gurtham Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Hi, I just downloaded (took 2 weeks!) JaS 10.5.4 to install it on my self built PC, which is made of (relevant stuff only): - Mobo Abit IP35 (Intel P35, onboard Gigabit LAN and 7.1 audio, JMicron IDE controller) - CPU Intel Pentium Dual Core E2180 (that's a Core 2 Duo with less cache), overclocked to 2.5 GHz - RAM 4 GB DDR2 800 (2 x 2 GB) - VGA Asus Geforce 8600GT 512 MB - HD Seagete Barracuda SATA 160 GB - CD1 Plextor DVD-ROM IDE - CD2 NEC DVD-RW IDE with SATA adapter - PS2 keyboard and mouse Burned with Toast Titanium 9 with my MacBook's internal Superdrive, JaS does not boot from the Plextor - I presume that's the infamous problem with the JMicron controller. It boots from the NEC, but only if I use the -v option, otherwise it reboots forever. Installer runs fine; I partitioned the disk in two partitions, the first to install Vista later and the second for Leopard. I was unsure about the packages to install, so I just checked anything that sounded right and kept the vanilla kernel. After install, Leo booted fine, but asked me to plug in a keyboard. And here comes the problem: my keyboard and mouse can work from both PS2 and USB, but I need the keep them attached to the PS2 ports because they go through a KVM switch. I attached them to USB just to test Leo a bit, and I can report that graphics, USB and the Plextor are working fine, while networking and audio were not recognized, I'll check them later. Even though I selected the two PS2 packages in the installer, I can't find any PS2 thing in the Extensions folder. Any tip on that?

gurtham Posted September 19, 2008 Author Share Posted September 19, 2008 Searching for PS2 gives hundreds of results, and I can't find anything useful on the first pages Oh, and I also found that shutdown, reboot and sleep does not work.
