is your dvd drive jumpered as master? try also another ide cable.

 

is your sata hd in sata port 1? if all this doesn't work, try to burn the image not faster than 2x speed.

 

iis it your first experience with the osx install?

[aibonlengket]

To Kalyway or other disro. please add 0x53371106 0x2363197B to the device id of appleviaata.kext info.plist. it is for sata to work on Asus P5VD2-mx.

Airtunes working for you??

Is there anyone using airtunes with this DVD updated to 10.5.2 (with new kernels).

I have the problem not being able to select my remote speakers (although they are seen by Itunes!!) described in more detail here:

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=90851

 

Anyone reproduce this or have suggestions?

Everything else is now working for me!

Thank you for this release!!

[Rathius]

I am unable to unzip the file because the size of the iso does not match the size that is listed in the zip file. Anyone know how to bypass this?

Hi,

Can you please give me the link to the torrent. Or just give me the name of it. I'll find it and install. Please!!

 

Sorry, but I dont know any Leopard DVD wich support ATI Chipsets, but XxX_OS_x86_10.4.11_Install_Disc_Intel.iso does supports ATI Chips.

[franz73]

@MacSimizeDenver

 

1) Yes my DVD drive is set as Master

2) Today I switched the two HD I have. I have two extractable HD drive boxes. The first is a blank HD or so I think. The second Is Windows XP but I turn it off before attempting to install Kalyway.

WinXP is on SATA2 and the blank disk is on SATA1

3) Yes it's my first experience with MacOS on Pc!!

 

Today I also put AHCI mode in Jmicron eSATA/PATA controller (but I don't use this connector!).

I tried to install Kaliway but the message is always the same:

 

System config file '/com.apple.boot.plist' not found

 

Cany you understand?

Thanks a lot

gd666gd1, how did u manage to solve ur booting problem?:

loading darwin/x86

loading kernel mach_kernel

loading hfs+ file:[ ...etc

...

starting darwin/x86

then reboots.

 

Ive tried -v, -x, legacy, cpus=1 etc,etc but nothing seems to work 4 me..

could you point me in the right direction or anyone else let me know what this problem could be about?

 

[i installed Leopard successfully, in a MBR partition at the end of my 180 Sata HDD after my XP partition, but havnt managed to boot from the installation yet, the machine detects both partitions but when i select Leopard it fails to boot and enters a loop.]

I don't know about a third party VNC application, but I've been able to use Apple Remote Desktop ("Screen Sharing") with my MacBook and my Hackintosh, no problems. About a third party app, no idea. Check that you haven't blocked any ports or anything like that in the Hack's firewall or something like that, but I really don't know what to tell you.

 

The only VNC solution I found by NOT using the built-in VNC server and using REALVNC's server instead (www.realvnc.com). Unfortunately, the only Mac version is a Paid enterprise version that runs on Leopard, which is $50. Yikes. It has worked great over the last few days, so I'm inclined to pay for it since I can't find any creative licencing out there. Somehow it thinks my 30-day trial has expired, though.. hmm...

This is the best DVD by far, above uphuck + jas.

I installed 10.5.1, then did the netkas 10.5.2 update method (kalyway 10.5.2 update failed for me..)...

 

Anyways, eventually my computer suffered this error upon boot

Its been a few days since i've used my computer, because it doesnt boot... does anyone know a fix?

(if it requires a new kext, can someone attach it to their post)

 

THANKS!

 

Oh, and not to annoy, but anyone know a time frame to expect a 10.5.2 DVD, is it like in 2 months or is it more like 2 weeks?

[SonicSpeed]

OK another noob question

 

Setup:

Gigabyte 965P-S3

Core 2 Duo E6600 (stock)

4GB OCZ DDR2-800

100GB SATA

20GB IDE

36GB SCSI (LSI Logic SCSI PCI)

NEC DVD-RW Drive

 

After waiting for about ten minutes or so (when the text gets smaller), I get the error mkdir() Failed to create /library/logs Read-Only File System. It also says SAM Multimedia: Read or Write Failed sometimes before and after it.

 

I even booted in -s and manually formatted the drive I was going to use and it still didn't work. I'm gonna try however, to do that to the SATA drive instead of the IDE drive to see if it works (since my SCSI drive isn't being recognized).

[Chrismo]

incoma,

I have the badaxe2 motherboard, and have ben having problems with EFI & GUID. It seems that the badaxe board doesent easily allow the Drive to become active or install EFI 8.

Read this thread by BJMoose. http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...=74705&st=0

 

It's currenty driving me crazy.

