dakku Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Hi, Many thanks for the wealth of information on these forums. After many days of reading and burning the midnight oil I managed to install OSX on HP 550: HP 550 Spec (http://www.ebuyer.com/product/164845): * Intel® Core2 Duo Processor T5670 * Chipset Mobile, Intel® GME965 * Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 I managed to install it by following the steps below: * Boot from Boot-132 (Dell Mini9) * Swap to Leopard DVD (retail) * Plug in mouse + Apple keyboard * Install 10.5 and reboot (from mini9 boot-132) * Combo Update to 10.5.7 So far I have not installed any Kext files etc. The System is working with basic functionality. The next step for me is to install Chameleon 2.0-RC2 to EFI so that I do not have to boot from mini9 Boot CD everytime. I downloaded the PKG installer from the Chameleon website. I see it has an option to install to EFI (HFS+) partition. To begin with I just want a basic boot from EFI (same as boot-132). There are a bunch of Kext files in Chameleon installer, should I install all of them to get a basic boot going? At this point I do not know which kext files are required, thus I am trying to get a basic boot going so i can install kext files to EFI as I go along.. Can anyone please help?
