TrYp MyNe Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 I've got a problem with the iATKOS v1.0i disk. I have an AMD system, as seen below in my sig. I can boot the disk fine, but the installer has no options for the AMD install. It all says Intel, but i downloaded the AMD version from mininova. I even ppf'ed the image to make it the AMD_test install disk, and the only thing that did was took all the stuff out of the utilities, there are no menu options for Disk Utility, Terminal, or ANYTHING!!! so i don't know what to do. Please hackintosh-heads, help a brotha out here :censored2: thnx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habib Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 u dont need to use the ppf patch for iso from mininova. this amd test ppf is for original not patched iATKOS v1.0i iso. The mininova's iso is already patched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrYp MyNe Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 2008 well, when i burned 2 disk the prepatched, and then the ppf'd one. neither work. i think the prepatched one installed, but did not work for amd. i tried to boot it and it juz restarts. i have efi active on it, and the bootloader works, but the install of leopard will not boot. it loads all the extensions too, when i boot in verbose. but nothing from there. would u suggest i download the Zephyroth iso for leopard, because i think its like tubgirls, if im not mistaken. please clear this up for me. thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habib Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 u have to use post-install patches after installations (they are in the amd_test ppf archive), or use the Zephyroth 10.5.2 AMD EFI - it's the best for AMD now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrYp MyNe Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 2008 ok, so i have those files the patches, but how do i install them? i believe i still have a working tiger os that i can boot into if i am able to copy over the patches from there. would that work? then chmod and chown them? cuz i can do that if being booted into tiger will allow me to copy the patches over. thnx in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habib Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 yes, use your tiger to put files to leo partition. read the readme.rtf from patches archive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrYp MyNe Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 2008 ok that works thanx. but one problem now, i have no readme.rtf in my patches archive. all the other files are there, but no readme.rtf. how can i obtain the readme to do this procedure???

TrYp MyNe Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 bad news, i tried the stock disk (no ppf's or anything, but wuz already amd patched) and it would never install at all, it started, but the progress bar didn't move at all. so i patched with the amd test2 disk and it had a kernel panic. so now i am stuck on tiger unless i download that "Z" dudes iso lol. but yea, any suggestions?

habib Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 the ppf patch as i said is for original iATKOS iso only. so u can dl this iso and try test2 ppf on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrYp MyNe Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 yea i kno man. i figured i'd try anyways tho. and it didnt work either way. idk wtf is goin on. should i juz let the leopard disk that boots sit there on the installer screen and hope it works? because earlier i wuz gone for about 2 hrs and left it to install, it put all the files on there, but wouldn't boot. so wat should i do? let it sit and try to install, or juz dload the new iso?

habib Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 so, get the original iATKOS v1.0i iso (not r2 or amd patched). patch it with the test2 ppf. burn it to DVD with slow speed (2x or 4x). boot from dvd and install leo. then with the help of your tiger do post-install actions. boot from leo disk with -s and run patcher and replace.sh scripts. reboot and boot with -v to see what happens. that's it.

TrYp MyNe Posted February 29, 2008 Author Share Posted February 29, 2008 well, i just read the description on the torrent of Zeph's, and he has a motherboard VERY similar to mine, only difference is the audio chipset, i have integrated video, and my spdif is separate from my motherboard. and i also have i394 on mine so yea i have an nforce 430 chipset. very similar. so it should work very well, if not perfect!!! whooooo. it is currenly going between 60kbps and 120kbps, so its doing good now, im at 80%, i will let you all know how it goes once i install it and test it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
