wazzle638 Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 @ le jeune bidouilleur: If you mean screensharing via VNC, then yes, it does work, no problem. Did anybody find a completely safe way to get 10.5.7 running with all four threads / cores active yet? I'm still running with cpus=3 in stead of 4.

le jeune bidouilleur Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 I mean the Apple screen sharing, using the file sharing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyckyj Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 wazzle638: Have you tried using the dsdt.aml that Onetrack posted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wazzle638 Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Yes, I have tried the supplied dsts.aml, but then I couldn't even boot at all. I'm using one that I made with the dsdt-patcher from the pack that is supplied in the first post of this whole thread.. But thanks nonetheless.

le jeune bidouilleur Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Anyways we could overclock this board a litle for fun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbp Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Thanks for the rEFIt boot method Onetrack. You mentioned in one post that you were able to get 10.5.7 to work WITHOUT disabling hyperthreading. I followed your guide to the letter and still have to disable hyperthreading or boot with the CPUS=3 flag. Can you share any other thoughts on what you may have done to make this work? FWIW, my system with hyperthreading disabled under 10.5.7 Geekbench = 1000, with CPUS=3 and hyperthreading enabled under 10.5.7 = 1150 and with hyperthreading enabled under 10.5.6 = 1300.

kevin36thi Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Planning to build one of these but was just wondering how it performs? What kind stuff will I be able to do and not do? EDIT: Would I be able to use Photoshop and other Adobe programs? How fast will it be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
le jeune bidouilleur Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 The thing is that photoshop and Co are using some graphics. The board has an integrated chipset, so the performances won't be that good, but for a casual photo editeur, it will be ok. I was really suprised buy the performance of that board, all is very fluent (some times even more that my Imac..) I installed the server version of os x, and it works perfecty. It is a good motherboard. Bye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssprod Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Greetings, I'm loving the USB rEFIt method with my Intel D945gclf2 system, but I've tried everything posted to get audio out working, and have not been successful. If anyone can shed some light on this query, I'd appreciate it. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone can shed some light on this query, I'd appreciate it. Thanks! To make Audio out working, you will need KEXT HELPER, execute KEXT HELPER and browse for the AppleAzaliaAudio.kext file in the"kext_unused" folder that you will find on you're USB rEFIt stick. Don't forget to give youre password and finaly click on EASY INSTALL. Now when you reboot youre mac ;-) you will have audio out.

kevin36thi Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 Would it be worth buying components and installing OSX 10.5.7 if I'm looking to get Snow Leopard? Will Snow Leopard not be compatible with all the components used for this build? EDIT: I know it's hard to tell but how likely is it going to be compatible?

Methanoid Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Thanks for the two guides guys Couple of noob questions 1) What does the DSDT.AML file actually do as I havent yet copied it to my OSX partition but everything seems to work. Is it just a case of copying the later DSDT.AML file that OneTrack posted to the root dir of the OSX partition? 2) When using the original guide, I get that I need to disable HT to install the Combo update. Does that mean I can switch it back on once the update is done or I lose HT for good if I update to 10.5.7? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fekke Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Hi Thanks for the info. I've tried this method numerous times, but still no audio and system profiler lists "no onboard audio". Hi there, It is perfectly normal that the system profiler is not listing the audio device, this is because the use of non standard OSX drivers. Check ithe bios if de audio is enabled, check with de keyboard option FN-F8 if you can change the volume. (if the audio card is working, you chould get a little square with a speaker in it in the lower middle of your screen) Hope this will work for you.

kevin36thi Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 I've bought all the part and when it all comes I'll let you know how I'm getting on. Just a quick question though...I'm new to Hackintosh and OSx86 so I was just wondering after getting everything working will I be able to use boot camp?

Thanks Boot Camp is a BIOS emulator to allow Macs to boot into Windows. As you have a BIOS, it is unnecessary. Simply build a second windows drive and select it from Bios when you want to use it, or use the boot loader to select it. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bibendum Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Then you need to partition that drive and investigate dual booting, or get yourself Parallels or VMWare to run Windows in a Window. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin36thi Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Is it easy to make a partition in OSX? If I can make a partition in OSX couldn't I just use rEFIt to install and dual boot?

ssprod Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 I`ve updated the first post....The auto installer for the drivers it was not tested....if someone has some time please test it:). Audio drivers still missing. ATM i`m using Azalia Greetings, at my wit's end with the audio issues on the D945GLCLF2 board. iPC has installed and is running flawlessly, however I've tried ALC662, Azalia, and numerous other tries from posts on this subject...no luck with audio at all. In SYSTEM PROFILER, Audio (built-in) is listing "Intel High Definition Audio" with Device ID 0X8086D604 // Audio ID=12 and is blank under "Available Devices". In SYSTEM PREF. i've never been able to get any device listing in output or input. Any suggestions would be gratefully accepted. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TedPHX Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Has anyone had success running 10.5.7 with the Vanilla Apple Kernel (9.7.0) with Hyperthreading turned ON? I Have a D945GCLF2 running BIOS ver 0182. Tried a variety of bootloaders & DSDT.aml files and still get the following (immediate) Kernel Panic: "Should have 2 Cores, but only found 1 for Die 0"@/SourceCache/xnu/xnu-1228.12.14/osfmk/i386/cpu_threads.c:1110 System boots and acts fine with Hyperthreading turned off, Onetract's DSDT file works great.

kevin36thi Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Hello I followed the instuctions for 945GCLF2 installation using USB rEFIt but I can't seem to get to installation process. This is what happens, trying to install from a 10.5.6 retail: Turn on computer Boot into rEFIt Menu Chooses Boot OSX From Install DVD (Shouldn't it be Install and not boot?) Loads DSDT and then blank scrolling text comes up and a 10-15min wait till blue screen comes up and stays blank. EDIT: Images below of scrolling text and root of USB to see if everything in there is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onetrack Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 With that screen.. are you seeing the mouse at all? at that point the mouse will be black and normally shows up in the top corner. Great to see some people are enjoying their systems, i use min every day, have found of course that flash doesn't play all that well due to it being heavily cpu bound - however the machine is powerful enough to play 720p avi with ac3 5.1 - podcasts and such - it makes a great general purpose computer. Just follow the instructions... start fresh & I suggest when done you use xslimmer to strip out all the ppc code, slim down the os and speeds up booting / general use. Enjoy your systems, One regarding dualboot - much much easier with 2 drives.

Methanoid Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Does anyone know how to get the original guide to work with 10.5.7 update? I had a fine 10.5.6 system, disabled HT, upgraded to 10.5.7 with OneTracks DSDT.aml file present but lost all kexts and video res etc. Reinstalled kexts and now have unbootable machine. I'd rather not use Refit method at this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
