The thread is filled with alot of people who haven't posted 'useful' replies. This post is all you really need to look at.

1st Guide:
This is the saviour kext developed by flee and medevil, which provides decent support for your chipset.

2nd Guide:
This is my guide for injecting the kext into the Leo4Allv4.1 iso.

3rd Guide:
This is ObsideonX's guide to the MCP67 and his Laptop, including useful attachments and information.

Before you post anything in this forum, please read these three links thoroughly.

Hi Greenturtle985

Yup i have been for about 6 months now doesnt seem to be away arounf it at this moment.
I was hopeing MeDevil would find away around it for use .
I belive theres a couple more people on here having same problem as use

My chip is a NForce 560 on my laptop .

I tried ghosting my external drive to my internal yesterday to see if that would boot but I just got waiting for root device :/

I know that eddie11c is trying to figure it out.

yeap, im suffering that too
my laptop acer have that chipset
i was reading some threats and i also read that eddie is trying to fix that
and i also hope that is its possible, medevil could fix that
tnx and waiting for a working driver for this chipset

Hopefully someone works it out soon sick of using XP Maybe eddie11c could join us in this thread let us know how its commin along? I wish you luck Eddie your the man if you get it working
Can we install to a External HD??? i havent tired that yet does it work though usb2 ??

Yep I've got it running on an external hard drive.

What speeds do you get on external HD same as internal? usb2 i take it ?

I never checked mate. My Hackbook is off for repair at the moment but it's getting back this week and I'll check it out then!

Sam

Hope I'm not too late to join the party ;)Yeah, even i'm suffering due to the lack of mpc67 support.Wishing Eddie all the luck that he might need...IMHO, if eddie's leo4all get support for mpc67 its gonna the be the best distro!!!Can anyone please confirm if the NForce SATA Controller by MeDevil http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=77071 is working for mcp67m or not

I am working on this, it would be easy to integrate if I knew what kext did work. The problem is 056010de and 055010de are not supported on Medevil's current Nforce.kext. I am going to try the older version to see if there is any difference. I could use another tester with this chipset though, so PM me if you want.

So does leo4all work for us or doesnt it which one? Doesnt it run in vmware why wouldnt that work since it doesnt use our nforce 560 controller?

560 works i hear with the old nforce ppf i made. please give it a try.

Hey eddie11c sorry for the lack of help from me. I'm picking my hackbook up tomorrow from my local Currys store but I'll try the nForce ppf.

I eddie were can i get this file you made from???? can i add it to Zephyroth Leopard the 10.5.2 versioN??? Whats PPF??? please explain someone ) can anyone confirm this works?

If you go to download the new release of Leo4Allv3 its included in the torrent.

Its really not looking good for us ive been reading though all the posts on google about the 560 doesnt look good.
I just hope Medevil can help us all out here and bring out a patch up us eddie good luck guys

Yes. Hence why I made this topic about having 'lack of support' for this chipset. The torrents at 15% for me at a high download speed so I should have it by tomorrow and I'm picking up my laptop today so I will try out the nForce ppf!

Wicked ! cant wait to know if it does or not be sure to post the news Really need some good news on this lol good luck

medevil haven't got those chipsets, donate to him one of those and maybe he could do something

Its a bit hard when iam in new zealand to lend aye laptop were abouts is MeDevil located?
Surely theres a way.

HI all,
well i've been thinking that since I'm not really sure which kext is going to work for me, so is it possible to load a kext into memory from a flash drive while I'm booting off the installation DVD at the Installation Screen ?
Then after i know that a particular kext is working for me, I'll inject that onto the leo4all v2 dvd.

ps. Is the leo4all available at the bay?

Greenturtle did you try leo4allv3? any luck???

Ok for the update, the old nforce driver will load and see the drives, but due to the integrated video it freezes when you try to write to it. I am still working on it though, so keep hope alive.

oh my god really?
oh men that's yes is a good new
if you can make it work men, i will be greateful honestly
i just wanna say that the AppleNforceSata on the
uphuck 1.4a for amd recognize my CD/DVD Rom but
not my hard drive :S, the most recently NforceSata kexts
doesn't recognize my CD/DVD Rom and my hd neither
:S thats strange
thanks for your effort and keep the good work eddie
the hope never die
cya
p.d. sorry for my bad english >.<'

Well that's great news! Unfortunately the courier service has been F***ING me about and I haven't got it back yet.

