rockingturtle Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Acer 5738G - Snow Leopard Install. How to get SL working on Acer 5738G System Info: Nvidia G105M graphics card with 512 MB RAM 4 GB DDR3 RAM Intel Wifi 5100 Intel Core 2 Duo I followed parsys's wonderful guide http://prasys.co.cc/2009/08/installing-sno...pard-for-osx86/ ( Many thanks for this great guide, specially for covering all the variations ). Step 1 : Prepare the Install Packages : Once the retail DVD contents are on external USB drive, mood the OSInstall packages as noted in above guide (required as I have MBR scheme). Step 2 : Actual Install : Instead of booting up from the updated installer, Fire up the /Volumes/OSX86/System/Installation/Packages/OSinstall.mpkg and installed SL on a new partition here (less hassles and worked like a charm for me !) Step 3: Installed Chameleon 2.0 RC3 (go through the doc\README in chameleon binary on how to install from command line) Step 4: The most important Step, install custom kexts. 4.1 Create the Extra/Extensions folder on SL drive. Copied the following kexts to it: a) fakesmc (download from netkas site) AppleRTC (link on parsys's guide) c) NullCPUPowerManagement (link on parsys's guide) d) OpenHaltRestart (link on parsys's guide) e) PlatformUUID (link on parsys's guide) f) VoodooHDA for ALC888 (http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=175372,'>http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=175372, downloaded VoodooHDA_pref.zip) g) VoodooPS2Controller (http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=175372) 4.2 Created Extra/com.apple.Boot.plist with the following contents: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>arch=i386 -legacy</string> <key>USBBusFix</key> <string>Yes</string> </dict> </plist> This ensures booting in x32 mode with chameleon RC3 ! -x32 etc don't work 4.3 Download the pfix utility from conti's site http://osx86.sojugarden.com/2009/09/permissions-kext-caches/ : This is a simple and yet very handy tool (thanks conti !) for fixing the kext permissions in SL and also create the mkext files. Note: This utility also handles extensions under /Extra folder but it looks for extensions under /Extra/CustomExtensions instead of /Extra/Extensions. So I moved the extensions to CustomExtensions folder. 4.4 Fire up pfix as root and when asked select the SL drive for fixing permissions. So now u are all set reboot into. Note: USBBusFix as required in Leopard is not required with SL (Atleast on my laptop). 4.5 : Reboot the system and start with -v to see verbose output. I sometimes get kernel panics in VoodooHDA, in case that happens for you, don't worry and reboot again. 4.6 : You will now be booted in SL with a working sound and key board and trackpad 4.7 : Complete the account setup extra. Fixing the pending Issues: 4.8 : How to get Nvidia G105M working: Earlier in Leopard you were required to install EVGA drivers and then NVinject using the Xdarwin package. In SL it seems the EVGA drivers are already integrated , so you just need to install the Xdarwin package and you should be up and running with full on graphics !! (Note: I faced some weird problems while setting up graphics, either my graphics worked or sound, WTF !!, finally the problem was solved by installing the VoodooHDA kexts from the link I noted above) 4.9 Battery : Some of you might have noticed that VoodooBattery is conspicuously missing till now. For me this kext worked initially but once I had rest of the system setup (graphics etc.) it stopped working. Thanks to ever helpful nawcom (thanks man !), I fixed this by installing the old ACPI drivers package "AppleACPIBatteryManager.pkg" (see the attachment, I misplaced the original link so attaching here) 4.10 Sound: Install the preference panel from the zip of VoodooHDA and for getting the microphone working tweak the settings (PCM etc). you can install the voodoo helper from the same package to retain the settings (but it doesn't work sometimes). 4.11 As noted in prasys's guide one problem with this method is that you cannot run repair from disk utility. Install the BSD.pkg from DVD as suggested by him. 4.12 I now have Leopard and SL both on the same hard disk. This made spotlight go a bit crazy and I noticed some instability problems. So I manually edited /etc/fstab file to avoid mounting of Leopard drive in SL. Note: After installing any kexts or packages which install then always run the pfix utility. A lot of weird problems can come due to wrong file permissions, so if something is not working out for you from this guide try running pfix once, you might just get lucky Next steps: 1) Inbuilt Intel Wifi 5100 doesn't work. Not kexts for it. 2) I don't use LAN so haven't tested that out. 3) Some time kernel panic on boot in VoodooHDA/PS2 4) I guess speedstep kept is missing so you can expect some quick drain from battery or heat. 5) One of the USB port doesn't work . Out of 4 only 3 work (the second from screen on left side doesn't work ) 6) I haven't compiled/used custom DSDT, that might solve some issues. Overall SL works awesomely well on this machine ! Let me know if you know some tricks which I have missed Here was my quick guide Thanks to all who helped on IRC ! -Rock Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/189211-snow-leopard-on-acer-5738g/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

