 Description
Mac OS X 10.4.4 8G1165 DVD AutoPatcher
Warning: This requires at least 10 gigabytes of free space a working OSX
Installation and the First Restore DVD. This method works to create a bootable
10.4.4 install dvd to install 10.4.4 Natively, this Will NOT work to installNote: If you have not purchased a computer which provides a copy of OSX for Intel, the use of this script is strictly prohibited and is punishable by law. This will modify the First Restore DVD to fit on a standard DVD and install on generic hardware.	


Installation
To Use:																1) Drag the 10.4.4 restore disk image named macosx_10.4.4_dvd.dmg into
place-dmg-in-here directory located in the autopatch directory. (rename to macosx_10.4.4_dvd.dmg if it isn't already named as such)
2) Right/Ctrl-Click PatchIt in the autopatch directory and select Open With and select TextEdit.app from /Applications. (if it is not already in the list)
3) Change line APDIR= to reflect the directory in which you have placed the autopatch directory in. Example: APDIR="/Volumes/OSX1044/Users/user/Desktop/autopatch"					
4) Save File and Exit TextEdit.
5) Open Terminal. (Applications->Utilities)
6) Type sudo sh and drag the PatchIt file into the Terminal window and press enter.
7) Enter password when prompted.
8) Wait.
9) Once the script finishes go into your autopatch directory.
10) Burn BurnThisImage.iso to disk.	
11) Install 10.4.4.

A user named kiax uploaded this just recently via Usenext.

It should give you a bootable DVD to install OSX 10.4.4 native.

I don't use Usenext so would anybody be so kind and give it a try?

Please report if it works for you!

Yepp, i've heard about this one. Can anyone make a torrent?

[Storm2001XP]

Well it would be a big step into the right direction.
But the problem is that even if this works you still need a working 10.4.3 install to copy maxxuss patch and repair permissions etc.

[labria]

You sure? An install DVD shouldn't need another OS... We just need to see what this patch does. But first we need to get our hands on that thing :)

[Storm2001XP]

The encrypted binaries can only be replaced after the installation has finished and without a TPM chip you won't be able to boot 10.4.4.

We will see^^

If only someone could make a torrent

[labria]

Some company should make a "PCI TPM" :)
I would give ip to 20 bucks for one!
But why do you think you can replace the binaries only AFTER? If ou find a way to put the hacked ones in the package it would work just fine, IMO.

it's a bad joke i guess

Why? There is no obvois reason why it should be a joke. JaS and Pianoman allready have a solution to build a bootable dvd, but it's way to complicated for the average user.

[CapAmerica]

if someone could PM me a link to where I could download this I would be more then willing to give it a try. I just picked up a spool of 50 DVD-Rs for $5 at Staples today =P

[philter]

I've got it downloaded, looking through it it appears legit, the script looks thorough...I just don't have the room to run it yet (it creates two images 4gb+). I'll try to clean some room off and give it a go. It never mentions anything about moving files over after the install, the script does move a lot over during building the image though. I think the 'requires working install' part is only for being able to run the script, etc. Perhaps when it creates the hfs+ partition on the image it would require a working install, I'm not sure what other unix derived OSes can do this.

Nice

Waiting for your report

PS: If it works would you be so kind and uploud it to rapidshare.

[SenVa]

I just started to download the files... but I'm getting a really slow connection...

[philter]

I just can't swing it, I trimmed down everything I could find and I'm still 1.3gb too small..It looks like you need approx. 9.5GB (guess they rounded up to be safe), but I only have 8.2 available, and I can't get rid of anything else.

here is the script if someone wants to look it over:

btw I did start it just to follow what it was trying to do, and you'll want to make adjustments if your volume label has spaces in it.

[386dx]

please post the link to files.it would be helpful

[philter]

Link to the files is in the first post of the thread, they are on usenet in alt.binaries.mac.osx.apps group.

[Tornado]

Used my local newsgroups and outlook express to pull the files, and then had to use some par2 program to rebuild the rar file, then had to extract the rar file then had to unzip the intel patch...  jeez, newsgroups suck.  Anyhow, I do have it and I am building the temp iso now (see the above script)  Will let you all know by the end of the evening where I stand with it.  I already had one hickup, I put it on a volume that HAD a space in the name, DOES NOT LIKE THAT!  No spaces or use the _ key if you must.  Rename your hard drive now.... TRUST ME!

[Jared Kipe]

I can almost smell it..... torrent, of either this or of a fully patched DVD please!!

[labria]

Pleaaaaase, someone, upload it somewhere! :)))

[philter]

The patch contains copyrighted files, no one can link it directly.

[Tornado]

Process completed.  It creates and ISO that is 4.3GB in size.  Burning, will let you all know if the dvd boots by 9pm est.  I may not be able to actually install it tonight unless I can find yet another hard drive laying around.

This is so much more fun than downloading porn.
