the_defiant Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Thank you for creating the scripts and sharing them with the rest of us! Mediafire isn't working atm, I can't get those scripts. I'd be more than grateful if I could get those files somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackice Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 ditto double ditto. If the semthex kernel could be slapped in, as well as ATI/NVIDIA titan, it would be even better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asapreta Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 How is the project now? Any prebuilt images already. Mine didn´t work. Will try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B612 Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Any news about the project of a live DVD? Has anybody succeeded in installing 10.4.8 with 8.8.1 kernel on VMware? I couldn't, in my case it doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbmkgd Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I did succeed a few months ago, following modbin's instructions. Too busy at other things since. Haven't tried his latest fixes though. If there are problems, it might have to do with instructions (mis)interpretations, so perhaps people should ask about clarifications or details, which would take less bytes to transfer And a prebuild for one might not work for another (see how many questions JaS receives after the release of a dvd!)

BlackCH Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 (edited) Well I got it almost working.... It boots (native) (takes some time), but I cant login.... I get "netinfo connection failed for 127.0.0.1/local..." error, and then my password doesnt work... I've used the last root.zip (post #47).... I'll try starting again from zero Any advices?

I'll try starting again from zero Any advices? the netinfo error is ok but it should autologin instead of showing you the loginwindow. did you setup your root user to autologin? login:root password:bootcd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackCH Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 (edited) Thanks for replaying...! I think I messup the 'root user' part of the thing. Im trying all again now. I'll post my results. Do you mean the pasword MUST be 'bootcd'? or could be anything else? Thanx again. EDIT: Just wondering, I had a problem in the past when I first tryed to install OSX on my laptop from the DVD drive; "'/com.apple.boot.plist' not found" (due some hardware configuration I guess). I made it work anyway installing from VMware to native partiton, but my question now is; wouldnt be possible to 'fix' this by tweaking the boot sector on the install dvd?.....

Do you mean the pasword MUST be 'bootcd'? or could be anything else? The root password is bootcd. The netinfo database inside my files contains it.

BlackCH Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Ok, didnt go much further. I set the 'root user' to auto login. Password 'bootcd'. Reboot to check. Everything seems OK. Now, if I use the RC script from the 'PART II' guide (post #35), The boot goes fine. Right after loading the screen drivers (Titan), 'preloading window server' message. The screen goes to blue and then I get the login window, but no way to login (password doesnt work). If I use the last RC script from post #47, I get 'netinfo connection failed for 127.0.0.1/local' error and then after loading the screen drivers the blue screen is not coming and I get; 'unable to read configuration file /private/etc/cups/cupsd.config' '......login window started' '.....login window security agent' '.....dock updater could not create dock fixup preferences' '.....unable to open /var/root/library/widgets/' '.....method_cgsevent in class NSevent is obsolete and will be removed....." In both cases I tryed deleting and not deleting caches & preferences.... I'll keep on trying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackCH Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 (edited) YESSSSSS! It worked!! Used the complete zip from post #47, and followed to the letter the guides.... Thanks modbin for sharing this!! I'll see if I can mod the boot track so I can use the dvd in my laptop without need of VMWARE ("'/com.apple.boot.plist' not found" boot problem) Edited February 21, 2007 by blackchungo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackCH Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 the method definitely works. I would like to include a reduced version of the OS X installer. I put the system/installation folder with some packages inside the dvd but I dont know how to execute the installer.... would this be possible at all?

NeSuKuN Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 It would be nice to post the tutorial in the how-to section or in the wiki with all the updated files and instructions, and clearing the points where the rest had doubts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
