So after eddie11c had things come up I started to make a new version of Leo4All

I want to take this time to thank eddie11c, Jas , Zef, Zethyroth, Dense, HotBreeze, fleebailey33, netkas, Diabolik, StageXNU Crew for the kernel, Chun-Nan

 

Like I said a BIG thank you to eddie11c with out him this would not have happened, with all of his hard work starting

leo4all.

 

So on to the info

This is for Intel/AMD.

 

MD5 is fb025befca300c21c87259308ccc4f05

 

PPF is included for GMA900 people so they can boot up the dvd and install it

 

Install Notes:

First and most importantly is a totally rebuilt filesystem. I still left the the ./options script

If you boot with -s at the Darwin prompt and mount your drive with

/sbin/fsck -fy

/sbin/mount -uw /

./options

you will see options to remove video drivers, account loop fix, and extensions repair. These are the most common issues so I have just automated them. If you do the account loop fix be sure to setup a proper account once booted into Leopard.

 

From inside the installer you will notice a lot of new options

First and for-most it boots with chameleon so it is efi and non efi boot.

 

This ISO has been built with the Server Retail disc.

 

ACPIPlatform:

 

You now have a choice between ACPIPlatforms, version 1.1.0 is the default install if nothing else is selected. This is needed for the laptop Power Management bundle to function, but if you have an older system you can choose 1.0.3 from Tiger. Alternately you can choose the stock version 1.2.1. Included inside version 1.1.0 and 1.2.1 is ACPIPS2Nub(proper version) for your PS2 support. There should be no more PS2 issues! There is a non-efi Old AppleACPIPlatform-1.0.3 and matching AppleAPIC, fixes some ACPI crashes, must be used for NO-EFI installs.

 

AppleSMBIOS:

 

I put in lots of choices for different versions based on bus speed if you want it to show your proper memory speed, or if you want your hack to look like a real mac. By default it installs Vanilla and SMBIOS Enabler.

Options are:

Vanilla SMBIOS

SMBIOS Enabler

DDR667

DDR800

DDR1066

DDR1333

iMac

MacBook

MacPro

SMBIOS for NON-EFI

SMBIOS Resolver

 

Bootloader:

Chameleon Bootloader

There is EFI v8 Bootloader

Non EFI bootloader, only workd on MBR partition types

 

Kernel:

there is the 9.4.0 StageXNU kernel for efi

there is the vanilla 9.4.0 kernel

 

 

RemoveFireWire:

 

For those that have issues with FireWire, or those that just want to speed their boot time a little. This moves all of the IOFireWire kext's to /FireWire folder in the root of your install drive.

 

About This Mac:

 

This is my own little installer to customize "About this Mac" with your processor info. No it does not fix memory speed, you have to do that with AppleSMBIOS. It should work for all languages and should report overclocked CPU's properly.

 

Power Management:

 

By popular demand I added the laptop power management bundle to the install. You will still need to set it up in system preferences. This is known to have a few minor bugs. It may not report the proper time remaining or any time remaining for that matter, so use at your own risk. If you select this please do not select an ACPIPlatform, as this requires version 1.1.0.

 

Chipset Drivers:

 

(NOTE- JMicron is the only driver that always installs so please choose at least 1 option, some will have to choose 2 [if you have Marvell IDE and Intel SATA for example]) If your not sure you can click all but 1 Nforce, as they will overwrite each other.

 

Nforce Old - This is the older version of Medevils Nforce(1.0.2) driver. Install this if you have issues with SATA enabled causing a panic. Known to work for some Nforce3 users.

 

Nforce Test- If you have a SATA DVD or do not have issues booting the DVD normally choose the NforceTest.

 

Nforce 67- IF you have MCP67 Chipset this is the one you want to use.

 

SiliconImage3132 - I have not found anyone that uses this specific chipset to confirm if it works.

 

VIA, SiS, Marvell and SB - Please install this if you are using any of these chipsets. If you have a Marvell IDE drive please install this as they should be supported. I have added many ID's here so I hope they all work! This choice installs AppleVIAATA, AppleOnboardPCATA and AppleGenericPCATA. Confirmed working for SiS!

 

SAS - By request I added support for this, as of my writing this its untested. Hopefully it works.

 

Intel ICHx- This is in there but this iso is only for AMD so it isn't much use. I added it for the intel release coming soon.

 

Audio:

 

These choices have not changed much, only added support for STAC9271 by request. If your not sure what chipset you have, please choose AzaliaAudio(for most HD) or AC97Audio.

Choices are:

ALC850/882/883/888/889

AC97Audio

ADI1988

STAC9271

AzaliaAudio

 

Graphics Drivers:

 

I have updated many of these packages.

ATI- there are options for:

3850

3870

2600XT(PCIE)

2600XT(AGP)

3870X2

2600PRO(PCIE)

2600PRO(AGP)

X1600(PCIE)

X1600(AGP)

X19X0

X1400 Mobility

 

NVIDIA- I have updated the drivers to the latest available from the Mac Pro's and edited to include all Device ID's I could verify. This should cover mostly all 6XXX/7XXX/8XXX series cards. Here are the ID's supported(not all confirmed working yet) Feel free to search for yours on the list.

NVkush- this is by Diabolik and in my mind the best nvidia enabler. Supports cards from 256MB to 1024MB

 

NVinject- If NVkush doesn't work for you. You can pick this one it supports cards from 64MB to 1024MB.

 

Network Drivers:

 

ForceDeth- This is compatible with most Nforce LAN.

