I've sucessfully Installed it on the same Notebook - I used iDeneb 1.3. If you have troubles at the login screen try: Boot in safe mode (-x) If Welcome Menu crashes at Data transfer you have to transfer It from an other OSX installation (best from an USB drive) Hardware/Drivers: 9600M GT works with Q/E and CI Networking doesn't work at All (No drivers for Intel Wlan, LAN doesn't work with built in Driver) Sound doesn't work jet - I'm searching... Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
