Thanks again for your help Sincerelly

Hey guys, hey mysticus,

is it possible to install only the kexts from your new update packages I need? As I told you I don't want my NC10 be as a NC10 at the system profiler for some reasons.
In this case (and as you told me) I only want to install the updates for sound, graphic and so but not for EFI or Bios.

If I install your new kexts with kexthelper it has no effect. Could you tell me how I can do this?

Ok, So mysticus pm me your email I have a kext that may allow the multitouch support on our nc10 trackpad. its 1.2 megs I think it is something to look at...

Mysticus, I run into a problem here. I used the DVDupdate10.5.6 to make a NC10-10.5.6.iso, but whenever I use ddmac to install, it says "Install Failed" "The installer could not locate the data it needed to install the software..."
I tried to redone to whole process almost 10 times now, and still having the same error...any idea?

Oh, forgot to mention. Here is what I did:
- use ddmac to installl nc10-10.5.5.iso
- boot into OSX successfully
- copy nc10-10.5.5.iso to the root partition (OSX in this case)
- copy DVDupgrade 10.5.6.mpkg and 10.5.6Combo to the root partition (osx again)
- run the package to upgrade nc10 10.5.5 to nc10 10.5.6
- use ddmac to install the nc10 10.5.6.iso

Dear Mysticus,

all is working perfectly !!! I only launch XP for take the screenshot you ask me... and reboot !
And now all is working perfectly ! ....

I install frenck.pkg to have french language, I follow the tuto for quicksilver !! all work perfectly, sound and mic too

Just 2 little détails : I don't have option for touchpad in "System preferences" in keyboard/mouse !!! Touchpad doesnt appear (but it works) in english language (not in french) !
I will like to see the option to activate double click on tap !

The second thing is when I'm in french langage I have no access to keyboard/mouse option ! I need to be in french langage to see it...

Thanks for you help ! You're the best really !

Is the same problem I had with USB DVD install.
Robi

i doubt you know what you are doing...

dvdupgrade 10.5.6 is used inside inside an osx install you dont ddmac it!

it upgrades a isos/ddmac partition that are mentioned

i explained the upgrade procedure! many times...

place 10.5.6 combo update in the root
place the iso in the root (iso= original jas?, nc10--ppf applied jas, nc10 10.5.5) with original names (if you anyhow changed the iso name it will not work!!!)
and run the dvd upgrade procedure... step 1 choosen, step2 only one option that correspend to your need choosen, step 3 choosen...

thats it!

tazevil: i m still looking into the issue for toucpad thing, but busy as well, it will take a bit of time...

darkgemini: tell me your current partitions? (for example, OSX1 your main osx installation, OSX2 data etc?..., Samsung NC10--ddmac partition name?)

tell me exactly where you copied the files? into your current working osx partition or into the ddmac partition? also what is the name of ddmac partition read?

what is the file name of the iso you upgrade?

update news: with a little help from someone, we ll be solving the sleep issue as well guys

more news tomorrow

my current partition settings are:
- first partition 20GB for XP Pro
- second Partition 30GB for OSX Main
- third partition 80GB NTFS for storage
- fourth partition 4.7GB FAT32 for ddmac named "Install"
- left over is unallocated

I copied all the necessarily files to OSX Main
ISO files name is SamsungNC10-10.5.6.iso
ddmac read partition as SamsungNC10-10.5.6

the file name of the iso I upgrade from is SamsungNC10-10.5.5.iso

I currently run the checksum to see if it match

update: MD5 doesn't match, something went wrong and I have no idea what went wrong...will try to redownload the combo update from Apple, and run the whole process one more time...

Hello,

Long time lurker, first time poster.

Just to add my thoughts on the MD5 problems. I think perhaps the problem seems to be that everyone is referring to the *.iso checksum like there is only one iso. Possibly the differences in MD5 could be due to the fact that the MD5 will be different depending on the selection made during the DVDupgrade package process. I would guess that ddmac iso would have a different MD5 to the other two DVD iso options. I could be wrong, but just a thought...

