Fmstrat Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Hey everyone, I've got a dual boot i9300 with Vista and Fedora that I would like to install OSX86 on using iDeneb. However, I'm curious as to if anyone else has done this, and if so what options they checked under the "Customize" button during install. Specific hardware: Pentium M 1.6 single core 2GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce Go 6800 (1920x1200 screen) NEC DVD+-RW ND6650A Intel® 82801FBM Ultra ATA Storage Controllers - 2653 RICOH OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host COntroller Conextant D110 MDC V.92 Modem Broadcom 440x 10/100 Integrated Controller Intel® PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection Ricoh R/RL/5C476(II) or Compatible CardBus Controller SDA Standard Compliant SD Host Controller SigmaTel C-Major Audio A5XJUJKA IDE Controller Microsoft iSCSI Initiator Intel® 82801 PCI Bridge - 2448 Intel® 82801FB/FBM SMBus Controller - 266A Intel® 82801FBM LPC Interface Controller - 2641 Mobile Intel® 915GM/PM Express PCI Express Root Port - 2591 Mobile Intel® 915GM/PM/GMS/910GML Express Processor to DRAM Controller - 2590 I bolded the ones I beleive make a difference. Thanks in advance! Also, if there is another release other than iDeneb that may be easier for this machine, let me know.

Fmstrat Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 Well, going to give this a shot: Audio/Sigmatel 9200 - Inspirion 9400 Video/NVidia/NVinjectGO I'll let everyone know how it goes. ****edit**** Got the "Still waiting on root device" error. I didn't think this was an nForce chipset, but I'll give the patched iso a try. This time I'm checking: Audio/Sigmatel 9200 - Inspirion 9400 Chipset (everything) - recco from another thread Kernel/Kernel 9.2.0 Speedstep - recco from another thread Video/NVidia/NVinjectGO ****edit**** So for anyone who finds this thread searching later, that worked for me. I've only used it for a few moments, and so far I know wireless, LAN, and Sleep don't work yet. Again, I'll keep posting as I find what works on this machine.

Fmstrat Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 OK, I have ALMOST everything running successfully now. Here is where I am: iDeneb v1.3 10.5.5, checked the following boxes: Audio/Sigmatel 9200 - Inspirion 9400 Chipset (everything) - recco from another thread Kernel/Kernel 9.2.0 Speedstep - recco from another thread Video/NVidia/NVinjectGO Post install I did the following. Some of these may have been installable via the iDeneb DVD, but I either did not realize it at the time, or I did not see them. OSX86Tools_1.0.150 - Search google and you'll find it. This aids in installing the kext files below. (I know this was in Applications under customize for iDeneb) AppleAC97Audio.kext - Search google to find one for Leopard. AppleBCM440XEthernet.kext - Search google to find one for Leopard. iwi2200.dmg - This is from iwidarwin, again search google for iwidarwin, and for instructions on how to use it. WPA is not supported. My only problem at this moment is sleep. The laptop will go to sleep, but it will never wake up from it. It just sits and never turns on the display.

Fmstrat Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 WIFI did not work out of the box. See above post on iwidarwin. I just got Dual Display working. Now I'm down to just Sleep not functioning. Here's how I got dual display: Downloaded the following plist editor: http://www.nightproductions.net/prefsetter.html su - (enter root passwd) cp /System/Library/Extensions/NVinjectGO.kext/Contents/Info.plist /Modded.plist chmod a+w /Modded.plist Open Modded.plist with Pref Setter, and change the NVCAP entry to: 0400000000000500020000000000000700000000 Save and Close cp /Modded.plist /System/Library/Extensions/NVinjectGO.kext/Contents/Info.plist chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions rm -r /System/Library/Extensions/Caches rm -r /System/Library/Caches rm -r /System/Library/Extensions.mkext reboot After this, you should have dual display. If you're lazy and don't want to do all the plist editing, just open the Info.plist file in vi, and paste this value in for the NVCAP: BAAAAAAABQACAAAAAAAABwAAAAA= Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/147164-dell-inspiron-9300-ideneb-v13-1055/#findComment-1055400 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fmstrat Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 Awesome. I got Sleep to work. I ended up using the Voodoo kernel: http://code.google.com/p/xnu-dev/ and installed EHCISleepEnabler.kext: http://www.superhai.com/files/leopard/rele...nabler.kext.zip Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/147164-dell-inspiron-9300-ideneb-v13-1055/#findComment-1055581 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fmstrat Posted March 29, 2009 Author Share Posted March 29, 2009 An interesting fact: A 1.8ghz Pentium M 400fsb pinmodded to 533fsb boots in OSX86 at 2.4ghz just fine on the 9300, but blue-screens booting into Vista.
