Hello all,

 

I am trying to install on a HP DC7900 SFF.

 

First question is - I have seen this succeed over several different forums. I have iatkos Lion running now, but no sound or lan.

 

I have ordered a low profile GT210 card.. which should get me supported graphics.

 

I have seen several threads here talking about issues, I have seen several other places saying easy.

 

What is the status of this hardware. I have seen posts showing 10.10 on this.. but I also see posts of issues getting it running on Lion.

 

This forum is more open to all types of installs but T0nymak site and its utilities show their method.

 

Opinions?  I have been trying to get kexts .. and or DSDT files I have seen posted in other threads here.. but cant seem to dl them. HELP?

 

Edit - OK, found a kext for the lan - seems to work.  VoodooHDA that I found still says it has issues.. Im thinking that a usb soundcard for $10 that is plug and play is the way to go. Unless someone knows that the sound on this was eventually solved.

I have Yosemite running a DC 7700 using Chameleon and custom DSDT.aml, Sound is a problem but I solved that with a $10 USB sound device, Lan will work but at 100M only, if you want or need faster you could get a PCI supported lan card. the GT210 will get you the graphics you are looking for, its what I am using too.
