Install

 

1. Setup

Connect an external monitor to the laptop

 

Insert the install DVD

Open the disk utility and format the HDD ( mac os - journaled )

 

Close the utility and continue the install

Click the Customize button and choose these packages:

Chameleon bootloader

Voodoo 9.5.0 - 1.0

Intel ICHx chipset support

Laptopdisplay.kext

GMA 900 noclip

Generic AC97 audio

Broadcom wireless

 

Tools :

KextHelper

OSX86 tools

Xbench

 

Click on Done button

Click on Install button

Wait...

Click on Restart

Wait while the system boots

After the boot you will see , that the screen is full of glitches. (I don't know why ,but at first you need to boot the system in normal mode or you will be not able to make the registration in safe mode.)

Turn off the system by holding the power button.

Enter the Darwin prompt with the F8 button.

In the prompt you need to enter -x boot flag.

-x

 

If you did everything properly you will see the Welcome screen.

After the registration connect your flash disk ,external hdd, or ipod that contains

these zip archives : gma 950 retail kexts , gma 950 enabler kexts.

Open the finder > open the volume where you installed the os > System > Library > Extensions

Choose all gma 950 related kexts and the framebuffer kext.

AppleIntelGMA950.kext

AppleIntelGMA950GA.plugin

AppleIntelGMA950GLDriver.bundle

AppleIntelGMA950VADriver.bundle

AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer.kext

Drag them to the trash.

Enter your password.

 

Unpack the two archives you downloaded and unpack them to a folder (for example on the Desktop)

Open the KextHelper ( Applications > Utilities)

Drag the unpacked kexts to the KextHelper and enter your password then Easy install them.

Cross your fingers like the kexthelper said and restart. (without any bootflag, so no -x ...)

 

If you did everything properly like me , when you open the System Profiler you will see something like this:

 

If you want , you can install the new voodoo kernel for SSE3 emulation.

 

Happy New Year for everybody.

ps - sorry for my english

I hope this tutorial will be useful for somebody.

Hi Nick, I'm trying to change my display resolution (on my nc6220) to 1280x800 without any luky, do you think is possible to change internal laptop display resolution to 1280x800x32 at any refresh rate?

 

Thank you in advance!!

Ahhh!!! network drivers worked great!! Now I'm using Leopard like primary OS and I'm so happy with it!

 

Best regards,

Peter

I found out that you you need to install the PS2 drivers in order to have the internal mouse and keyboard functioning.

 

You can find them in the tutorial section.

I tried the iDeneb 1.4 on my nc6220. The WLAN of my nc6220 is different from yours, it is intel 2200. But the rest should be similar. However, my system just cant boot in "still waiting for root device" if I directly boot into hdd using hdd's bootloader. But it can boot with DVD boot loader (with the switch "rd=disk0s2" to point to my hdd partition where leopard is". This is wierd.

 

I replaced the IOATAFamily.kext even with the one I extracted from 10.4.5. But this is not helping. I havent tried XxX distribution yet. Do you have similar symptom before? Also, after installation,would you need the external mornitor to be connected to make the system bootable everytime? My nc6220 could install Tiger without much problems than Leopard.

 

Many many thanks!

Has anyone managed to get the sleep to work. I can go to sleep fine but I get a blank screen when I wake up from sleep on nc6220 running 10.5.6

 

UPDATE:

Sleep works (kind of) with the VoodooPower.kext, after unchecking put hard disk to sleep and checking the following options in Power Management (another fix)

Wake for ethernet

Allow power button to sleep

Show battery status

 

Trackpad and trackpoint do not work after it wakes up.
