Just A few Questions...

 

I am Wanting to install OSx86 on my MSI 661Fm-2 Mobo With a 4ghz overclocked celeron d 330

 

Got this in the 10.4.1 HCL

 

Custom Intel [Celeron D (2.4GHZ); Elitegroup 661FX-M (SiS661FX NB, SiS964/964L SB)]

Install method: dd'd the deadmoo vmware image to partition (dual boot using chain0).

 

Hardware: Audio/Video/USB/Firewire/ethernet onboard, AHA2940 Controller for old CD Burner, IDE drive, SiS661FX Northbridge, SiS964/964L Southbridge.

 

Graphics: Vesa works (onboard card), but obviously no CoreImage or Quartz ...

 

Sound: after changing Vendor and Device ID in the AC97 kernel extension the kext loads without error. However, as soon as the sound device is used (for example System Preferences -> Audio) the system crashes.

 

Onboard ethernet: doesn't work

 

Comments:

 

Doesn't like USB devices connected during boot. However, they work fine when plugged in after booting.

Need to give bootoption platform=ACPI or platform=X86PC

Using deadmoo image need to re-patch Coregraphics back from SSE2 to SSE3 for rosetta to work. This is described in http://forum.osx86project.org/index.php?showtopic=538

 

Would the sound work on a later version heavily patched?

 

What else could I do to make it work on my system?

 

Could I Just Use A DVD Install instead of the deadmoo image?

 

If I Used 2 HDDs with OSX on one and kubuntu on the other would kubuntu recognise OSX in GRUB?

There Is A PPC Version Of kubuntu so it would probly detect it

 

Where Could I source A copy from, As I have Dialup :D

PM me if your willing to post me a patched up version!!

 

Thanx Hobo :D