Hi guys !

To retrieve the trackpad preference pane after update to 10.5.6, I found this http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=142466

Hope this helps...

darkgemini:

what was the full name of your iso that you used to upgrade? (jas original? jas+ 1st ppf? nc10 10.5.5?)

1) you copied your first iso (the one that you are trying to upgrade) to root of osx main?
2) you copied 10.5.6 combo update to root of osx main?
3) you used the dvdupgrade mpkg to install osx main?

can you answer these questions?

also md5 will be different due to file sizes/dates and additional temp files being created inside iso image wen mounted...

sim01: correct md5 will be different due to reasons i mentioned above

loa2000: i will look into that and sure i will make one installer for that if it fixes the issue easy
note: it doesnt fix the issue as it is....

THANK YOU MYSTICUS!! I am completely in awe of all the great work you have done!

I got an nc10 from a business partner for xmas as a thanks for the work I did for him this year. I had been telling him how cool it is that you can run OSX on it!

I have a couple of questions after reading the guide.

First, I want to buy a Leopard license for the nc10. Does it matter which build I buy? Will I use the disk at all for registering it? Ebay has some deals.

My nc10 is original, I have just downloaded the Official Combo disk, do I need NC10 DVD/ISO (Jas+NC10 PPF) or NC10 10.5.5 DVD/ISO (Jas+NC10 PPF) you mention in the guide?

if you have nothing in your hand right now: Download the torrent of the nc10 10.5.6 iso...
if you have original Jas 10.5.4 in hand, download the ppf and apply it with ppf=o=matic

i wouldnt go the ebay way to buy commercial software! go to a mac store and buy leopard disk, and you cant buy leopard license for a PC, but you can buy leopard disk... and you can install retail leopard disk as well if you use boot-132 methods but you will need some drivers... like the ones inside 10.5.6 update installer... but for boot132 methods you will need to do a bit of reading to understand... also i dont support it in my topic although it is a better option in the long term, but i know many noobs around that are able to brick things easily, so i dont wanna mess with dealing two installation methods...

could someone point me to the scripts for the brightness?
I'm using ideneb 10.5.5 at the moment, it works quite well so I don't want to unistall the whole thing just for a script

check bike town link

Hi

i've been lurking and reading up on all this for a long time, and although a newbie have been realy careful and thorough, but now have a problem I can't find an answer to in this thread. Hope you can help with this...

Downloaded JAS 10.5.4.
Upgraded ISO to 10.5.6 using latest upgrade package, coupled with the combo update (resulting in Samsung-NC10-10.5.6.iso)
Followed guide to partitioning and used DDMAC with samsung iso
Bios settings set exactly as shown in pics
booted into OSX installer and formatted an osx partition as HFS Journaled.
installation seems to be going absolutely fine until it reaches time remaining 6 mins.

Then it hangs. Forever...

the only variable I can find which I've found no info on is when updating the original Jas 10.5.4 ISO, there was an option to update partition for DDMAC to 10.5.6. Does this need to be checked (I did check it, presuming if I were using DDmac i'd need to)

Any other ideas?
Any help appreciated

hello all and merry Xmas !!


I've installed osx 10.5.6 but now I've lost the touchpad option...

I read the post from loa2000 but it seems a bit difficult for a noob like me


I've installed 10.5.6 via jas 10.5.4 and ppf nc10 , then upgrade to 10.5.5 and upgrade 10.5.6

no pb with brightness


international ; I change for french osx but I don' t have 100% french...

I've to DL jas 10.5.4 again because when I use MST MD5 (under xp) I don't have the same checksum number....


I've tried to patch jas 10.5.4 with nc10 10.5.6 ppf but the iso doesn't work

hello
first, 1000 * thx Mysticus C!!

Are there any Rapidshare links for nc10 jas 10.5.6?
Can anyone send me they in a PM , please?

thank you. und frohe Weihnachten aus Deutschland!

Hi there,

I would like to know if the original keyboard works ith osX ?
I've seen in the guide that we need to use a usb keybord..

