Installed on my Q9400, GB Ep-45 Extreme, works perfectly, using patched DSDT and 3 kexsts, MacMan Realtek driver, FakeSMC and Alc889 enabler.
Feels faster than lion for some reason...or is it just me

Can you share your exact method of installation?
I am having no luck on my GB EP45-DS3R
I have Lion running sweet (except sleep) so I have all the kexts etc for that.

For the full tutorial, refer to http://thetecherra.c...tart-to-finish/.

Basically, you'll be preparing your USB flash drive to install 10.8 with on your computer. It's basically the same process as with Lion, but with a few tweaks and stuff.

I try to follow The tutorial..i manage to pass all the booting process but when it reach to the installation point choosing the language, it goes KP. any idea about it? thanks mate .

thanks! i have installed MLION on an SSD running fast, everything is working (so far) except the network, i have copy the kexts from lion but it didn't helped, my mono is ABIT IP35 pro using Marvell chip...anyone can help me on that? or having the same mono with working kexts to share?
Thanks

I can't seem to boot into the USB drive for some reason, the process goes like this: Boot into Chameleon -> type "-v" -> wall of text (too fast to read any errors) -> black screen into immediate system reboot. Is there some BIOS setting that I might be getting wrong? Am I only supposed to have a certain amount of RAM plugged in for this install?

Thanks for the great guide!

Preview 2 install crashes right after language selection. On the exact same hardware, Preview 1 was installing fine. Though I had some problems with Apple apps (Remoider, Mail, Safari, etc) crashing on start.

Same for me. But thats Chameleon Bootloader problem - i used latest ML ready 1890 and even listed as ML ready it reboots if ML boot.
I used 1890 ML Cham build .pkg , with DP1 i used older cham ML build which didnt reboots.
I use now older ML ready build 1831 and no more reboot (after kext loading infos in -v)


But now i get SHUTDOWN after selecting the language in first install menue?!

my specs is latitude e5500
any external hard can be detected but can't install to them
so why my hard doesn't appear in disk utility at first step of installing
& my SATA mode is AHCI

remove all of your AppleIntel graphics drivers and replace with your SL's working graphics drivers

When you say replace with SL's working graphics you mean Snow Leopard (which I don't have installed obviously) or System Library? And replace theme where? put them in Extra folder? This folder is currently empty.

Thanks for your help.

This is an Intel i5 520M Arrandale with Intel HD Graphics

I followed this guide with two exceptions:
1. I replaced IOPCIFamily.kext with this one: http://netkas.org/?p=1072, because otherwise it was freezing "PCI configuration begin".
2. I added two kexts from my Lion installation to enable PS keyboard and mouse.

Now my installation stops at

Sandbox: mDNSResponder (103) deny mach-lookup com.apple.distributed_notifications@1v3

This happens on two very different machines (one of which runs Lion flawlessly).

Any suggestions on how to go further with the installation process?

Now my installation stops at

Sandbox: mDNSResponder (103) deny mach-lookup com.apple.distributed_notifications@1v3

Now I'm pretty sure it was an illusion. In fact it freezes on "DSMOS has arrived". Deleted all nvidia kexts and run with "-k" switch but still no go.

Thanks.

probably the OS you're using is Damaged.
