[mixmux]

First, Hello,

i'm mixmux from Germany (so sorry for bad english)

 

since a few of days i'm intersted to work with the ios developer kit from apple for iphones and ipods. i allready have experiences with programming.! :q

so the problem is i use a pc (win7 64 bit) and ios developer kit only works on mac. so i must get a mac, but i havn't enough money to buy an mac and besides, I'm happy with my Pc. So i want to make a hackintouch. but my problem is, i havent a intel core.!? I have a AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor. I already search in OSx86 Database and HCL but it didn't helps a lot for a new user...

an i dont want to use a virtual machine, because i havent enough RAM to work good with it...

so i want to ask if is possible to make a hackintosh on my pc.?

my pc:

(Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit)

System Manufacturer: BIOSTAR Group

 

System Model: N61PB-M2S

 

BIOS: )Phoenix - Award WorkstationBIOS v6.00PG

 

Processor: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5000+ (2 CPUs), ~2.6GHz

i hope for a quick response,

I can't speak portugise!! O0

In a german article was said, that you cant install snow Leopard with a retail DVD o0 is actuall (from last month)

 

or is there a Chance to install with a Boot USB?

You don't need to be able to speak Portuguese to click on a mediafire link for a boot CD that matches your specs.

Don't know if your computer will work with OSX.

 

imho the best way to start is burn a dual-layer dvd-r with 10.6.2 or newer, and burn [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]: http://tonymacx86.blogspot.com/2010/10/ibo...cs-support.html

 

Boot with [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url], then put in OSX install DVD and press F5 (refresh/reload cd).

 

 

OSX support mainly comes down to the motherboard, and the graphics card.

motherboard issues:

1) may not work at all, like you can't even get to the installer. There are sometimes ways around this.

2) common: sata doesn't work. You have to go into your bios and change it to ahci (if I remember correctly).

3) ethernet may not work without custom driver (kext). [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] (from the same website as [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url]) has my ethernet card drivers in it, making it easy.

4) sound may not work from the get go, just like ethernet.

5) graphics card issues. This is important. Look up in the wiki if your graphics card is supported. ATI cards historically cause a lot of problems. Nvidia cards as an overall tend to be a bit more reliable.

This helps a Lot.

Thank you :]

 

But there is everywere writen, that you Need a Intel CPU

[raid2005]

how about trying to install vmware client on ur host, then install MAC inside the virtual machine or a premade vmware image for MAC OS X 10.5.5, then decide whether it complies with the requirements. Some vmware or iso images might comes in an error like your machine doesn't accept virtualization(vt-x) issue.

 okay i will test it. 

thank you for your help.

i will report if its working

so i'v tried to install mac os x 10.6.3 with [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] an a virtual machine, because i haven't a crackes mac os...

after loading the mac dvd this messages poped up:

'The CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system. You will need to power off or reset the virtual machine at this point.'

 

 

So I can not install Mac OS X on my PC? 

is there an chance to fix it? 

And is there an other chance to istall mac on my pc, maybe using a virtual machin with a cracked mac? And where i can make or download a cracked mac? ( i have original dvd)

First, you do not need a cracked copy of anything. Use a normal OSX install, retail unmodified; vanilla.

Second, vmware has different requirements than booting naively. If you have an extra hard drive floating around then it would be perfect to run tests with, not with vmware.

Third, amd cpus work fine no problem. Years ago back on 10.4 you had to modify the kernel (hacked osx) to support sse3 for amd64, but that was years ago. Today it is not an issue. amd x2 runs fine on osx.

huh.

 

You still need a modified kernel if you have an AMD CPU. That will not change unless Apple starts using AMD CPUs.

oh really? sorry my bad... i thought it was an issue from the past.

 

oh.. it says in [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url], "amd processors not supported" so [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] isn't an option. forget everything I said above.
