[Newbie] Some questions about OSx86

[LordRothen]

Hi all. Because the board is so big and I'm not able to find the required information I need, I'm asking for some help now.

 

#1) My BIOS does not allow to do this: http://cache.lifehacker.com/assets/images/...d9b95571c_o.jpg

Is this really required? Does some way exist to install Mac OS X without this changes in BIOS?

 

#2) What is Chameleon? Does it help to boot the installer?

 

#3) I'm using an ASUS notebook of the GS2g series. Is BIOS patching required? Is there any possibility to enable the options show above in #1 ?

 

#4) I read if I change the SATA options from IDE to AHCI the booting needs less time. But the booting of the BIOS is going really fast through. May it be that AHCI is already enabled and not shown in the BIOS?

I checked my management and it says: http://localhostr.com/files/54995d/Controller.jpg

The controller has AHCI in it's name. Am I right if I think it's already enabled?

 

#5) I'm getting this errors (shown in Screenshots below). Can someone tell me why they occur?

I would be really happy about help!
