chain0 is only bootloader process starter

do you have osx still installed? if yes, pressing f8 at right timing should bring the os x boot menu, if there is not osx there is nothing to come!

what exactly do you have on your system? you just say chain0 bla bla bla , and nothing comes?

what exactly do you have on your system and what did you do?

sorry Mysticus, you will take me for a dumb, but my english is not so good... :/
so I have a little problem to understand what to do !!! I'm lost !! Probably due to langage (I'm a French guy)

I reinstall totally my NC10 ! I finished to reinstall XP, with drivers.

So now what does I need to do for have the 10.5.6 DVD ? (I have my original JAS 10.5.4 iso) !!!!

I will realise a french tuto for all my "compatriote" ^^

Thanks again !

[ Mysticus C*]

if you have your jas 10.5.4 original iso, what you can do is:

download dvdupgrade 10.5.6 package from previously give temp link
download 10.5.6 combo update from apple, and place it in the root of your current working osx partition
copy the original jas 10.5.4 to root same as above (make sure you have a copy of jas dvd still somewhere in case anything goes wrong)

run the dvd upgade 10.5.6 package>>>> this will convert your 10.5.4 jas to a samsung nc10 10.5.6 iso

now read the full pdf guide, to reinstall everything as 10.5.6?

=========================================
Anyone with RS account want 10.5.6 ppf for original Jas, PM me
for information, it is ready...
=========================================

[tazevil666]

I download it ! I download combo too ! But I don't have an osx partitions for the moment, cause I totally resintall my NC10 !
I only have XP for the moment !

It will be more easy to use you PPF for directly converting my 10.5.4 JAS DVD ? And start with a 10.5.6 install ?

[blade1212]

mystrius, trust me, I've read every post and your old and new tutoriial before I got started (granted I'm new to OSX). If I ask a question, it's because I'm looking for clarification that is not obvious (to me).

Anyway now that it's obvious the dvd upgrade to 10.5.6 needs OSX installed to get the iso then I gues I won't bother. I need to start from 10.5.4 and I supose I can upgrade to 10.5.6 via apple.com once I have OSX installed.

One request mate, calm down and stop thinking every poster who doesn't have the same level of knowledge as you is a cabbage. People are people mate and you are one of us.

[ Mysticus C*]

everyone should receive some xmas wish messages from me by now and not to think so hard... there is an easy answer to some questions
blade: it is Mysticus C* (not mystrius???? who is that?)

apply ppf to original jas in windows (you dont need to have osx installed for this time only) but for future purposes, i suggest you to try to understand the process, it is fairly simple... later update will be integrated to current 10.5.6 dvd from now on, no more dvd upgrade process for earlier version again after this 10.5.6 ppf for jas...)

jas 10.5.4 original + jas to nc10 10.5.6 ppf = Latest and fastest NC10 installation...

[DJKwai]

- Anybody know if there exist a Dell 1490 drivers wifi card for XP ??? I tried a lot of them but nothing is working !!! :/

Tazevil-
Actually, all you need to do is go to the Dell website and search support area for the correct xp drivers for the 1490. They have several packages that work - Remember, Dell only uses windows xp and vista anyways, so they make drivers for both platforms for all of their hardware.

Hi,

Just thought I'd chime in to thank mysticus for all his work. I am picking my NC10 up tomorrow having already ordered new RAM, a Dell 1490 and downloaded the original JAS. Really looking forward to the 'jas to nc10 10.5.6 ppf' to become available!

Keep up the great work!

[adamcarter]

torrent anyone?

[tazevil666]

Ho my dear Mystrius oh sorry Mysticus

I have a little problem with my install !
At the end of the install of OSX , my NC10 reboot... and reboot ! I verify all the bios parameters, all is ok.
For information, I have reinstall my XP OS ! I follow the guide and I have 3 partitions (1 for XP, 1 for OSX, 1 for DATA, I delete the recovery partition).

I don't understand :'(

Thx

[jooster]

I patched the iso with 10.5.6 ppf and got the same checksum, so installed. All went well throughout the installation but a few minor issues now on completion:-

no audio at all - any suggestions on how to fix this
no option in preferences to enable mouse options
sleep still not working while on power

everything else seems to be really good, great work
Any help much appreciated.

Cheers
Jooster

jooster: in the guide i mentioned i think, go to sound in system preferences anc change output to internal speaker

mouse problem is something i m aware of and either from 10.5.6 update which some people already mentioned, and because i prefered to use most drivers stock (vanilla) this is something to live with, some things are sacrafisable

sleep in power doesnt work but i mentioned it already, but know that i m working on a solution for it with dsdt fix

jeanjd: delete your post please it is not correct information! no body do what he suggested pls...

tazevil: you are complete noob... where in the guide i mentioned to delete the recovery prtition? i only mentioned last partition, which is data... now you have much bigger problems...

adamcarter: not myself, but hopefully some people who promised to do so will do it

[SL3]

Yeah, I just realized, when I installed my custom XP ISO, I blew away all of the partitions, including the recovery partition. This means I'm pretty much screwed now, right? I can't install OS X without the recovery partition, right?

Ah, crap

no you are not screwed totaly, it will work still if you did the things right, but if you will have to make a full recovery in the future for some reason, you will have trouble! i only mentioned last partition to be removed, i dont understand why people do remove recovery partition... it is for your nc10's xp recovery and only 6 gb size... i hope you understand the concern...

Well I've got a bootable USB drive with XP on it, so if I totally mess something up then I can just reinstall from that. I have all of my stuff backed up, so no worries there.

I've got a patched 10.5.6 NC10 ISO ready to go. I would've installed last night but it was a long day at work so I went to bed! I'll give it a go tonight.

thx @ Mysticus C* for your great work and the time you spent for this project

I have a question.

I have a Samsung NC10 (of course ; ).
I Installed iDeneb 1.3 (running kernel 10.5.5).
Everything works fine so far.
Now I want to use your scripts for brightness control. I extracted the increase/decrease script and change-brightness file from your NC10 10.5.6 installer package.
I installed Quicksilver and configured the hot keys.
If I wan't to use the script I can only see the icons for the brightness controll on the screen, but the brightness do not change.
Now my question
Which kext do I need from your package top make it work. Which kext files I Must replace with your kext files.
Or is ist neccessary that i first upgrade to 10.5.6?
I replaced my AppleInteGMA950.kext and AppleIntelIntegratedFrameBuffer.kext with yours but nothing changed If i am using your two kext file i see no login screen. I only have a blue and bright screen. I can than enter my username and password (just write it blind, i can see no login screen) and then i am login in but i see no desktop/dock etc.

What do I need for brigthness controll. Thx.

Install CHUD and the brightness control should work. I had the same problem until I installed CHUD.

[SilSha]

Why do I need CHUD?
What is the newest version and where can I get it without registering on apple.