Thanks a lot.

POST#1 is updated, to reflect concerns and problems regarding upgrade faults/failures/problems/questions...

Read it carefully!!!

install chud from bike town, and re run again...

Great work with the updates and Install Packs. I had a preinstalled NC10 OSX 10.5.5 from your previous PPF method and updated to 10.5.6 this AM. No issues with the upgrade process or the reinstall of the NC10 Drivers.

My one issue right now is with the brightness script -- it works properly (again, thanks for the guide) but I am getting neither your icons nor RedRooster's icons when I activate the Script via Quicksilver trigger. I ran the update icon PKG from biketown but have not been able to get the "window dressing" to go along with the Script.

did you see the page 105 in pdf guide carefully? show window is selected... did you have it enabled before you save the commands? if no?, delete both hotkeys, and apply it again... but make sure you follow the guide carefully... step by step for each hotkeys! and you will have the icon showing...

Had Show Window checked on both. Gave it a reboot and re-did the Hotkeys -- now it works. Not sure if it was the reboot or the redo, but all is well now. Many thanks.

it happens when you dont save it with "show window" option enabled first time, it happened to me too

I am at the formatting stage following the Pdf meticulously and the last drive says unallocated not free space....so I cant make it a logical drive not sure why
so I have a healthy 34.18GB non formatted disk and a 37.82 unallocated doesnt show up as green still black unallocated. (this is why I hate windows)

you need to make extended partition first >>> then create logical partitions in it with spesific sizes... read the guide carefully... (also my mistake there some slides mixed up i think )

create extended partition >> create logical partitions in the extended area... i will fix the slide over that area...

just to say I've got everything working as per Post 1 and it didn't take too long after I had burned the latest ISO.

I must have read all the postings on this thread three times over just to make sure I didn't do anything silly before doing the install.

The NC10 is even better now. I look forward to even more refinements to this project

enjoy mate

mysticus, thanx for the great work, i am going to install this on my nc10 as soon as i have completed the torrent.

I have the NC10 with built in 3G - Modem, has anyone tried this yet under osx?

THX Mysticus C*!

I have NC10_JaS.OSx86.10.5.6.Intel.SSE2.SSE3_Mysticus.iso (torrent) with an external drive installed.

After the first restart, I had continually restart. I then removed the external drive. The installation went further. The registration, I bypassed.

Thanks to your tutorials works even brightness control.

Barns times whether a solution for the integrated LAN / WLAN can find.

mbato: stock wifi has temp solution, which i highly not recommend, as it is very buggy solution... just get a dell dw 1490 or 1500 series wifi, and u will forget about wifi problem... however, lan has no driver support yet, someone is working on it, but dunno the progress yet...

epineprin: i dont know anyone here who has 3g built in nc10 here or none mentioned they had one... sorry no idea if it will work or not... just check the 3g oem provider whether they have os x support or not...

The full name of my iso that I used to upgrade is Samsung-NC10-10.5.5.iso
1. Yes, I copied my Samsung-NC10-10.5.5.iso to root of osx main
2. Yes
3. yes

But, never mind me Mysticus. I decided to go the other round which is using the Jas-to-NC10-10.5.6.ppf to upgrade the original Jas (had to pay Premium Account to get that file off RPS ). MD5 checked is matched with your, so I think I'm good to go now

if u say you did everything correctly it must have done it, but either you did a step wrong, or i may have a typo error in the scripts.... which i will check later... anyways ppf is the safest way...

Will install and let you know if everything goes well, and I believe it should be...Thank you very much for everything you did mate

5 Hours left for downloading the torrent for me, I will continue to seed until my wireless card shows up in the post and I switch to mac for good. There is a healthy amount of seeders atm, good work!

I think I have a handle on how to install but just to make sure... can I get a link to the PDF guide? I can't seem to find it!

Can't wait to see osx on the small screen!

I have problem with partition because I don't undestand how much space are the partition made,I feel stupid,what does green mean?

