are there any more specs of the iso yet? like added drivers.
Detosx
At a guess I would say this won't support SSE2; V2 didn't and I believe a planned patch was dropped. We shall see. Nice one, though! smile.gif

Hopefully the release notes will be published soon.

From the iATKOS wiki:

Welcome to iATKOS v4i OSx86 10.5.4 iATKOS v4i 10.5.4 has been released at July 17, 2008.

It's the latest Intel Only OSx86 Leopard 10.5.4 DVD release by the OSx86.Turk Team.

Users who own machines with supported Intel Hardware can use iATKOS v4i to easily install Mac OS X on their regular PC.

Release Information
  • 10.5.4 main system of v4i including modbin 9.4.0 kernel is compatible for darwin x86 non-efi mbr systems by default. Users can select stock packages for efi systems.
  • Like the v2i, v4i also includes netkas pc-efi 8, supports GPT (Guid Partition Table) and MBR (Master Boot Record).

What's OSx86?
OSx86 is a project dedicated to run the Mac OS X computer operating system on non-Apple PCs that use x86 architecture processors. OSx86 has been made possible at June 2005, when the Worldwide Developers Conference announced that Apple transferred their personal computers from PowerPC to Intel Processors..

Where can I download iATKOS v4i?
Hmm. We don't know. We heard that the Green Demon is able to supply it.

What are the requirements?
Use the Hardware Compatibility List (HCL) of the osx86project and check whether your hardware is supported.

Hmm...wasn't really a big fan of iATKOS but if I didn't already set my system completely up, I would download this. I wish I could just backup my entire partition so I can restore it later (if needed).

That's the same question I asked myself. Here's my finding and results:

*Using Acronis True Image, I can backup the OSX86 partition on my HP Dv6500T laptop, and I can restore it later without no problem.

*On my C2D E8400 desktop, it's a different story. I am able to create an image backup, BUT when I want to restore the image, the OSX86 partition is grayed out. I am stomped on that one.

Maybe I'll give the old Powerquest Drive Image a try and see what results I might get.

Great, I was waiting for a 5.4 release. Upgrading my Kalyway install to 5.3 had been driving me mad. In the end I saved the User data and configuration and formatted my OS X partition. Time to install again, I believe.
Sevan
Any word on Kalway 10.5.4?
Onetrack
NO!.

No I didn't. But considering that I must start from scratch it is better to use an updated release.

Try using Carbon Copy Cloner. It operates in OSX environment so when time comes for a restore, it sees HFS partition right away. Search for CCC on the Green Demon.

As soon as it finishes downloading, I'll try a fresh install right away. Only a few kexts to install. It sure beats going from 10.5.2 to 10.5.3 and 10.5.4.

no need to torrent Carbon Copy Cloner... its free(donations accepted)... here's a link:

Which of the boxes did you tick to update with the IATKOS DVD the Toh?

Its all about finding out WHY it disdnt work...

Did you have kexts installed for your graphics card for example? were they updated in the update? Just because you selected vanilla does not mean you can use all the updates from apple

drnoobfrag69
It has a sata drive that is the ony problem that I see, but there is a good chance that it is using an intel mobo, I would say that it will work fine,


I feel it nearing, My heart races, My macshiba waits for me to slide it in, The feeling of a new os, makes her throb, I hope it is compatible.



Ok, im bored, Just waiting for it to finish so I can let it seed while i play with it smile.gif

I tried installing, recognized my windows hard drive but not my hackintosh one. Everything is SATA but this was not an issue with kalyway 10.5.2. I'm a bit disappointed.
dhomi
I seem to have a problem. Boot on the DVD, ticked the usual stuff (although iatkos is not as straight forward as Kalyway). But I can't boot on the hard drive then.
I get the "boot:"
Whatever I do, nothing happens. I never had problems booting before, if someone could tell where I went wrong that would be great.
I had AppleACPI ticked, and the netkas SMBios....

Is there a way to integrate kexts into this? I have a working Kalyway installation, but I want to just put in all of the kexts that I know that work so that I can reinstall without going through the hassle of finding and installing all of them over again... and I'm seeding...
defn
Anyone on a T61p have this up? I'm about to try my hand at a first install. Is there some sort of conflict with SMBios and ACPI or something?

I am holding down the c key but it will not boot. I am on Philips Freevent X55, Intel T5550, 945M express chip set. There is one poxed up XP partion on the drive. Its ATA also. This my first time with OSx86, I want to break my OSx86 cherry. Thanks. rolleyes.gif

Those boot time keystrokes only work on real Macs.

To boot off the optical drive on your machine you either have to change the boot order in the BIOS, or if your motherboard supports it, select the boot device on startup.
(Should be message on screen as to what key to hit to get to either of those. Usually F2 or Del for BIOS, and F12 for boot menu)

I also have problems with booting. The installation went fine (thanks to -v -y cpus=1) ony my hp compaq nx7400. But then it rebooted and it frose. And now I can't get it to boot sad.gif I tried installing twice, but no progress sad.gif
