mikeosoft Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 Congrats, and i have a few questions. How did you go about installing it? Which method worked? Iam interested in running this on my newly purchased Compaq Presario V2000z notebook, which has the closest specs to yours as i could find. Any help would be great.

I was stupid and didn't grab device id's for anything before i put the tiger image on here.. :-/ but yeh.. Sound, DVD, and Display (native 1680x1050 from the Radeon 9600 128MB M10) Mao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halo1982 Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 I have an NX9100 HP...Almost the exact same system you have except mine is a 2.8 P4. Same video and sound et al. I got everything working but the video (accelerated anyway...vesa sucks) and don't have a clue on the sound. I tried adding the devids for the video and sound into the various plists for the ati and via drivers with no luck. thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paratodos Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 hello, I have the same system, but my keyboard is not run. how can you do it?? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stabile007 Posted November 23, 2005 Share Posted November 23, 2005 hello, I have the same system, but my keyboard is not run. how can you do it?? thanks I have a zv5000 (which is the nvidia based system so sound and UDMA has drivers) but the keyboard and mouse are not. Because they use a PS2 interface my solution was to plug in a USB mouse and keyboard. There are PS/2 drivers floating around but I don't think the author has gotten them to work with the HP laptop.

Frimples Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 (edited) I got my ZV6000 running 10.4.3 the hard way. I resized the windows partition to create a 20 gigs of empty space. Then I created a partition using Diskpart in windows (using the creation method outlined in the Deadmoo install method). I installed 10.4.3 frome the patched DevDVD using VMware 5.5 with direct access to the real partition (note, VMware says that the DVD requests DMA programing at the point that it hangs at "waiting for root" in a "real" install). The chain0 method worked for 10.4.1 but I had to install a real boot-loader to automatically switch active partitions and select the OSX partition to boot from. WORKING: Built in ethernet. Built in Keyboard, external USB keyboard. Built in Trackpad, external optical USB mouse. Vesa 2.0 display at 1024x769x32 (Native is 1280x800x32). Firewire(untested) NOT WORKING: Powersaving caused the notebook to hang (turned off powersaving in preferences). Sound. DVD/CD Drive. Flash Disk Media Reader. Wireless Broadcomm Ethernet (haven't tried the airport driver, second ethernet is seen by the system but may not be enabled in BIOS the light in the wireless button is off). PC Cards (untested). Over all the system is as fast as windows, but a whole lot better looking. I'm using the PPC version of Firefox and a DSL connection throgh a router.

fireshark Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I have a zv6000 as well (ati chipset). RTL8169 eth works. no wireless, stretched display, ps/2 kb/mouse worked on first boot. PC Cards (TI cardbus) dont work. DVD/cd dont work since no ata driver -> genericpcata -> no 2nd channel FW detected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frimples Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 I bought a "Mad Dog" USB enclosure for my old desktop CD-ROM and Hard Drive and find that both show up on the zv6000. I installed Mac Office 2004 and it copied fine from the cd. The USB hard-drive may actually be faster becuase of better USB drivers. I'll test it and pass along the results.

Frimples Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 The hard drive is faster for larger transfers but slower for small file transfers. 6mb for the large transfers and 0.40mb for the small file transfers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dippyskoodlez Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 That Simple Install is way craowded with redundant information.

It should boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frimples Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 Scousi's ati kext activates the secondary IDE controller so you can use the cd/dvd drive. It also speeds up hard drive reads by a about a factor of 3x. Hard drive writing is as slow as the generic driver (0.35 meg sec). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fireshark Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 raly? mine sped up by about 100x (from 0.5 mb/s to 50 mb/s). I used the UDMA 5 compiled kext. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scousi Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 raly? mine sped up by about 100x (from 0.5 mb/s to 50 mb/s). I used the UDMA 5 compiled kext. So you actually get 50 mb/s ? That's good news. I guess my laptop 5400 rpm (maybe even 4800?) is limited. If you ever have time, could you run writing tests between XP and OSX? I thinks the writing speed might stiil have to be tweaked somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
