jmc1 Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 I'm putting together a computer that uses a Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3L motherboard and, among other things, a GeForce 9600GT video card. This guide tells me to install Kalyway first, and then to install using a retail DVD (I think, most of the guide assumes you have an OSX86 install already on it and only mentions Kalyway in the Noob guide). The 9600GT guide (down on this page I think) says I need to install iDeneb 10.5.5, but I haven't seen anything for my motherboard mentioning that. Anyone else out there who can make sense of this stuff for me? I've spent hours trying to figure out what I needed to download and how to set it up and I'm over my head now. Thank you!

jmc1 Posted December 28, 2008 Author Share Posted December 28, 2008 As I said above, I've already been there, and I found the entries for the motherboard and the video card. I'm asking if someone can explain what image I'm supposed to install with, because the guides for both demand different images and I don't know how interchangeable they are.

Why don't you just try one of the two distro's recommended in the HCL. Both seem to work OK on your motherboard and there are also troubleshooting links ETC Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/143278-which-imagedistrowhatever-do-i-need-to-use/#findComment-1018186 Share on other sites More sharing options...
