[OSX-Netbook]

Howdy Folks,

 

i bought this netbook some weeks ago. The Hercules-provided specs say:

 

• Intel Atom N270 1.60GHz

• 512MB DDR2 (max 2 GB expandable)

• 60GB HDD 1.8"

• Intel GMA950 (IGP) shared memory

• 3x USB 2.0/LAN/WLAN 802.11bgn

• 3in1 Card Reader (SD/SDHC/MMC)

• Webcam (1.3 Megapixel)

• 8.9" WSVGA TFT (1024x600)

 

With the pre-installed Linux, I was able to get some more Info (slightly abbreviated):

 

Host bridge: Intel 945GME

VGA compatible controller: Intel 945 GME

Audio device: Intel 82801G (ICH7)

PCI bridge (2 pcs): Intel 82801G (ICH7)

USB controller (4 pcs): Intel 82801G (ICH7) UHCI

USB controller: Intel 82801G (ICH7) USB2 EHCI

PCI bridge: Intel 82801 Mobile (ICH7-M)

ISA bridge: Intel 82801GBM (ICH7)

IDE interface: Intel 82801G (ICH7)

SMBUS: Intel 82801G (ICH7)

Ethernet controller: Realtek RTL8101E/8102E

WLAN: RaLink RT2860

 

For installation issues, I lend an external USB-DVD Drive. Booting from an USB-Stick lends to the some eror, btw...

 

What happens when I boot from? (Always with the -v option)

 

With iDeneb 10.5.8 Lite:

 

Last lines displayed:

 

Waiting for boot volume with UUID...

Waiting on <dict ID="0"...

AppleIntelPIIXPATA: Secondary PCI IDE channel is disabled

AppleIntelPIIXPATA: 80-conductor cable not detected on primary channel

 

Nothing more happens, Netbook can only switched off/on.

 

Some behaviour with iDeneb 10.5.6 and a lot of other tested distros...

 

With iAtkos v7, the netbook just reboots (to fast to read something).

 

Would be nice, if someone could bring me on the right path

 

Or is it generally impossible to use this netbook with OSX?

 

Thanks a lot.

 

Greetings

At the moment, some Windows is installed on the netbook. So I could get some more infos via Everest, if needed.
