CDuv Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Hello, I've been trying for about 2 weeks to install Snow Leopard on my netbook, a Asus Eee PC 1005HAG, which specifications are: Intel Atom N270 1.60GHz Chipset: Mobile Intel 945GSE Express, ICH7-M AHCI, HDD: 160GB SATA Hitachi RAM: 1GB DDR2 PC2-5300 Display: Intel GMA 950 on 1024x600 (WSVGA) No Optical drive Network: Atheros AR8132 (Ethernet Gigabit), Atheros AR9285 (Wireless 802.11 b/g/n), Bluetooth 2.1 I've tried to follow the MacEee guide but for an unknown reason Snow Leopard won't install to internal SATA HDD: takes age to fail. Installer log says something like: no or invalid system receipts found on /Volumes/... Error writing cache to/volumes/Mac OS/Library/Caches/com.apple.FindSystemFiles.plist Failed to enumerate /Volumes/Mac OS/Library/Caches cannot prune...... I've managed to install SL wih and on an external USB disk drive: 2 partitions, one for the SL DVD Retail dump and another to install. Seems stable but not totally. Even from there, sometimes, Finder and Disk Utility doesn't find my internal drive... Note: I have a available original Mac with Leopard install to help in achieving that SL installation. Thanks for you help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDuv Posted September 27, 2010 Author Share Posted September 27, 2010 I tried another tutorial, way more generic: Installing Snow Leopard for OSX86 from Prasys’ Blog. But I can't even start the SL installer: I have a panic because of "Unsupported CPU: family: 0x6, model = 0xf, stepping = 0xb"@/SourceCache/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement/AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement-90/pmProcessor.c21 AppleIntelCPUPowerManagementt(It may not be the CPU family and stepping, I've forgot to write it down so I copy/pasted some found with Google. But the error is this one, not a "time out" issue). It's weird because I thought that PC_EFI's goal was to help avoiding these base compatibility issues.

Take NBI (netbookinstaller), it resolves the problems with Atom CPU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
