IncognitoMan Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Hello, Installed using the later method ( updating to 10.6.7 and use [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] 3.4 ) onto a external drive and had great success ( I believe my only mistake was choosing 6.1 on system rather than 4.1....which could explain the kernel panic.... ) The only problem I seem to have is that either A.) it's in 32bit mode so its not reading the rest of my ram... or B.) it's just not picking up the other 2gb stick Should I redo the install? or is there a way to force read all 6gb of ram? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

franula Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Ok i have been following this post pretty closely for about two weeks now and am happy to say that after many installs of mac i have finally gotten the mic to work. What doesnt seems to work for me still is: Sleep Keyboard Backlight Wireless N So here is how i got the mic to work. Go to /System/Library/Extensions/****.kext and delete all kext with HDA in it except AppleHDADisabler.kext After that use KextHelper to install the attached kext file. Run Kext Utility. Then reboot. That worked for me, Hope it helps everyone else. Cant wait till the rest it all working. worked great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driftingbunnies Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 For those of you who used the voodooHDA to get the mic working, do you experience clicks during your music? When i'm listening, I noticed that the sound quality is worse than when I was using the AppleHDA in conjunction with the voodoo one. @madr0n Think you can update the dsdt for me? driftingbunnies_send_me.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

driftingbunnies Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 I guess the only thing that I only want is sleep to work correctly. It will go to sleep but when it wakes, the screen will stay black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackxlj Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 last question for a fully working hackbook, is there anyway to get the camera working? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuistisTrepe Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Ok, so after many failed attempts to get this right (usually ending with the grey screen with the power button of death telling me to power off the machine and signaling to me that I have to start the process all over again), I'm thinking I'm to getting this down. I hadn't caught on at first about not only leaving the G73.aml on the desktop when running [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url], but also putting it in the extras folder and copying the folder to root. The lingering question here is what to do with replacing the boot file. My knowledge of the mac file system blows, but I've learned enough to plug in the command in terminal to show hidden files. I just can't seem to locate the directory for the boot file that needs to be replaced with the OP's. I think those where the last two things remaining for me to finally get my hackintosh up and ready. 1) [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] 2) format extended journaled and install SL 3) reboot off [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] 4) install 10.6.7 5) run G73 patcher 6) copy the newly created .aml into extras folder 7) copy extras folder into root 8) select the successful configs already stated in this thread into [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] 9) run [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] 10) everything should theoretically work, reinstall other half of memory taken out If any of this looks wrong, please feel free to correct me. Boot, what to do about boot though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuistisTrepe Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 What about boot? I don't really understand your question As stated by the OP, doesn't the boot file need to be replaced? I can't seem to find the directory where its located. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackxlj Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 As stated by the OP, doesn't the boot file need to be replaced? I can't seem to find the directory where its located. i didnt touch the boot file,i installed sl, restarted,updated to 10.6.7, installed [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] and the assorted kexts, installed chameleon, copied the extra folder over to root, restarted, and now the chameleon menu asks if i want to boot into my osx hdd or my windows hdd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driftingbunnies Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 There is no need to replace the boot file after using the ATI drivers in the new [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]. For those of you who are still having trouble please look here. I will try to put down as much detail as possible but because i'm not reinstalling at the moment, it might be off. 1. Prepare hard drive for installation. Backup all important information in the hard drive you are installing into. If you want, you can remove the other hard drive just in case. Do not need to remove memory. 2. insert [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] 3. insert SL disk, press F5, and install SL 4. Make sure hard drive is reformatted to GUID partition. 5. Install OSX, restart 6. insert [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] and select OSX 7. open up [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] but do not install yet 8. Install combo update 10.6.7 9. do not restart after combo update. Install [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] 10. select [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] for now, with the voodoo PS2 options, SATA, ATI kernal, Macbook pro definition, and the OSX software (kexthelper etc) 11. Install chameleon and prefpane 12. Replace Extra folders into root of OSX drive 13. Restart 14. Install rest of Kexts (voodooHDA, Applehdadisabler, LAN, wifi) 15. Place DSDT in extra folder. in prefpane of chameleon, select DSDT that you will be using. There is no need for the boot file anymore and the ATI rom file found in the original extra folder by Pavol is not needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikedmor Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Ok let me state that after following driftingbunnies method sleep still does not work for me, and im still having issues finding any network that is running on wireless N. Sleep is honestly the biggest thing for me. Once i get sleep working Windows is getting completely removed off of my computer. I did notice something different after adding DSDT in the prefpane. My monitor never came back on just like normal, but after i restarted my computer it began to restore back to how it was when i put it to sleep. only issue was my wifi, touchpad, keyboard, and usb ports were not working anymore.

Sigh....well I got greedy and went with UserDSDT and now I have a Mac install that goes into safe mode, but Kernel Panics when booting normally. I suppose it might just be better for me to start from scratch rather than trying to fix what I have going on right now. Alright, [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] it is then. I'll stick to the order you posted here in regards to copying extras over to root AFTER running [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url].

Well the sleep doesn't work for anybody. Mine will "sleep" and on wake, I just have to restart it so there's no point in sleeping. Might as well shut it down. Also, the DSDT will only work if you have the same stuff as me. So it would be better if you patch your own DSDT or ask maldon to help you out. Someone mentioned a G73 patcher so maybe there's one out right now. I never was able to fix the wifi problem so I just went out and bought a compatible card. If you really want to get sleep to work, you can help us by learning DSDT edits and figuring out which what works for you. It would help out tremendously.
