trini Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Aim: - Vanilla installation - SW RAID-0 Boot Components: - Abit IX38 Quad GT (X38/ ICH9R) - XFX GeForce 8800GT Alpha Dog Edition - Intel Core2Quad Q600 - 8GB Patriot Viper DDR2 (4 x 2GB) - 2 x Seagate 160GB 7200.9 (Boot) - 1 x Seagate 500GB 7200.10 (Time Machine) - 1 x SanDisk 2GB CF Card + generic reader (USB) Install Method: - Old iPod 20GB, GPT, with the retail 'OS X Install DVD' imaged onto it - Bootable via PC_EFI v8 - Removed [AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement.kext, AppleSMBIOS.kext, AppleEFIRuntime.kext, Dont Steal Mac OS X.kext] - Added macdotnub's AppleSMBIOS.kext, and a dsmos.kext that I had from somewhere... End result: - Vanilla install - 2 replacement kext's (above) - Working shutdown/ restart/ sleep using stock kernel - LAN out of the box, Audio via HDA Patcher/ALC888 dump - Minimal boot via CF (mach_kernel, com.apple.Boot.plist, Extensions.mkext) - RAID-0 System - responsiveness up about 25% over a single drive, but at the cost of some CPU (I never max out my CPU anyway, so for me it's negligible). If anyone is interested I could do a guide, but I figure the information is all on here anyway. Main point was to highlight an almost perfect build (almost because Profiler doesn't show all the correct information, but I don't care). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
