Is there any way you can get my a copy of the corrected ones I can place with transmac, or anyway that I can get my system working out of safe mode for the moment?

told you the solution, read my answer

Are you referring to this?



With the files restored to the backups I still crash/get stuck at "You need to restart your computer..."
What is wrong now?

What are the chances that someone could put together a custom ISO for the NC10, like the ISO made for the Wind? Something that could streamline and simplify the process (no need for external keyboard/mouse, etc) would be great.

i will check the msi wind and maybe modify the package with the findings...

at 60% download right now...

Different error in verbose though, now stuck at:


Ps: Safe mode still boots

why did you install experimental package?

i only told you to install fix 1, not the both... you installed wrong package as i see which explains why you have acpi and apic versions wrong... all your problems... (how i know it is because you have intelspeedstep problem which is installed with the experimental package... i told you from the beginning, you installed wrong packages, and gave me wrong answers...

if you can boot using safemod, you can install the fix one package only and solve the problem!

Sorry mate is that at me? or Pezmc?

pezmc

anyways, i will finish download tonight and hopefully test it myself tomorrow, to see what the deal is... if you guys installed correct files, as you mention, it may very well be another driver meddling with the system... which i dont know yet, but i have set my system to test anything 3 partitions so without bricking anything i will test the msiwind package and see how it goes and tell you what the rotten egg is that is causing the trouble...

Hi,

Just wonder if i can replace the USB DVDROM to USD Flash drive.

thanks.

ah ok, well i'm gonna try and see if i can sort out the msiwindosx86 problem that some of us seem to have been having, i've been looking over the kexts, and replaced the files as mentioned above by yourself, but still seem to be having the problem, gonna try a fresh install again and double check that i press fix 1 and then see how it goes then.

I didn't install the experimental package. I am certain.
Reinstalling fix 1 made no difference it still says you need to restart you computer.

Verbose is stuck at:
Waiting on <dict Id="0"><key>IOProviderClass</key><string ID="1">IOService</string.<key>BSD Name</key><string ID="2">disk0s3</string></dict>

This is getting very strange!

the options mentioned in the guide should install the correct files i mentioned already... if they are selected correctly...

if you select the experimental package, it install also the newer version of files which i didnt test yet!, put it there for future testing...

however since he replaced the correct files now, you see the other error, speedstep meaning that he actually installed both packages (experimantal and teh fix 1)

fix 1 is first install correct files, but experimental reinstalls wrong files...

see where i m going?

pezmc: use transmac, and go to drivers folder, and find and delete intelenhancedspeedstep.kext and appleacpibatterymanager.kext but you will still have some more issues.... next if you can boot, than you can install only fix1 package and it will sort out your problems once for all! (also on your selection i see 9.5.1 kernel, not the 9.5.0 i said in my guide... i m not quite sure if u ve done it all correct? or have some funcy bootloader in this msiwindos

if those above doesnt sort out your problems, you will have to wait for tomorrow, because i m still downloading the package, until i finish and install, i cant see what is inside msiwindosx...

thats why i dont like to try so many distros... once you get into many, you have figure out too many other things that causes the trouble... i used jas because i know how it works... and it works just fine, and at the end, you have very nice working OSX...

why i prefer jas or kalyway releases is that they use main osx intact... only additional drivers added, others usually unpack original packages and compact them into other named packages... which later causes suid errors and some other unknown issues...

Hi Mysticus C*, I used msiwindosx86.iso also and I got another problem, my NC10 keeps reboot after apply the update files.

What I did is....install the mac os, then use your NC10 all-in-one installer to install stage 1, then reboot. After reboot, I install the official combo update 10.5.5, and then install NC10 all-in-one installer stage 3 with drivers which you mention in the great user guide, after this I reboot the system. It shows 2 error message in the darwin menu, which are about bios and acpi, sorry for that I forgot to take a screen shot for you, and now it just reboot without any error message.