[bennec83]

Hi,

 

No matter what i do this will not work, i have tryed your method, This method, and the method iAtkos suggests, i have tryed the iAtkos v1 and tryed it with all the updates and patches you can apply, i have tryed kalyways dvd's, nothing works.

 

I have emailed yourself, kalyway and iAtkos & posted in the forums, but no mention of pointing me in the right direction, i dont get what the problem is i have some of the best equipment available on the market and this will not work, i guess this just proves how limited MAC's are.

 

I was a MAC hater before i tryed this and as i said i have been trying this for about 3-4 weeks now and it still dont work. I actually wanted to stop myself hating them so much but its kinda back firing!!

 

No matter what method i try (ignoring the dual boot!!) i can prep a totally separate harddisk for the MAC install, unplug everything other then my DVD drive and the prepared Hard Disk for OSX, and no matter what DVD (iAtkos or Kalyway) when i run the setup (with -v) it just stops and tells me that "cannot find root device"

 

I dont get the problem, the drive is there, it is plugged in, it is formatted for OSX. it should work.

 

I know that this has something to do with my nForce board, but i have seem people on this forum with the Same EVGA board as me and they have it working. With regards to this, iAtkos, Kalyway and devilhood all mention that "you need to inject the nforce drivers into the DVD" but im sure that i have applyed each update in chronological order and tryed the install each time with the same effect.

 

From what i can see, the DVD's dont work, the updates dont work, and peoples described methods dont work. I have read every page i can find about this, i am not a lazy person and i do my research but i find that no-one is willing to help, this is kind of infuriating as i have followed every compliance in the forum rules, i have read everything i can find, i have not made rubbish posts asking repeating questions.

 

It is like banging my head off a brick wall.

 

 

My system config is below, can someone please help:

 

All hard disks are sata, DVD drive is IDE

Your comments such as (1) do not help anybody including yourself. None of driver developers and compilation publisher such as Kalyway and Uphuck gets paid on regular basis for their work and hence no one should blame them. They are probably busy with their personal stuffs just like us and still try to help others with what they found about Hackintosh.

 

About (2). The reason that all of your trials, which is just a subset of all possible combinations, ended without success is because there's no driver for the SATA controller on EVGA 122-CK-NF68-A1. "Cannot find root device" error simply means that the installation DVD doesn't see your SATA HDD. Such claim is backed by this report. Now if I were you, I would try again with IDE HDD (and without non-onboard video card and audio card) using GPT. If you don't have any IDE HDD, I would buy some Intel chipset motherboard which is known to work fabulously instead of IDE HDD. Good luck.

--S

 

P.S. When you try something, try to be smart and efficient first. That will save some time of yours and others.

 

P.P.S. If you happen to have a Mac, then connect your SATA HDD to the Mac and install Leopard natively from your Mac. Then remove AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext, add dsmos.kext, and replace AppleSMBIOS.kext as usual, and install EFI on the SATA HDD. Then connect the SATA HDD to your Hackintosh, boot your Hackintosh, and try to write something on the SATA HDD. By doing so, you can see if the claim is true by yourself without buying more stuffs. If writing is okay, then you should report that there's is a way, which I just described, of installing Leopard on your motherboard with SATA HDDs.

Got it to boot now, going through the process of deleting NVD* and Ge* kexts.

 

 

Hey,

I'm having he same problem. How did you get it to boot??

Thanks

Jason

[garlog]

What software do you use for Kaly 10.5.1 for CPU Throtteling?

The CPU Throttel software from Bresink does not work. I thought it would because of the pre installed EFI from kaly 10.5.1.

Is there any alternative available or do I need to update EFI?

[Koushik]

Sorry, but I dont know any Leopard DVD wich support ATI Chipsets, but XxX_OS_x86_10.4.11_Install_Disc_Intel.iso does supports ATI Chips.

First of all, thanks for replying. Well, as my internet connection is slow (256 kbps) i'll have to wait for a few days to download the file. So i'll post the experience after a few days. Thanks for replying again.

[JumpZero]

Hello,

 

I can read that many people are facing problems to extract the zip file.

I did have the same.

But I found the reason (at least for me)

the iso image is greater than 4Go

FAT32 file system maximum file size is 4Go

Since the zip file is lesser than 4Go the problem appears only when extracting the archive.

Furthermore the zip software (Winzip, winrar at least) error messages aren't clear.

Extract the file in a NTFS or ext3 or whatever you want and there is no problem.

 

I hope this can help but may be somebody already notice it.

 

See u

Hey everyone.

I've been struggling to get kalyway to install properly.

