Heya guys. Firstly, thank you Bhast2 for such a fantastic release. It's lovely having that big number 4 in my about screen.

 

I am using the MCP67 nForce560 chipset with this release and I'm going to explain how. Due to some complications with the ApplenForceATA kext and the AppleVIATA kext the MCP67 chipset is not working on boot. This is down to the AppleVIAATA kext try to recognise the chipset, unfortunately it is not compatible so creates issues.

 

What you will need to do to get it working is a bit of manual work with the Leo4AllV4.1 ISO. Don't worry it's nothing complex but you will need:

  • Transmac
  • My/ObsideonX's Extention.mkext
  • 25/50 minutes.

Ok so. I have two mkexts you can try. One worked for ObsideonX but did not work for me, and then my edited version which involves a modified AppleVIATA kext in place of the one in the original release. Try both, but try ObsideonX's first.

 

What you need to do:

 

Install Transmac (30 day trial) and select 'File' - 'Open Disk Image'. Then navigate to the Leo4Allv4.1 iso. From there you will need to show hidden files which is in one of the drop down lists at the top. (I can't actually remember).

 

From there, navigate to /System/Library and then delete the Extentions folder. After you have done that delete Extentions.mkext.

 

Once those two items have been deleted simply take the Extentions.mkext from this post and insert it where the original Extentions.mkext was in the ISO. Once that is done, exit the program and BURN :P .

 

Reboot and type idlehalt=0

 

Once you are in the installation menu, if you cannot see/modify your hard drive then try the second extentions.mkext attached.

 

Mega thanks go out to ObsideonX and Flee

 

EDIT: I didn't realise the files we're to large to host here, so I'll just use megaupload.

Make sure you've deleted the Extentions folder as well. Sorry I forgot to put the link in for the second mkext. Try the second one now?

ok, here's the update so far, managed to get gui loaded up with the 2nd link from greenturtle's post, formatted the hd and am currently in the middle of an hour or so install, hopefully my next post here will be from osx! wish me luck

 

con el 2do me llega mostrar un disco en la lista, pero totalmente erroneo... particiones de tamaño incorrecto y me aparecen 2 cuando tengo 3 particiones

 

ninguno de los 2 archivos me funciono con el mcp67 nforce630m

 

 

Translation: Spanish » English_SetupBidi('source');

with the 2nd show me a disc arrives on the list, but completely wrong ... partitions and I are wrong size 2 when I have 3 partitions

 

2 none of the files I worked with the mcp67 nforce630m

 

 

i have the same chipset, modified the iso with this link: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=L9JD0F6E

 

the installer loaded, seen my hd, unfortunatly the install failed 2/3 of the way through because of a source disc error, i'm going to burn a new one and try again

Make sure you're using idlehalt=0 at boot!

You only see 128gb on first boot because the driver you are using to install is the AppleVIATA modified driver which doesn't support LBA mode. This means it only sees the first 128gb but once you are using Leopard it will see the rest of your hardrive.

 

Make sure you both burn at no more than 2x speed for safe burning. Yes, you need to delete the Extentions folder from the disk image and then replace the mkext.

Well I guess that deserves an answer.

 

I personally don't feel that new DVD releases should be on the front page. It generates too much off-topic noise. iDeneb had to be removed because it became a flamewar, JaS turned into an endless mess of people looking for install help, not to mention the fact that if the announcement is made before the torrent matures, it may become so overloaded that it fails. Generally, these topics turn into:

 

"someone put it on usenet/rapidshare/ftp" "zOMG I'm getting 24k/s 74% done PLEEEEEEESE SEEEED!!!" "This sucks I tried to install it on my dell & it crashes" "does this support matrox gfx cards?" etc etc etc.

 

However, my personal feelings are not the law around here, but we have yet to get a final decision on whether or not to front page new releases in future.

 

In the mean time, I would ask that we at least give time for everyone to post their messages in the news topic about prawker, before this goes front page, if that is what we decide to do.

 

Naturally, Bhast2 your opinion on this matter is appreciated, whether you prefer the attention of a front page post, or whether it is preferable to avoid the rush of noobs and their posts.

 

A google search for Leo4allv4.1 AMD 10.5.4 rapidshare beholds wonders!!
