Vanilla install using chameleon 2.0 and 10.5.4 retail disc. Used the packaged updated to 10.5.6 then updated like normal and booted up to 10.5.7 without any problems (just had to reload AppleHDA.kext with my patched one).

 

Intel Core2duo "Wolfdale" 3.0ghz oc'd to 3.6.

Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3R

Radeon 2600xt card (had two, but crossfire was causing an issue somewhere)

8gb of G.Skill DDR2 8000 (only running 1.8v, gotta fix that to get 1000mhz out of it)

Running some cheap seagate 7000rpm drives.

Azio bluetooth dongle BTD-V201

Working Belkin USB Wireless (realtek chip) using a modified realtek driver.

 

Only uses a few modified kext files (someone had an ep45 kext pack). Everything works that I've tried so far.

 

Works great. Boots in about 45 seconds from button push (slowest bios ever, might need an update). Ran the geekbench 32bit demo and got 5800. Gonna tweak it and see what I can pull tonight probably.

 

The only problem I can think of is the bluetooth dies when I wake it up from sleep. I get a grayed out emblem with a zigzag line over it.

 

Did I do ok?

i think it's the not perfect compatibility of bt's chipset. If you connect another usb dongle it turn on after sleep?

 

good thought. i don't have any other bt's to try out, just two of these little guys. since it's a desktop i set it just not to go to sleep and just turn off the monitor. no big deal.

 

used my computer last night without a hitch though, it was great. i was able to sit down, turn it on and do my business, and shut down without ever noticing it was a hack. that's so nice. the only thing that annoys me is the realtek driver but that has nothing to do with the hack, im just using incompatible hardware.
