I tried the Kalyway one, it just freezes at the beginning of the install and stops. I can't even get to the customize screen. |I have tried leo4all and can get it fully installed on my system, but after 5 minutes my laptop seems to over heat and it just shuts off. It doesn't over heat with any other operating system.

 

 

 

My system is as follows acer aspire 5315

 

Intel Celeron processor M 550 2.0 ghz

2gb ram

Mobile intel GL960 Express chipset with intergrated 3d graphics

120 gb sata drive

Intel high definition audio

 

Everything as I said works but it seems to overheat after 5 minutes in leopard system. Almost like the cpu fan quit.

 

Thanks

You must update the BIOS in the 5315 to get the fan working - it's a known issue with that model, I did the update on my 5315 and the fan is working now in OS X. I attached the BIOS update program to this message. Can't remember where I got in Acer's site, their site such a disaster in terms of organization and overlapping areas.

ICL50140.exe

boot up and hit the f8 key..then

 

- type "-s" and then press enter

- type "/sbin/fsck -fy" and then press enter

- type "/sbin/mount -uw /" and then press enter

- type "passwd root ##" and press enter

- you will know be prompted to put in your password twice. Do so and press enter.

- type "touch /var/db/.AppleSetupDone and press enter

- type "exit" and press enter. you will now be booted into Leopard.

 

try that

Well, I installed bios 1.45 and the fan comes on now. But it only does it when the CPU temperature hits 66 C (as detected by GenericCPUPMControl.app ... bit of a kick in the butt, because the fan knocks it back down to 65 C ... which heats up to 66 C in a few seconds ... and then goes down to 65 C as soon as the fan comes on...

 

Has anyone managed to change the thresholds?
