Hello everyone, I just joined the community and am in need in some help. I've referenced the wiki and have ordered the following parts:

 

Mobo: Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3L

CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300

Video Card: XFX GeForce 9500GT 550MHZ 1GB

HD: Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 500GB SATA2

DVD Drive: LG GH22NS50 Black 22X SATA

 

After some research, I have found that there are two routes that I can go into installing SL. My question is should I use Kakewalk with their bootloader or should I use the Cartri bios with their recommended Chameleon RC4 bootloader?

 

In both cases, what kexts or other modifications would I need to install post-installation?

 

Thanks in advance for helping a noob. :(

KakeWalk is the simplest Method to install OSX, but only Original DVD please !!!

 

you don't need Catri Bios, although is a great Project !!!

Thanks. I do have the original DVD. My Macbook finally crapped out on me. What kexts would I need to install after the Kakewalk method?

i have only 2 kexts in my ' /Extra/Extension/ ' Folder : NullCPUPowerManagement.kext and OpenHaltRestart.kext

 

after install, you need at least the first one !!!

 

i installed with the USB Method, took 20 min., don't know about the CD Method, never tried :D

 

just follow the KakeWalk Guide.

 

uploadet these 2 kexts for you :)
