wixdfast Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Here's my hardware: 1.) Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD3R 2.) Intel i7 920 3.) GTX280 (1GB VRAM) 4.) 6GB of DDR3 RAM @ 1600MHz 5.) Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.7 (iAtkos) installed on my 20GB IDE External HDD I download the iAtkos 10.5.7 .iso image, burned it to a DVD using IMGBurn (burn at the lowest speed), restarted my computer, booting into the DVD. When the Darwin loader pops up, you have eight seconds to press, "F8" and then proceed to type, "CPUS=1 BUSRATIO=20" Then press enter. After a few minutes, the DVD will bring you to the Mac OS X scenery. Go up to "Utilities" and select "Disk Utility". Format one of your HDDs or Partitions to a "Mac OS X (Extended)" format. Once you're done formatting the drive, proceed to work your way through all the ULAs and such, and click "Customize" once you get to the install screen. To get a fully working OS, as I did, you'll need to check the following and on the following: iAtkos v7 main System Chameleon V2 Extra Directory DSDT DSMOS APIC driver Disabler OHR Remove TyMCE AHCI Intel Sata/IDE JMicron Sata/Ide nVidia EFI String (Choose how your monitor and GPU are connect; DVI, VGA, DVI-VGA) GTX 2xx Series Realtek RT1000 Post Install Actions And that's it! Close than and proceed to install. If it's not your first time using the DVD, just skip the disc check and let it install. Once it's done, wait for the screen to go black and remove the DVD quickly. If you do this correctly, you'll boot into Chameleon and you'll be able to see your Mac OS X HDD. Enter it and cross your fingers. If you did everything, and rubbed your lucky rabbit's foot enough, you should see the setup info before you. I hope this helps! And I'll be updating this in the next few days with screen captures and such! Good luck!
