Mr.Enrich Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Anybody tried this?!I'd love to know if it works over a clean install of Jas 10.4.7 DVD?And do i need to do something special(i mean is it simply install the update or i have to backup/edit something?). My system is: AMD Sempron 2800+ @ 1.76Ghz 1GB RAM Motherboard:ASUS K8n with nforce3 chipset,onboard realtek audio and nforce networking controler. Video: ASUS A9250/128MB Edit i just saw it says : TEST version use it at your own risk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefWiggum Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 Dont even bother !!. All windows became black during install. Failed to even boot after install. Probably wait for a proper AMD version to be posted here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 it Worked for me. Just one panic, but I booted with -x -s options an then the next startup doesnt require the -s option like before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Enrich Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Hi would it work for me!?My configuration is posted above.And some instructions what to do(i'm really a newbie ).Also i have some problems after installing from jas 10.4.7 DVD(Spotlight doesn't work,when i click about this mac it appears the system makes quick logout/login),i think i will install from 10.4.6 HOTISO wich i had before and then update to 10.4.7(the only problem i noticed then was the system profiler wich said "There was an error obtaining this information" at the generl tab,all other info was ok) after that apply that 10.4.8 update.

myzar Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Dont even bother !!. All windows became black during install. Failed to even boot after install. Probably wait for a proper AMD version to be posted here. i bet it doesn't work newcastle core doesn't have sse3 and the torrent says it needs sse3. If your chip doesn't have sse3 forget it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xtraa Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Confirmed it is running with SSE3 on my socket 939 AMD. Thanks Just installed the release - and everything worked as it should. No panic, and Callisto QE and CI are working, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noxdg Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 What's the exact file name? I searched on Pirate Bay for AMD 10.4.8 UPDATE, got the torrent, but it's downloading as MacOSXUpd10.4.8Intel.pkg.zip. Somehow it's grabbing to the wrong file.

cbmkgd Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 It's the right file, just the same name as the original package (don't remember why). Was always like that, afaik. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noxdg Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Thanks. Woo hoo...1.2k/sec with a 198 meg file. I'll have it 24 hours. Too bad it's not on Usenet...I grabbed the whole install DVD in less than 30 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
