Superb karaakeha1! I'm planning to buy the EP35-DS4 in the next weeks but I saw that LS8 had a problem with his mobo to sleep and shutdown. Do you have the same problems so I can see that it's not a general problem. He's a little genius I must say with his scripts ;)

 

Is there a "retail dvd 10.5.3" available on the green demon or do you mean retail 10.5.0 + update 10.5.3?

Retail 10.5 and combo update 10.5.3 from apple( install just after 10.5 from other working leopard than apply various texts etc

As in my signature everything works

good luck

I meant was retail DVD install.

For shut down

Have you installed CHUD.pkg

 

Sorry for misunderstanding,

Yes I installed from retail dvd using your instructions and I installed chud.pkg from developer tools, but it doesn't help for shutdown problem.

I also tried shutdown fix installer and nothing, same thing.

I disabled all cores except one but computer doesn't shutdown it hangs during shutdown process (mouse and icons disappear and after that it should fade to black and shutdown, but it freezes).

Sorry for my english I think it's more clear now.

May be Different motherboard Issue , Shutdown Works now perfect on P35-DS4 Board,Poweroff_fix just disable extra cores before shut down.

and this Trick works only with more than one core CPU

For Dell laptop its easy, you have a Dell motherboard! But seriously, its the chipset thais important, which northbridge and southbridge. For this info use google and Dells own search on your asset ID.

Is it possible that shutdown problem is because of AppleSMBIOS.kext?

With older one in the kext folder from install pack I get sleep and restart, but when I put latest netkas applesmbios I loose restart.

Maybe shutdown has to do something with that kext?

So far the best APPLE SMBIOS is macdotnub latest ( this is based on latest netkas)

this works with logmein Photoshop Videoplayer and many more

already included in install package first post

try this

AppleSMBIOS.kext.zip

I installed Leopard 10.5.1 Retail DVD using pacifist in my 10.4.8 tiger install. I have PC_EFI v8.0 installed and using the lastest AppleSMBios. I know for a fact that PC_EFI is working. At least i think it is. Once it shows, BSD root: disk1s2, major 14, minor, It just sits there for like a minute or more. It also shows, ERROR: FireWire unable to determine security-mode; defaulting to full-secure.Then reboots. :( Before it reboots, it shows this:

 

Syncing disks Killing all processes

 

Continuing

 

Jnl: unknown-dev: flushing fs disk buffer returned 0x5

 

Jnl: unknown-dev: flushing fs disk buffer returned 0x5

 

Jnl: unknown-dev: flushing fs disk buffer returned 0x5

 

Done

 

MACH Reboot

 

 

 

Here are my System Specs.

 

Sony Vaio Laptop (VGN-FZ250E)

 

Intel Core 2 Duo T7500 (2.20GHz)

 

Memory: 2GB

 

Video: Intel GMA X3100

 

Chipset: Mobile Intel GM965 Does any one have any ideas what might be wrong?

I was wondering if the problem could be the disk permissions? I did not set the correct permissions on AppleSMBIOS.kext and dsmos.kext. I tried to repair them in disk utility but it gave me an error. So, if that is the problem, could you tell me how to repair disk permissions in terminal.

 

 

Thank you

sudo -s
<password>
cd /System/Library/Extensions
chmod -R 755 *
chown -R root:wheel *
touch /System/Library/Extensions

 

Then restart system, though if you have disk utility giving you an error it's likely you have some bigger issue.

Do you have "owners enabled" on the partition?
How do u enable owners?
sudo -s<password>cd /System/Library/Extensionschmod -R 755 *chown -R root:wheel *touch /System/Library/Extensions

Then restart system, though if you have disk utility giving you an error it's likely you have some bigger issue.

Thank you Coda for your help. But unfortunately it did not solve my problem.

ls8, I figured out how to enable owners! But ever time i type in the command it says:

 

vsdbutil: Couldn't get volume information for '/Volumes/Leopard': No such file or directory

vsdbutil: No valid UUID found on '/Volumes/Leopard': No such file or directory

Hi,

 

this thread is very good and useful, but i've one question which is, Is this just another way ton install OSX on a PC, or it gives a real advantage than iatkos and other install.

I'm running on a Iatkos 1.0i updated with kalyway combo update.

 

Another question : With this install, the boot sequence is the same as iatkos? or as real mac?

all devices are ok ?

Apple online update is working ? (on iatkos system update is not working)

 

Thanks for replies .

Shut Down Fix 1 June : : thanks to ovuf. Install Chud pkg from the Retail dvd (Optional installs/XcodeTools/Packages) After installing this go to developer/Extras/PreferencePanes click Processor.prefPane .it will install processor icon on your System Preferances(seepic below) open that and check show control in menu bar. thats it you are done .once you click Single CPU than you shut down its 100% success. there is small application call powerOff bugfix.zip (see below)

it does same thing turns off extra cores for you(you must install Chud pkg before installing this or system won't boot ) attached below

So how do you get rid of the preference pane it does seem to have an uninstaller and deleting it from the system does not do it? Other than allowing me to shutdown all it did was kill off the iStat menu program so I rather not have it installed at all.

Right Click on it and there is option says remove from the prefeance pane

By the way my istat is working perfectly with it

That option does not exist here I already checked for that before and in the preference panel itself for an option like most of them have. I deleted the pane from the system it still shows up as for the iStat this was the only thing I installed/changed then once I had checked the shutdown that is it no more iStat working. Thanks for the speedy reply BTW.

Control and right click in the Preference Panel on the one you want to remove supposedly does it in theory not in practice here though still persists.
