So I already have a desktop running OSX fine, time to get a netbook DONE... I did some googling and found out that there is a lot of trouble with the GMA 3150 but then i found meklorts fix. Im just wondering what distro would be good for this netbook im thinking iAtkos 10.6.3 but im not too sure any suggestions? I got it on sale for $250

The easiest way to install OSX onto a netbook is to use Meklorts NetbookBootMaker. It already has a kernel for the Atom.

 

Restore an Install DVD onto an 8GB USB stick.

Install NetbookBootMaker onto the USB stick.

Boot from the USB stick.

Install SL onto HDD.

Boot from USB stick, but run SL from your HDD.

Run NetbookInstaller.

 

Also... have a loot at this article if you want to upgrade to 10.6.5:

what does restoring to a flash drive mean?

i have the DMG of the 10.6 retail image do i just extract it to the root of my flash drive?

 

nevermind i see what you mean

OK so i got the installation part

For the GMA 3150 I checked the netbook bootmaker logs and it says that now its supported, so thats good

Will I need to install any kexts after the installation?