iSpliff Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Hi Thanks for the tutorial! I installed Snow the same way but could optimize it by just a few things: - GraphicsEnabler with Chameleon RC3 and netkas PC EFI 10.5 instead of the Xdarwin package. - If you want to run in 64 bit mode, you could patch your DSDT with fassl's patcher, so you dont need AppleRTC or Nullcpupm kexts - and use VoodooHDA rewritten by Slice: http://www.projectosx.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=355 (32/64 bit version) which also gets my internal mic to work I couldnt get sleep and speedstep to work yet but I think this could be done by dsdt patching (If I knew how) greets Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/189211-snow-leopard-on-acer-5738g/#findComment-1332111 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antanael Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 Hello Guys,I encounter a Kernel Panic while proceeding to a retail 10.6 install onto my Acer 5738ZG The main hardware difference is my CPU which is a Dual Core T4200. I already use an iATKOSv7.0 without any problem. But because i bought a Snow Leopard Family Pack, i'd like to get my laptop on SL too. I tried several times the tutorials from this topic, trying to install by booting a USB key, a USB Hardrive, even tried to install by directly using OSInstall.mpkg as indicated on the post... but the problem remains. The KP i encounter is very generic : panic (cpu 0 0x262 etc... without any advice about why or what goes wrong. The KP rise immediatly after the startupAs soon as I am trying to install SL onto a USB Harddrive (to avoid main hardrive install issue or loss...) Do you think : -The USB thing is the problem ? -The CPU is the problem ? Thanks for your appreciated help Regards Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/189211-snow-leopard-on-acer-5738g/#findComment-1397324 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockingturtle Posted March 31, 2010 Author Share Posted March 31, 2010 Updated to 10.6.3 Just remember to run Conti's Pfix before rebooting the system, the reboot will take some time, just sit through that.. and all should be well. -Rock Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/189211-snow-leopard-on-acer-5738g/#findComment-1438468 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockingturtle Posted April 22, 2010 Author Share Posted April 22, 2010 Made two changes to the system: The CPU was running very hot and system shutting down hard, so uninstalled all the previous kexts and just added VoodooPowerMini and VoodooMonitor to the system, now the CPUs are running much cooler In the process of whole cleaning up, accidentally removed my /Extra/com.apple.Boot.plist (one which booted the system in legacy mode) and guess what, the whole thing worked like a charm so now enjoying 64 Bit SL. Two glitches though Had to install NVinject 64 bit to get the graphics working, would love to get graphics working with out the Injector, any thoughts ????? No tap to click working on Trackpad. After much trials and failures got that working with http://nawcom.com/osx86/files/10.6/PS2/Voo...troller.pkg.zip, thanks nawcom !! -Rock Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/189211-snow-leopard-on-acer-5738g/#findComment-1453643 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockingturtle Posted April 30, 2010 Author Share Posted April 30, 2010 Another improvement following suggestions from iSpliff. Got the native graphics working without the NVinject. a) Removed the NVinject kext AsereBLN Booter installed. I had an additional install of Leopard on the same drive, so formatted that and ran MyHack installer. c) Added Graphics Enabler = y, Graphics mode as 1366x768x32 and Pciroot = 0 in the com.apple.Boot.plist Rebooted and boom ! native graphics working ! External monitor also working correctly.

acero Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 hi, i use voodoohda but this make the system hang sometimes, i think y can use your legacy hda, i patched hdef for it. i use only 4 kexts, netkas.fakesmc (2)(for ISTAT temp),VoodooPS2Controller.kext,AppleACPIPS2Nub.kext.,Voodoobattery but you should use nullcpupowermanagement,my temp are high like 41/48,36 idle.,speedstep is not fully working. use MacbookPro5,1 ID do y still use bios 1.13 with dual graphic cards?,it s the only bios that enable Intel graphic unfortunatly. bye.