I found that there are certain AppleACPIBatteryManager.kext bundles going around which cause the sleep problem - I upgraded to what looked like a more recent update, and then found that sleep required a reboot to restart the OS.

Reverting to my existing version (possibly 1.0.14) both gives accurate battery stats and power management without any sleep issues.

I've found that with 10.5.6, AppleACPIPlatform.kext is no longer needed - and if anyone is having sleep issues, it might be worth giving alternative BatteryManager extensions a go.


Has this been tested on an NC10 (or, indeed, anything with a Synaptics pad) and worked?

Care to share, or do you have a download link handy?

Merry Christmass everyone!

Well, I messed up my nc10 trying to get the xp partition to be smaller. Then I tried the Samsung XP restore disk, which put me into a standard XP install that crashed halfway through. I cannot get the install to work.

Then I tried remaking the main partition in the XP installer and thart didin't work. The Samsung bios appears to need the recovery partition to be working in order to boot into your xp partition. I don't think mine is working. Does anyone know how to setup the Samsungs partitions so it will boot in XP? Any online resources?

I have an Acronis backup of the xp partition before I fooled with it, and Acronis runs and restores the disc image, but bios still says no operating system. The bios will not boot from the restored partition and there is no setting in bios to change boot drive.

I was so close to installing the new ISO too!

I have read the full thread and now got a NC10.
But after installation I only see the apple logo a second and it reboots.
I am form Germany and have read sth. about a trick for that but I can´t find it.
Does someone no on which site the solution is?

But maybe this is another Problem because I can´s even see the Welcome screen. Only the apple logo for a second.
Thanks

hello !!

Merry Xmas with your new NC10


I made a new iso with good jas's checksum and ppf 10.5.6
but I've the same problem than with jas 10.5.4 and the upgrade 10.5.5 and 10.5.6 :

I've lost the touchpad configuration..

How can I do (step by step : big noob ) in order to configure the touchpad ??


and THANKS AGAIN Mr Santa Mysticus Claus !!

Hum
Thanks a lot for your work Myst!

My osx works so fine in my NC10

Thanks a lot.

I just have a question,
Is it possible to use the trackpad (built for windows) on osx?

I explain, i would like to have a "@" when I press the "@" on my keybord ! etc etc...

Thanks a lot.

update news: loa2000's pointed solution for trackpad actually works, didnt realize it because i was looking for tracpad settings in keyboard/mouse, it actually puts a tracpad menu separate to system preferences!!! lol no wonder why i didnt see it...

people can do it manually or i will provide a solution (installer) for it if people are interested...
see the trackpad menu next to keyb/mouse menu

inside trackpad menu

I seem to have done something wrong with mine lol,
did the update to upgrade my 10.5.4 Jas dvd to the samsung 10.5.6 nc10 install, installation goes successfully, i've reformatted both my original osx install and my ddmac partition, install the nc10 install to the ddmac partition, however when i go to boot from start up i get hal.dll not found
so kinda confused on what it could be?
any help?

ps merry xmas to all

Definitely interested in the trackpad solution, it's acting a little eratic for my liking OTB

Everything installed great for me on my second attempt although I do have one small problem. I find that I have to hit F4 on startup to get the boot menu or else I just get a "OS not found" message (my heart sank when I first saw this). Is there anyway I can tidy this up so OSX boots automatically?

Cheers!

I am also interested in the trackpad solution.
But I have two other small problems.
1: How can I install the German language file.
I selected German as language but the main OS is still english.
2. I had an external monitor connected to the netbook and selected mirroring (or sth like that)
I got a crazy picture on both monitors.
I pluged the monitor off and everything was alright but when i connect the ex. monitor I always get this picture so I am not able to change mirroring. Is there an option to change this by key combination oder sth like that?
Hope you understand my english

Thanks

Which string did you edit/delete in the info.plist within the PrefPane? What value did you change VendorID to (if it was changed)?

right seem to have hit a problem with the upgraded iso, when i go to install it, it says installation files not found, anybody else have this problem when upgrading the iso and then using that to install it?
