OSx86 10.4.4 Leaked

While we knew it would just be a matter of time, OS X for Intel 10.4.4 has leaked. As usual, the recovery disc is being seeded via torrent on a major bit torrent site. The following oh-so-brief note accompanies the 4.2 gig .dmg file:

This is the Mac OS X 10.4.4 Restore Disc included with all the Intel iMacs. It's unpatched so don't bother trying to install it.

No word yet as to the integrity of this file, nor is it known the method with which Apple will keep hackers from breaking their hardware restrictions. In other news, somewhere in Europe a man with a name that, when translated, sounds vaguely like Maxxuss, was seen dashing through the snow covered streets towards his computer shouting something like "Viva la x86! I must get to my hackintosh!"

 

Watch this space for more news as it develops.

After you remove xcode , if your using ultraiso, click save as ..it will rewrite the iso, but if any patches PPF's are made for it , it will be on the original ISO.

 

Doesn't work. UltraISO says "Cannon save HFS Volume"!

Why convert the image why not just burn it to disc under osx with toast

 

That's fine if you're doing it on a Mac, but you're probably going to want to patch it too and all the patchers require an ISO format. Not that there are any patches available yet...

here's weird... i replaced most of the 10.4.3 kexts with the 10.4.4 ones (not the critical ones though). now when i boot i get "your system clock is wrong" and it shows up as 1970. a quick auto-correct via Apple sets it to the right time, but its strange that its not picking up the date/time from my bios. probably EFI related. wonder which kext sets the time (so i can change it back lol)

hmmm.... i'm getting the "cannot save HSF volume" on UltraISO too.. coverted to ISO, opened it up, deleted Xtools, now I can't save it.

 

opened up the iso in Transmac, deleted Xtools, they're gone now, UltraISO says the contents of the ISO are under 4 gig, BUT It won't let me burn it because it says the actual ISO is still 4.7 gig! I'm bloody confused now...

Hi,

 

Just checked maxxuss site and it has been updated saying "patches not yet available.". So, I believe GOD maxxuss is working on something which is awesome.

Well here is my plan of attack.

 

I don't believe they would have removed all the bios support out of the kernal, but that is my belief. So, when I get home tonight, I am going to do the following:

 

1) Convert the DMG to a CDR

2) hidutil attach -readwrite "Image Name.cdr"

3) Copy the /user/standalone/i386/ files from my current install of 10.4.3 8f1111 to the mounted CDR.

4) Eject the mounted cdr (saving the copied files to the .cdr)

5) Burn it to a DVD+DL

6) Try to boot and see what I get

 

This might just be a complete waste of a DL DVD+R, but hey I think I might need a new coaster anyways. But I'll post my findings, even if it's just the fact that I got a pretty new coaster.

Has anyone tried extracting applications from the disk like Safari? I can wait for 10.4.4 but right now I really need a more stable browser.

 

safari from 10.4.4. does not work

Hoorah, Hooray... today MAXXUSS posted on his site that he will indeed be working on patches for 10.4.4 on his site. It is the same copy I'm sure most of us already have downloaded from ARRRGGGHH bay.

 

 

MAXXUSS.... u r my hero... heh heh heh

 

guess he wasn't dissuaded by apple's new DO_NOT_STEAL_OSX.kext
