NoSGR Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 I just finished the installation of i-Atkos S3v2 on a Foxconn Renaissance. Full PC's Specs: CPU: i7 920 Socket: 1366 Chipset: X58 GPU: NVidia 9800GTX+ (TwinTech) RAM: 6GB (3x2 GB Slots), 1333 Mhz LAN: Gigabit LAN by Broadcom®5786 (DIDN'T WORKED!!) AUDIO: Realtek® ALC889 Here is how i made it work: Preparation - Downloads First of all you need a Hard Drive or a Partition (20GB or More). Format the Drive/Partition through Windows with NTFS or FAT filesystem. Download i-Atkos S3v2 (you can find it easy on any torrent/warez website) and burn it on a DVD.

Place in your CD Rom, the [url="http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/279450-why-insanelymac-does-not-support-tonymacx86/"]#####[/url] Legacy CD you have already burned Let it boot (it'll take about 2 minutes or less) As soon as it boots, a selection screen will appear. Eject your CD Insert your i-Atkos S3v2 DVD in your Drive and hit F5 After 30seconds, "Mac OSX Installation DVD" will appear on your selection screen. Select it and hit Enter That's it! Wait 5 minutes and the installation will begin! Installation As soon as installation menu appears, select your Language and click Next. Click on "Utilites" (on the top of your screen) and open "Disk Utility" Select the Drive you want to Install the MacOS and go to "Erase" tab. Select "MacOS Journaled" as Filesystem type and type a Name for your drive in the box. Click Erase (bottom right of the utility). Close the Disk Utility and click Next on the Menu that will appear. Agree to the Terms Select the Drive you want to install Mac OS to, and Click on "Customize" (on the Bottom Left of your screen) Select ONLY these: Boot Loader: Chameleon v2 RC5 Drivers->Main Hardware->Sound-> VoodooHDA (if Apple Driver is selected, remove it!) Drivers->Main Hardware->NTFS-3G Patches->/Extra Directory Patches->fakesmc Patches->Disabler Patches->RTC Patches->EvoReboot [*]Click OK and Start the Install. (it will take about 20-25 minutes) [*]When install is finished, eject the DVD and wait for your new MacOSX Installation to Boot! Configuration After the Welcome video, you have to type your Personal Information (if you want to). At the end of this survey, you will be prompted to create your system account by filling a username and a password. If the system freeze after you click on "Create" don't panic! Just reset your computer and voila! Your installation is finished! Now, you have to install some Kexts for your Graphics Card (in my case, it's a 9800GTX+). So, if you have the same download the kext package from here. Download Kext Helper from Here and place it in your Applications folder. Unzip the kext package and select all kexts Run the Kext Helper App Drag n drop all kexts in Kext Helper App, fill in your password (if you have one) and click on "Easy Install" When install completes, restart your Computer. Download 10.6.7 Combo Update from Apple's Website and Install it. You're finished!! Enjoy your MacOS! The only thing that you have to do now, is to buy a 10.6.7 compatible PCI or USB (Wireless) network card. I just did this with my iPhone's WiFi to USB Tethering so i don't need to buy a network card.