Swashank Redemption.

OK did some more research, the integrated video may not be the problem. There are 2 IDE controller Device ID's for this board. 055010de and 056010de. The first being in IDE mode and the second in AHCI mode. Currently I don't think AHCI is supported by any NforceATA kexts. Your Bios is limited and has no options for turning AHCI on or off. We are looking into more to see if AHCI is enabled by default, will report back when we get further.

Yeah i cant turn ACHI mode off within the bios kinda sucks, keep us updated mate so many people need a solution for this problem. good luck

Interesting stuff. Before my Laptop was taken away I was Triple booting XP, Vista and Mac (Mac on an external). Wouldn't XP crash if ACHI was enabled wouldn't it just crash?

all our problems would have come to an end if only there was the sata/ide option in our bios...
Now, keeping that in mind, is there any hack available for the bios?
I know it would be risky, but its worth a try

@eddie, May god bless you mate, it seems you are seriously doing some hard work on this case, once again good job mate!
Do keep us updated with your progress.

Is a donations fund in order?

Yeah i agree Greenturtle how do we go about setting one up?

well, in my laptop i cant turn off/on the achi mode, there's no such option.
eddie, if you make it work, honestly i will donate to you via paypal
because i've tryed everything in my hands to make it work but no result
thanks and keep us updated with your progress

I'll PM eddie11c and get him to set one up for his paypal. (Which I assume he has).If you are keen to get this working I suggest we donate herehttps://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cm...20e371ab3016a1eThat is eddie11c's Leo4All fund.

GreenTurtle good idea but how about open this up for anyone who makes the kext work first?? hopefully eddie will say yes to this ill also give money towards this, your link didnt work for me by the way

I finally got my laptop back! I tried the nForce old and it did detect the drives! I tried to format one of my partitions except it just took forever and just gave me an I/O error.

I installed it to an external but to my surprise the drives didn't show up as readable within OS X? Is there any up date on this eddie?

Sam

This morning, even i tried the old nforce ppf...
While booting off the dvd, it took forever, the process did freeze for a couple of minutes, but then again it started.
The DiskUtility was able to detect the drives, but when i tried to format them with MacOS Journaled option, the video went choppy and ultimately, it went off with hazy stripes all over the display...

even i was wondering, is there any news from eddies side?

I was just wondering, if leo4allv3 gold will be able to detect the drives or not... i'm outta dvdr's as of now.

there is a leo4allv3 gold?
its good a good new that the disk utility detect the drives, i think we just
need wait for more news from eddie
keep the good work eddie
thanks

I am still working on this guys, be patient. I have 2 things to try, but it takes time to get the ppf patches to work so someone can even test. I should have alot more time next week to work on it, so am hopeful to find a resolution finally.

oh thats good men
that ppf patches will be applied to the leo4allv3?
i think i will download it tomorrow, so i could test the ppf patches
so, i think we just can wait untill the next week
cya men and thanks for the effort

Thanks Eddie I can also help in anyway with testing. Have you found anything interesting or any hopes of this working ever yet a wat around it ? Cheers mate keep us updated

Any new updates???

news??? eddie, can I help in any way??? I dont really want to buy a mac... but I want osx to develop iphone appz ;P

my laptop: Acer Aspire 7520, 3G Ram, 2 SATA HDDs (160+160 GB)

any luck?

Sorry for lack of updates of late, been really busy with other things. I hope to have something new to test this week though(maybe even tomorrow) will update once I get something tested.

Hey eddie, you're the man! We know its just a matter of time, dont worry!!!

Any1 knows if I plug an usb external hd, could leopard see and install on it??? Is the nForce 560 breaking only sata stuff??

thanks in advanced!

ignore my question, its already answered! txs

yeah thanks for the advice
then i will just wait for your next reply
thanks and cya eddie