I'm going to reinstall the os and do the same steps again, see if there's any change.

i m aware of the msiwindosx86 issue already by now...

i m going to install it and see what the rotten egg is...

i referred in my guide using JAS DVD and it looks like everyone is using OPPOSITE...

so will check it out as well, but I am not so sure why everyone so like to use something else when the guide is clearly stated it used JAS...

Once again telling you, i will check what is wrong with msi wind version, by tomorrow, it would be easier to keep everyone in the same track but seems like not that easy...

lol I've tried the update again, seems to be the same problem when i've definately pressed fix 1 so rather strange, otherwise i love the whole package that you've done when using Jas, works perfectly mate, thanks again. i think the whole reason people are using the msiwindosx86 is because it comes without the need to use a usb keyboard and mouse, ah some people don't have access to one and some people are just plain lazy, but i do recommend to anyone going to attempt to use the install package, just get your hands on a usb keyboard and mouse and the whole update etc will run a helluva lot smoother if you just use the Jas install and the usb keyboard and mouse!

usb keyb mouse is only used for once in the reg process and installing update, rest is smooth as butter... but will see tomorrow with msi

usb keyb mouse is only used for once in the reg process and installing update, rest is smooth as butter... but will see tomorrow with msi

more questions cause i'm not sure what to buy macbook or samsung nc 10


a) how is the overall performance ? itunes / iphoto / adium / firefox ?

is it necessary to create so many partitions like you did in the guide ?

I chose to use MSI windows because everything except the lan and mic works OTB.
No weird partitioning of drives needed either!

We need an NC10+MSI install package.
Do you know where the people who compiled the MSI iso "hang out"?

Yep, you're right.. having to update the guide multiple times, one for each mirror, is a bit frustrating.. that's why I asked you first..
I'm pretty happy with rapishare since i don't use it that much, so that's not a big deal..
Regards,
Riccardo



Hi Pezmc,

I think you can find them at forums.msiwind.net

it is not nice of you to say things like "weird partitioning" or everything except bla bla bla works OTB...

weird partitioning part is completely not understood, and probably will no be appreciated until i finish the clone guide and you start using the osx as long as i did! You just dont seem to understand! In the guide i already mentioning if you have doubts you can ask questions about it! I usually write my guides not for one day use! Well of course if your intention is for short term, that is different story.

You only need to install osx once... and once my guide is completely finished, you will see why you would not need to worry about bricking osx with those weird partitioning!

The choice of doing things differently is up to person's expectations. You are welcomed to use anything else for your liking, but that doesnt make your decision to say not nice things about other recommendations before you even know what it is!

I m here to help people as well, nc10 is a fun project and will evolve over time and not over night... Sometimes too much convenience cause trouble in people's learning and their systems.

Another thing is that you dont need nc10+msi package! NC10 has to be separate due to the update procedure not the install... which you dont seem to understand the process of what is going on in the background of all these said things...

If you prefer short term convenience over long term pleasure that is your choice, but i dont like people to say bad things about what i do when they dont even know what i do them for... I do things for long term and make it as noob friendly as possible, not for one person's liking and one off fun...

Mysticus C*, of course you're right.. you're doing some great work and we can just thank you for all your efforts.
I agree we don't need windosx86 iso but it would be nice to have internal keyboard working since I don't have a usb keyboard lying around. Do you think it would be hard to add this feature? I'd be glad to be of some help but I'm new to osx86.. anyway I'll have a look and see if I can contribute to this project.
regards,
riccardo

i will talk to Jas, about PPF, to add this addition... or i will do it myself...

for the msiwindosx problems...

if what i see in the installer of msiwindos is right, it is installing boot132, which is using an additional extensions or extensions folder to load... it is most likely the reason why those unexpected drivers are being loaded...

i will test this as soon as i finish installing it on another hdd...

the only thing that people really need for msiwindos is the usb keyb mouse issue, if the right ps2 driver is installed in first instance, there will not be a need... also usb key/mouse is only needed for the first booting, after registration and the update install, no more needed...

