I have a pc with a asus P5E3 Pro , with x48 and ICH9R, and i know that someone with the same mobo was able to do hackintosh.

 

But i dont know what method , flavor or distribution (i don't now the correct word) he used.

 

I also have a Point of view Nvidia GTX 470,cpu Intel Q6600,1 OCZ Vertex 120 GB SSD disk (although i will use only for win 7 , quite sure) , and 2 1TB Sata disks.

 

Also , i have 8 GB DDR3 1333 Kingston Memory.

 

Sound , mobo one.

 

The specifications of the mobo,from asus are:

  • Chipset

Intel® X48 / ICH9R with Intel® Extreme Memory Profiles Technology

 

  • Storage

Southbridge

6 xSATA 3 Gb/s ports

Intel Matrix Storage Technology Support RAID 0,1,5,10

 

Marvell 88SE6111

1 xUltraDMA 133/100/66 for up to 2 PATA devices

 

 

  • LAN

Marvell 88E8056 PCIe Gigabit LAN

 

  • Audio

Realtek ALC 1200 8 -Channel High-Definition Audio CODEC

 

I have look at osx86project wiki , and although in the wiki didn't apear my mobo , but rampage formula is based also in the X48 and ICH9R and in the wiki said that works with 10.6.1

 

So i think that with 10.6.4 should work , no ?

 

But what method /flavor use , i dont know.

 

How can i now that is the better install method for my configuration ?

Well , googling i have found a forum where someone said that all was fine using iatkos v7 , and other one said that should work in Kalyway too , so i will look at that two "flavors" and see diferences between both and know what will be better.

 

Although probably i will have to try with some distributions , not only one if i have no luck...

I have been investigating a bit , and it seems that with iATKOS S3 or [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] + [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] i could have a successful instalation.

 

As i have read for use the [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] method is required a original Mac OS X retail dvd , and the [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] cd.

 

So it is no need a modified Mac OS X like with iATKOS S3 (that i suppose, i think is a modified mac os x 10.6.3 to run in a pc ...)

 

Is then the [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] method,better than others?