I have an Asus P5k(regular) motherboard and a sapphire radeon x1950 256mb graphics card

 

At first i tried updating the firmware to the latest release, configured my bios settings according to the tutorials available.

The kalyway install boots up and installs fine.

Then i get to the point of restarting the computer, once i restart, i'm stuck in a reboot loop.

part of the code was kernel trap at 0x2e169f00 type 14= page

Also it was complaining about not being able to obtain the ehci from the bios.

 

I installed using only the vanilla kernel, and the efi_mbr, as my previous installs failed with the drivers also.

 

Then i tried booting with -x, everything loads fine, it asks me to enter in keys for my keyboard, once i get to the point where it asks whether i want to use time machine, i press no, and it loops back through the beginning.

 

Then i tried downgrading the firmware to 406, and the kalyway install would not even load. I was getting the still searching for root device error, and the ehci error again.

 

Then i tried keeping my install from the upgraded bios, and downgrading to 406, to use ahci, and that didn't work either. I'm still getting the same errors.

 

If anyone can help, thanks in advance.

After installing kalyway and rebooted it just shows mac logo doesn.t go ahead did i do any thing worng. As i'v einstall kalyway on E4400 motherboard SG-95 socket 775 build in Sis Mirage 1 800MHz fsb2g DDR2can anyone help me how to get into mac.

[frankbo]

Just installed and rebooted expecting to see the OSX Setup Assistant. Instead everything is hung, the last two lines being

Jettisoning kernel linker.

Mar 5 20:21:51 localhost fseventsd[29]: log dir: /.fseventsd getting new uuid: XXXXXXXX-XXXX-...

I've googled FSEvents and OSx86, but there aren't many results and what I can find I don't understand. Can someone suggest a solution, or if you understand the problem but don't know a solution, would you suggest maybe some places to look or similar issues that might have similar solutions? Any help is appreciated.

during booting you should see a screen telling you to press any key to enter boot option (i can't remember the exact words). do this, and you will get a blinking cursor. type -v and press enter. you should then be able to see what's going wrong. report back on what it says otherwise we have no way of helping.

Thanks for quick reply. Let me explain you how i've installed mac..

 

1st i've formated 30g with mac dos and tried to installed and at halfway it failed

2nd time i formated with mac extended and installation went perfectly. and told me to reboot. after clicking reboot it doesnt go inside just shows logo. so after typing -v i found error such as

 

HFS Blockmarkfree () trying to free unallocated blocks on volume mac ( Mac extended the one i formated )

HFS : runtime curroption detected on mac FSCK will be force on next Mount

Mar. 6.02.40.32 localhost : kernel [0]

 

is this error occur cause i formated mac extended?

 

i will attached pic

Installed Kalyway 10.5.1 Intel...installation went fine. For once, I didn't recieve the blinking cursor after POST, but finally got the Darwin Bootloader screen. After letting it load, I would get about 2 seconds in, and it would reboot. So I typed in -v at the Bootloader to see what was going on. Here is what I got:I don't know what the "S" is at the end..I tried countless times to Pause Break to see what it was, but i honestly think S is the last letter/word before it reboots...Any ideas? I miss my hackintosh. Had a perfect JAS on my old AMD machine before my mobo took a dump.

(you may have fixed this, but i'm posting in case others are having the issue)i was having similar problems to this (see sig for specs). The S is the start of the next line ("Starting Darwin X86" or something similar). For me the issue was intermittent - i could boot up, but only about 1 in 10 times. (i was also have the "Hey we are going backwards" issue which was less frequent but also seems to be gone - in combination these issues made restarting a half hour procedure)

The problem seemed to go away once i overclocked my processor. i can't really say what made the difference as i changed quite a few bios settings at the time, but some things i suggest trying (one at a time if possible so we can work out what the issue was):

turn off legacy usb support

turn off cpu spectrum spread

update bios to latest version

set pci-e frequency to 100

disable speedstep (in cpu setup)

set powerstate to S3 only

acpi 2.0 enabled

 

i'm interested to know what processors people have if they are having this issue - is it an E2180 thing?

i can't say for sure what the problem is, but did you set the partition map as MBR or GUID (i think you need to press options in disk utility to get the choice. i would suggest GUID) ? you need to choose one and make a note so you select the right option in the installer

you certainly need to format the disk as HFS+ Journaled in Disk Utility.

Mate, I didnt use guid as i gave 30g fully to mac .. so that is my second primary HD. and do i have to format with HFS+ journaled where it says that so that i can re installa gain.. sorry to give you trouble
