driver installer from the thread you recommended. I didn't add any graphics kexts from OSX86Tools. After reboot, still no go. Did I do something wrong? What else can you recommend?

Thanks a lot.

Something interesting happened:

I booted into single mode with -s, and exited single mode without doing anything. The system booted normally after that, and now works perfectly. Can't figure why, but that fixed the problem.

 

This was by far the easiest and most functional install of OSX86 I've ever done. Weaksauce, your guide is excellent. Thanks a lot.

Just a quick status update:

 

It looks like I may not make it for release today, but it will definitely be ready within the next few days. The software package is done and works great (1-Click Installer thanks to PCWiz), but I'm still working on the guide (only halfway done at 33 pages so far!!).

 

Stay tuned for great things :D

was confronted by 2 errors:

 

1. "EBIOS read error: Error 0x01 Block 16432736 Sectors 64."

2. "Error encountered starting the computer: pausing 5 seconds."

 

After which booted to leopard installation but i got to abandon the installation because did not realize that PS/2 mouse was not supported so now got to get an USB mouse.

 

I am basically using your final draft to do the installation perhaps i will play around with this until you make the release.

 

Regards.

Yeah just wait for the new BOOT-132 guide, it's very thorough. I'm always behind on these releases lol. But better perfect and complete than a half-hearted attempted right? :censored2:

I'm taking a break for awhile...I hit 50 pages and my wrists are killing me lol. Very, very in-depth. The complete A-Z guide for the DS3L ;)

 

Sounds like it will be well worth waiting for...

 

I have used your Leopard Soup guide to install 10.5.4 on my son's Hackintosh which works fine thanks to you.

I am having this problem after I wake from sleep. When I Wake, I get all of these disconnected errors from my external drives. all of my network drives are unmounted, and my bluetooth mouse is disconnected.

 

On my macbook pro it does not do this.

 

What can I do?

Upgrade to the BOOT-132 method when I post it later this week :wink2:

PS/2 is fully-supported in my BOOT-132 package. A PS/2 device can also wake the computer from sleep (USB input devices will not do that on the DS3L, "energy saving" feature I guess).

 

OK. What i am planing to do is to play around so that i can prepare my system for your final release of your guide.

 

When the installation comes to the Leopard installation the PS/2 mouse were not available for use so i had to make use of my USB keyboard to navigate through the installation.

 

Do you think i i should install PS/2 Kexts after the installation?

 

Thanks man.

 

Regards

I tried your "boot132" guide for a fresh install and all went almost well:

 

here are the problems:

 

At the first registration screen, it come back to the welcome video after "do you want to transfer data from another machine?" (or something like that) that I solved booting in safe mode and touch /var/db/.AppleSetupDone

 

When all was done the USB aren't working if you plug/unplug devices while the system is running (they work if you keep them plugged during boot or if you delete te extension.mkext) so I had to install a patch that I found somewhere here in the forum.

 

Using EFIStudio instead of OSX86Tools is probably a best option to have the string for the video card and the rest written to com.apple.Boot.plist because it merged by itself the strings: you can even add the audio string and avoid HDAEnabler and ALCinject.

 

I had to add Psystar's OpenHaltRestart.kext for the machine to shut down properly

Cool Weaksauce and PCWiz!

 

How difficult will it be to support other motherboards? I've have Gigabyte's EX38-DS4 motherboard and used PCWiz's guide to install Kalyway OSX. Even though his tutorial didn't support my motherboard it was fairly close to my motherboard... I just had to tweak a few things.

 

Thanks!

 

John

Easy - it supports Plugins :whistle: You just need to make a DSDT for your board and then gather the kexts. Real easy.