GOOD NEWS>>>

i figured out how to add custom packages to a dvd... will make a ppf for Jas, not the msiwind (this complicates things as it is using boot132)

i will test it and release the ppf, for people who has Jas DVD... so you will not need to use a usb keyb/mouse... and all the drivers that will install will work OTB as well...

but you will still need to use NC10 packages for updates so that you can retain drivers back...

Note: I will strip down the Jas release to only necessary choices that are needed for NC10... i hope everyone is ok with it... there is comes your SamsungOSX86...

Thanks for your hard working!
I'm downloading the Jas dvd, does it means I can stop it and wait for your new release? or I can make a new iso later with your ppf?

you will need the Jas DVD.iso, once i finish the PPF, you will just apply it, and you will have JAS+PPF=Stripped down Samsung NC10 DVD



fingers crossed but time is needed a bit

wow! great news Mysticus C*!!
Just to be sure.. ppf will be against JaS_OSx86_10.5.4_Client_Server_Intel_SSE2_SSE3, right?

it's cool man!
big hands to you

yeah exactly!

i m editing the choices and trimming it down... at the moment...

should i just leave server addition intact? or should i trim it as well?

just to make this install plain clean osx client...?

what do you think guys?

I'd go for a client only install.. but maybe others would like to see a server install as well..

hi, i am having trouble installing the whole thing
i downloaded jas and did everything (twice meanwhile) exactly as you wrote in the pdf-guide.
after i installed the 10.5.5 update (without restart) i installed the drivers + stage 3 and then did the restart.

the machine keeps on restarting over and over,the apple logo appears for a second. when i start with -s -v i get some text stuff but i cant read it because its to fast.
it seems that its reacting exactly as the msiwind installer iso. (i am 100% sure that i am using the jas.)

on my 2nd attend i added an extra restart after installing stage1 (as you suggested on the biketown page), still the same

you must have done something wrong...

i did the guide as i install and run everything... every step...

so you are doing one of the steps wrong...

boot using -v to see if you can catch any error?

also what options did you choose? customize section...

I've downloaded and tried a 'switch.sh.zip' script - but this also didn't succeed in switching audio to the headphones... it just made the speaker output much less loud when switched.

If anyone has a working sound-switching solution, even if it is a script, please let me know of a download location!



I'll send you the one I have (from boot-132), since this doesn't have any post-resume problems.



shades will make the screen appear less bright by applying a CoreImage filter, but it won't actually reduce the LED brightness and so won't increase battery life at all. Ideally, we'd discover some way to really alter the backlight brightness.

(There is obviously some mechanism to achieve this, because if booted on batteries the backlight will switch to full brightness as OSX starts... we just need to reverse this)

that is what i thought, so i gave it a 2nd try :/

there is no error that i can see, no yellow text as on the msi-error. i tried to make a photo, but the iphone quality is way to bad... is there an option to stop instead of rebooting?


exactly the options that you described in the guide.

do you want me to copy any files (with the help of hfsexplorer) ?

srcshelton: appreciate it if you can send me the file quickly, because i m making a ppf right now, and was almost assembling everything together... waiting for your file...

yoursxs: explain exactly what is happening... and what happened?

i m asking this because majority of the newbies, says they do everything right, but they usually give misleading information as they miss some of the things...

i have installed the jas exactly i explained over the guide... nothing more nothing less... it should have worked... so down to some reasons by your side, it has some either wrong choice or wrong order of steps...

did you read my guide in one part, that i explain bootloader error!, so you need to use dvd or boot into xp to enable the active partition as well...?

