Rammjet Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 For AMD, just select the AMD Combo update and the AMD kernel. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/31027-jas-1047-dvd/#findComment-215536 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChechenMarzouk Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Hey JaS, Sorry to say, I haven't been one of this success stories and believe me, I have tried. I have used your 10.4.7 install DVD and it installs and works fine, except for my network card, which in turn doesn't allow me to connect to the internet. Then, I tried to follow your advise and tried to install darwin-tulip. Got the "Make: command not found" error. Tried to install xCode Developers tools and they wouldn't open. Then followed your advise using pacifist and installed both, xCodes and Tulip using pacifist but still, my network card didn't work. Got a hold of your AMD SS2 and SS3 updates, and tried them, each separatedly, (have totally reinstalled the system several times, hehehe) but I and not near as bright as you, and I keep getting the blue screen error. Then I tried to follow the instructions to fix that error, but either I am doing something wrong or just can't get my system to boot into safe mode. I am using Acronis on my 160 Gb HD, partitioned using first, Vista, then XP home, then Mac OS X and then the 10 Gb Shared partition. I start trying to boot on safe mode with JaS 10.4.7 install DVD inside my machine, Press F8, and then type -V -F -S sequence. I have also tried using -V -F -S -X and the same result. The machine stays on the black screen with letters (sooo dumb description) and then nothing. I am not very acquainted with macs, but sure as hell I would love to. I'll keep trying but if you can point me in the right direction I'd sure be more than grateful.

Rammjet Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 There is no working driver on OSX for a VIA Rhine II Fast Ethernet Adapter. To enter safe mode (-x) or single user mode (-s), you need to press F8 during boot. When OSX boots, the screen first turns black and then goes to grey with a spinning icon. As soon as you select OSX to boot and the screen turns black, start tapping the F8 key quickly and repeatedly until a command prompt appears. If you see the grey screen, you missed it, try again. At the boot prompt, enter either -x for safe mode or -s for single user mode. Don't enter both because they are different things and you probably will end up in single user mode (-s). Safe mode will take you to a GUI interface with many things disabled so that you can troubleshoot your installation. Single user mode will take you to a command line interface. Entering -v puts you in verbose mode so that you can see the system messages as it boots. You can combine -v with -x or -s. Using -f causes the system to ignore the kext database and to look at all of the kexts to get driver information. If you haven't messed with the kexts, you don't need -f. Once you get to either safe mode or single user mode, follow the posted instructions to fix up your updated installation.

ChechenMarzouk Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Thank you very much Rammjet. I will try that right away. one question though. It seems my network card won't work with 10.4.7 or 10.4.8 right? Do you think a D-Link DWL-G132 Wireless 108G USB Adapter might work? or what would you sugest I do? Definitely will need internet if I want to completely switch to OS X and follow the advises and info from this forum.
