Cerastez Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Acer Travelmate 4020 Intel® Pentium® M processor 725 (2MB L2 Cache, 1.6GHz, 400MHz FSB) Intel® 915GM Express Chipset RAM DDR2 400/533 Audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4401 100Base-T Bios S3A43 What works: +Processor +Audio +Quartz Extreme +Touchpad & Keyboard +Sleep +Ethernet No wireless card installed to test Could not get battery icon to appear on the toolbar! iPC 10.5.6 final installation After formatting (GUID) and partitioning, boot off of the iPC 10.5.6 final installation disk, and install the following: -iPC OSx86 10.5.6 Base System -9.5.0. Voodoo Kernel -Intel GMA900 -LegacyAppleIntelPIIXATA -AC97 Audio -AppleBCM440XEthernet -Seatbelt.kext 10.5.5 -ACAPI Fix (probably not necessary) -UUID Error Fix (probably not necessary) -PS/2 Keyboard Fix (did not install properly the first time and had to install it manually*) -AppleSMBIOS AnV MacBookPro The first time that you boot off your HD, boot with -f. Upgrade to 10.5.8 Download MacOSXUpdCombo10.5.8.pkg from Apple's site and install it. Restart, booting off of the iPC 10.5.6 final installation disk. During installation be certain to uncheck iPC OSx86 10.5.6 Base System. Install the following: -9.5.0. Voodoo Kernel -Intel GMA900 -LegacyAppleIntelPIIXATA -AC97 Audio -AppleBCM440XEthernet -Seatbelt.kext 10.5.5 -ACAPI Fix (probably not necessary) -UUID Error Fix (probably not necessary) -PS/2 Keyboard Fix (did not install properly the first time and had to install it manually*) -AppleSMBIOS AnV MacBookPro The first time that you restart your computer, boot off of the hard drive with -f. Open OSx86 Tools Utility and enable Quartz GL Run the OSx86 Tools Utility repair scripts Also Installed: +Voodoo_Kernel_Release_1.0_Rev_A.dmg (I think that this worked a little faster and a little smoother. I have no actual tests to back this up, but it did seem that way to me.) +Chameleon-2.0-r431.pkg (You have to have a bootloader and this one has an installer.) *Manually Installing Kexts Sometimes a kext just doesn't install properly and you are left without some vital function, during this install the keyboard and trackpad refused to work. You can see if a kext did not install correctly by looking in System/Library/Extensions. The faulty kext may be missing entirely or there may be a folder. If, for example, the seatbelt kext did not install correctly you will find a folder named, "Seatbelt.kext.orig." Don't go crazy and throw out every folder like this that you find, chances are your system and decrypt kext will have these folders, that is alright, leave them alone. To manually install a kext like seatbelt, do throw away the Seatbelt.kext.orig folder. Search the iPC installation disk for the seatbelt package and copy it to your desktop. Right clicked on the package to view the contents. Opened the .pax.gx file. A folder named System will appear, look inside and locate the kext file(s). Drag the kext(s) to Kext Helper to install the kexts. Restart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