ForceDeth-V - This is compatible with most Nforce LAN(recommended version)

Skge - Driver for most Marvell LAN cards.

RTL8187- Just as it says for Realtek 8187

Zydas USB- For the USB Wireless LAN adapter

Tiger IO80211- Some Atheros cards require this Tiger version to work. Default install is IO80211 from 10.5.2

Broadcom- WLAN driver for BCM4306/4309/4318/4320/4324

RT2500- Suppose to support Dlink WMP54G v4.0, may support some others.

ViaRhine- Just as it says, for ViaRhine chipsets

Intel 100Pro VE- Just as it says, for the Intel 100Pro VE chipset

RT2860- Driver for some chipsets like WL-181, may also work on some others.

RTL1000- This is an open source drive that supports network controllers RTL8168, RTL8111, RTL8169, RTL8101.

 

PS/2Fix:

 

ApplePS2Controller: Fix some dead keys on non-standard PS2 Keyboards, like / and ? on ABNT2

 

ABNT2: Keyboard Layout for Portuguese ABNT2. For PS2 Keyboards need ApplePS2Controller fix to work with all keys. Can be used with USB Keyboards too.

 

PCICard Support:

PCICard install for laptops with Texas Instruments PCI slots.

 

USB 2.0 Fix:

High Speed USB 2.0 fix for some people, don't install if your not sure. May cause issues auto mounting drives.

 

Power Mangement App:

This is a app and kext to control power management on Inte Machines only.

 

AppleIntelCPU Power Management Disabler:

This is installed and selected by default you must not deselect it or system will not boot up. I don't know who made

This.

 

Good Applications:

 

You can choose to install or not, but I do recommend many of these useful programs. They include:

 

ASU-AMD Software Update

Gumby

KextHelper

OSX86Tools

PackageMaker

Stuffit

MainMenu

TextMate

 

AMD Patch:

Does what it says it patches the system for AMD machines.

 

for support go to fusion.osx86.hu channel #leo4all

forum is leo4all.uni.cc

and you can get support at theflee.nfshost.com

 

Thanks for the help everyone with beta testing it

Client version will be next week and will be 10.5.5!! WAITING ON KERNEL 9.5.0 FOR PEOPLE THAT CAN'T RUN VANILLA

Install went fine for me as well. Of course I can't sit still and have tried to update to 10.5.5. I have an amd system / opteron @ 2.43ghz, Nforce chipset, Nvidia 8500gt video and alc 883 sound.

 

I tried to update thru ASU, but the system locks up during install and when I reboot it keeps rebooting from that point. ASU does show the os x server 10.5.5 update on the list as an installable update. Any ideas on this are appreciated or will I have to wait?

thx

Finally a leopard install disc that boots on my gma900 mini computer (would love to use it as a media server)! The only thing is that I couldn't apply the ppf to enable gma900 support. After searching around for a few days, seems like I'm not the only one with this issue. Have tried extracting/applying the ppf on both windows and mac systems, but still comes back with an error and doesn't apply. Is there something I'm missing?

Well theres a small trick that i used when i made my updates with ASU. Usually i dont click on the install button. i just ask im to modify the update only and then i install it like if it was a package downloaded from the internet.

Try that and see if it works.

Finally got it...hope it will work better than Jas release 10.5.4 Server (which never did a reboot OK after install).

Edit: Installed on my Gigabyte hack mac...all Ok so far.

Only strange thing is I have only software Ci + QE though my dev. ID 0x060010de is supported...nkush is installed. I did then use Efi studio (which works fine with the string in 10.5.4 and 10.5.5 iDeneb install).

Once more the Leop. Grafic Update did the job, just installed via Pacifist and didn't remove NVKush --) have full QE+CI.

Sleep is working, used stock Vanilla 9.5 why ?

 

Anyone did the server update to 10.5.5 ?

Sorry, newbie.

 

Am I the only one to run into expired keys during install? I am not so familiar with keys, keygens and such things on macstuff, but no matter

what I do after installation reboot I don't get beyond this key entry page thing. There are two keys public, both are locked as far as I see. So how do you get a valid one for testing?

Has anyone on an AMD system been able to update Server to 10.5.5? I still cannot get it to work on ASU. It does not want to patch. I have been able to manually patch by extracting the pkg files, then removing the necessary files and repackaging, but the system then does not show as an official 10.5.5 system in About This Mac. Still shows 10.5.4.

I would like to buy some server software of 10.5. leopard using ebay and put it on a "compatible made" system, maybe patched with osrom.net bios, maybe with efi-x dongle, to stay updated.

 

But I am confused about the different packages offered. Always thought, it would be one system and that's it. But it doesn't seem to be so.

 

Packages vary in pricing starting from about 250 euros to 350 for a 10 user system.

 

First, the langage support seems to be different. I find spanish and english versions, french and spanish, and exlicit german ones, which I would prefer.

 

Of course the german ones are the most expensive ones (we krauts are always {censored}ed - but if you want German.pkg feel free to press the purchase button) :-((

 

If I purchase one of these, what is it that I have to watch out ?

 

If such a pack comes with a key (does it ??) , would this key be usable with a leo4all, if all other installations fail?

I'm working on getting this running on HP Proliant hardware. Suffice to say, it's a real task since HP is using the NFP3400 chipset, and I can't find much info on it in here. What I'd like to do is get OSX server to work on some real server hardware - with hardware raid (not motherboard software raid), and do some real work with it.

 

If anyone has any experience with installations on HP Proliant hardware, it'd be good to know what you ran across. In the meantime, I'll keep trying different options until I can get it working :)