This may be a n00bish question, but I did the whole install and it works like a dream. One thing I noticed though is I don't get any of the multi-touch stuff with the touchpad. Should I look for synaptic drivers for mac, or is there something else I need to do to get this working (if it can at all)?

i m not sure anyone tried multi-touch capability with the netbooks yet (you can do it in xp though)
one reason not to use it is touchpad is way too small to accommodate multi-touch gestures! even if you fit your fingers, it will not be very comfortable moving around in the tiniest space possible...

i m not saying you should not try to or it will not work... it just wont be comfortable to use...

installation went fine, i created my user account and i continued on page 104 till the end. as i said before, i have not done a restarted after the combo update, i left the window open and installed the driver + stage3 of your installer. then i have chosen to restart the system. thats it.


i am a coder, so i know what you are talking about, that is why i've done it the way you wrote it in the guide.
could it be because i do have the german nc10? could it be that it has a different bios ? my bios is 02ca as well as micom version. + i do have 2 gb of memory.


yes i did that. when tried it the 2nd time i was not able to activate the partition anymore (i guess it was still active)

yoursxs:

you did 3 stages right?

first run nc10 once with only stage 1 option, when finished, just closed the window?

official update, not restarted, just minimized?

run the nc10 again, with the shown options in the guide? and finally restarted?

correct? (also bios settings correct?)

if everything done correct it should have worked, i doubt that the bios revision will have any effect at the moment, since you are able to install it and boot to desktop, showing no problem...

i m just saying, that you may have missed something earlier, in blink of an eye? would u mind reinstalling?

I would suggest a client only install also. Leopard server includes a number of processes and packages which would never see use on a day to day basis but would use up disk space and processor cycles regardless.

jap 100%. i just added a reboot on my 2nd try after nc10 installer stage1 (booted up fine)
bios settings are the same as well.
i resized my C partition (already a couple of days ago) to have more space for os x, so the last hfs (non 20gb) partition that i created is much bigger than in your guide, but i guess thats no problem.

i'll reinstall tomorrow

are you able to boot -v -x

or is it just restarting instantly after initial load of drivers? or how?

It was actually working on my nc10 when it came to zooming in and out. I also installed a program that would let me two finger scroll.

Friend of mine has the eeePc 1000H and has all kinds of crazy multitouch - 2 finger, 3 finger, etc.

While it is small, it'd be something I'd like to mess with, especially for 2 finger scrolling on webpages and such. I figure, since this is a synaptic pad, it should work (thought I just don't know how for sure in os x lol).

when you say "it was working" are you referring to "in OSX it was working?" or "in windows xp it was working?"

because i already mentioned it is working windows xp...

but osx, you either patch some drivers, or use programs like you mentioned, but like i said, it is only good for two finger gestures... i will look at possibilities but not right now, priority is to make the Jas dvd an NC10 dvd

OK GUYS, I M ALMOST DONE WITH PPF,

i m going to make the iso, burn it to dvd, test it on the system, and if everything is ok, release it in BIKE TOWN

wow I don't check the board for a few hours and a fair amount of progress has been made, can't wait to see the NC10 package dvd, hopefully that'll stop most people complaining about things not working etc and save you some time answering questions.
if you need some one to test it out let us know and i don't mind giving it a spin.

Yeah, sorry, I meant in Win XP. I'm really only interested in trying to get the 2 finger gestures honestly.

You do what you need to do man. I'm not asking you to look into it, I was just asking if it was possible. I can try and figure it out on my own and let you continue doing the awesome job you're already doing.

everything looks promising at the moment, i made the changes and dvd is custom now

IT IS ALIVE!!

here is a screen cap


guess what? it will be installed by KITT j/k

now making the dvd iso and will create the ppf after that...

I am actually going to buy an NC10 because of your outstanding work. Well done my friend, well done!

I've already got an NC10 and after seeing what can be done with it by Mysticus C* I know of atleast another 4 people getting one and wanting me to install osx86! these machines really are one of the best ones to use for osx86 all you need is another wifi card which is cheap (around £15 or so) which works straight out the box, installed mine this morning only takes 5mins and done.

quick question mate, with the custom install that your making, we're still gonna need to run the update to get to 10.5.5 so would we use the original update method that you created before the nc10 or the one thats part of the nc10 install package.
