macita Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Im using last BIOS, I Tried the new Bootloader 132, we can install RETAIL Leopard DVD read the tread in the news, afer the combo mega update via internet...YES WE CAN! IF WE USE AHCI SATA we can fix the IOHCIFamily.kext simply by add some lines, under: extension=IOAHCIFamily plugin=IOAHCIBlockStorage matchstring=IOAHCIDevice ADD THIS: <key>Physical Interconnect</key> <string>SATA</string> <key>Physical Interconnect Location</key> <string>Internal</string> <key>Protocol Characteristics</key> <dict> <key>Physical Interconnect</key> <string>SATA</string> <key>Physical Interconnect Location</key> <string>Internal</string> </dict> I must say "thnx to kalyway and iNDi" for this, Boot works also in USB pen drive but just after the first install... so dont use it at first time. WE miss to install the audio, but we can always put those kext who arent working out o f the box, inside the extra kext folder for keep the extensions folder like a real mac. All is working fine, sleep, TM, and more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macita Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Ethernet works out from the box, because is the same chipset of some mac motherboards! Audio for a moment i added a nice package install for the RT 882 chipset Video i cant add nothing because it dependend by your videocard installed, check this section video drivers, iv installed kvush for nvidia...

One question, Do you have to install an EFI v.8 patch?? many thanks, Miro No, efi v.8 patch no needs to be installed, is chameleon efi inside the bootloader, if u want, at the end of the upgrade from apple site u can install efi or chameleon for boot from hdd but you must to add all the kexts inside the initdr.img to the system/library/extensions... The most easy and quickly way is install the chameleon packager that for me is quite better then EFI v.8 Remember that at next Apple update you must reinstall for sure audio and video ...if not efi nject.... the usual fixes post update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are saying I don't have to install EFI v.8, just the bootloader 123 and then install Leopard retail? So I don't ever have to install EFI v.8, just the video and audio drivers after updating 10.5 to 10.5.4. Is this right???

QuietRiot Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Macita, thanks for maintaining this thread. Another happy P5W user here. I'm interested in the Boot-132 + Chameleon business. I've read the news thread (linked above), the Karakeeha1 thread, and a few others on installation, Chameleon, and Boot-132. I've got a couple of questions. Do I need Boot-132? I explain. I have two harddrives, let's call them 'Old' and 'New'. On Old I already have a working Kaly installation running. I'm hoping to get a vanilla installation running on New. Could I do the following: boot Old format New install Chameleon on New install vanilla Mac OS X on New remove/install proper P5W kext reboot Shouldn't that work?

macita Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Kalyway dvd is one of the best distro for our motherboard it allowas you to run EFI and Vanilla on your motherboard. Vanilla is the name of the original leopard Kernel, can be used if you have an intel motherboard chipsets and Intel core 2 processor, so i cant understand why u must to do this double installation. At the end you will have a clone system. And how to update it then? is more simple run 132 bootloader with the needed kexts , install retail dvd, do update system, install all the fixes/kexts in the SYSYTEM/LIBRARY/EXTENSIONS (simply copy the kexts from initdr.img on the bootloader iso), install audio, video and what you wnat..reboot (with 132 bootloader) try if all is wrking, at last install chameleon....

Boot Camp Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Macita, when I insert the retail disc it loads to the gray apple and then does a kernel panic, do you think this can be fixed with a BIOS update? I am currently on revision 2602 and the newest one is 2704. (Using your P5W ISO by the way) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicko_029 Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Is there a way to install a new Bootloader 132 without reinstall OS X and format whole HDD? Beacause I've just installed all applications and set it up. I don't wanna bother with that again.... Currently running 10.5.2 (Vanilla) Thx!

bigpoppa206 Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 is a bad setup in to the BIOS, im sure it is!My BIOS SETUP CONFIGURATION using 2704 BIOS (what is important) I have the same exact board, reset my bios EXACTLY as described above and tried to boot from CD. But everytime I switch over to start booting the Leopard install disk, it only gets part way and then I get the "You need to restart your computer..." System Error. Only thing I do with the hard disk is to format with GUID partition. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
