I found here http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...hl=ga-g33m+ds2r that is fully compatibile mobo. I tried Kalyway and Leo4All with succes.

Last weekend I tried to install from instalation dvd bundled with 24-inch iMac using BOOT-132 on my pc. Installer loaded and after choosing language got the message that the software can't be installed on my machine :wacko:

 

Mobo: Gigabyte GA-G33M-DS2R (BIOS F7)

CPU: Core 2 Duo E6600

RAM: 4X1GB OCZ SpecOps 800MHz

Graphics: nVidia Quadro 570 FX/256MB/PCI-Express 16 (tried integrated GMA X3100 too)

1st HDD: WD Raptor 37GB SATA 150

2nd HDD: Seagate 400GB SATA 300

DVD: Liteon LH-20A1S (SATA)

 

What's wrong? Can You help me?

 

You can install only Mac Os retail (box version) - you cannot use iMac dvd installation.

Thanks llauqsd, i hope cameleon comes out soon. this is a great project. 

 

 

 

 

 

I have this same problem, and i believe the answer will be to simply wait for chameleon with boot-132 built into it (or the other way around). An annoyance for sure, but not a dealbreaker for me.

How do I use the HMBT Auto-Patch? What programs do I need? If any? Could someone just please explain this process to me, I am doing this on a windows machine btw.

 

Does anyone who has been successful with this have an ASUS P5E LGA 775 Intel X38 ATX Intel Motherboard?

 

Thank you

Hi, THANKS !

But can you clearify whats the steps around for the usage ?

1. a MUST : PC can run OS X Vanialla - clear

 

My szenario / situation i mean:

HD of the PC is complete unformatet / no partiotions, no OSX86 things on it

So i am ??? by : no need to use dfe 132 cd to boot your hd .

 

How can i boot or make step 1 (of yours: copy ...) if PCs HD is unformated and orig. Apple Leo cant boot (need 132 CD) to prepare HD (GUID partitioning / installing OS X )?

Or ist your special version not for booting Apple orig. DVD on an HD empty PC by using an pre CD-boot (132-CD) ?

 

For what usage (sitauation) it is exact if it is not made for booting an PC without PRE-installed OSX86 things on ?

Can it be, that this version is used after installing OS X86 (patched DVD) for booting orig. Apple DVD without the 132-CD) ?

 

Question about chameleon fdisk : i heard thar apples fdisk can corrupt OSX86 Part Tables.

Is this only for Vista/OSX dual boot usage or also XP (MBR/GUID) /OSX usage. So it could be useful to install fdisk with pacifist on working OSX install ?

it says for hard disk. no cd boot. to boot your retail you need one of the other cd images. this is to boot your installed retail.

First post updated with Chameleon for Hard Disk:.

 

Cheerz,

 

Thanks.

 

Whats the differnence of this new DL to using the known chameleon EFI (V0.11) on HD ?

 

uderstand i right now, that this new DL is :

1. Install orig. OS X DVD on HD (using 132-CD )

2. Install this new DL .

3. Now orig. DVD Install is bootable from HD without patching (only the special kexts in that EXTRA folder)

 

Or is this new DL also usefull for "normal" (Prepatched OSX86DVD Leo4all, JAS,.... KALY..) installs ?

Kaly sent me a DS3 version of this hard drive package with all the necessary kexts in the Extra Contents folder. I just added one kext, a patched AppleHDA.kext and I made sure that I set the OSBundleRequired to Root. So I installed the package, rebooted, and it got all messed up after I rebooted. I lost video, audio, restart, etc. I fixed the mess up by deleting the Extra folder from root, deleting Extensions.mkext and reinstalling the original Chameleon 1.0.11 loader. But I'm wondering, did I do something wrong? I am using a Kalyway 10.5.2 install with Chameleon 1.0.11 and using EFI string for video...

~pcwiz, do you use "CDBoot" with pre-patched OSX? (Kalyway)?
