Just wanted to document my success installing OSX on the following machine:

 

ECS P4M800PRO board v1.0

VIA P4M800PRO + VIA VT8237R Plus chipset

Celeron 2.7 GHz (Northwoood) does support SSE2

1 GB GEIL RAM

Integrated AC97 Compatible Audio

Integrated VIA Rhine Ethernet Controller

EVGA e-GeForce 6200, 256MB DDR2, AGP video

IDE HD and IDE DVD/RW drive

iDeneb 10.5.6

USB Mouse and KB

 

I selected the following options from the iDeneb menu:

iDeneb Essential Package

Audio=>AC97 Audio

Chipset=>VIA/SYS/Marvell/ALi

Kernel=>Voodoo 9.5.0

Network=>Ethernet=>VIA Rhine

Fix=>AppleSMBios=>AppleSMBios 1.0.13

=>Firewire Remove

=>IOUSBFamilyFix

=>Seatbelt Fix

Video=>NVIDIA=>NVINJECT=>NVINJECT 0.2.1 256MB

 

Install went through easily. Rebooted from HD with -f -v and the system came up the first time.

So far, no errors.

QE is supported according to system profiler.

Sound verified working.

Ethernet verified working.

USB working: tested mouse and kb, EDIT: Kernel panic with Flash Drive

 

Anything I should check and document is working?

 

Thanks to all those involved with iDeneb, DasHuman and Marcy for all of their help and encouragement.

 

Now, on to getting it to triple boot OSX, XP and Win 7....
