Anyone try to install it on this MB/chipset yet?

 

I have a SFF PC build using this MB on order and I am wondering what I need to do to get it to install.

 

I have an early 2008 MBP and was hoping to use a retail install method, but I am thinking I would have better luck with the special 10.5.5 build that shipped with late 2008 Macbooks as it uses this chipset, but since thats not available I am thinking an older build with nforce.kext's?

install on USB disk,...

 

install it on external USB disk, that should work,... (make shure, you make usb disk bootable,..)

 

since the mobo bios, is broken, on the ahci ,... looks like no quick fix,.....

 

thought , there might be a patch to run the sata native,... don't know where, have not tried it yet,...

 

last resort, to put in a sata card, to run it off,......without ahci,.... also some ports behave different from others,...

arya: Can you provide a link to the kext or how did you get your onboard sound working?

 

Are you using onboard sound or it looks like a different sound card then onboard?
