[help] OS X on 1st gen AppleTV

[bartik226]

So, i found apple tv 1 gen and want to boot it with mac os). There are such themes in the internet but they are old, no up-to-dated and with bad links (looked in google).

About the hardware: pentium m 1.0ghz geforce go 7300 ram-256mb.

So i downloaded installed .dmg of mac os leopard 10.5.8, mount it on apple tv's hard drive, put boot.efi, use voodoo kernel.

I have read in one theme, that i need to delete Ati, Ge, NVD kext's. And i tried to boot with these kext's and without...

System boot only before apple logo and activity indicator. Boot flags that were used -f и -x и -s и -v и cpus=1 и arch=i386, nothing helps. In verbose mode there is no kernel_panic.

Outputs from verbose:

 

localhost /usr/sbin/ocspd[79]: starting

localhost mDNSResponder[25]:Couldn't read user-specified Computer Name; using default “nembers&lettors.local” instead

localhost mDNSResponder[25]: Couldn't read user-specified local hostname; using default“nembers&lettors.locall” instead

localhost mDNSResponder[25]:Couldn't read user-specified Computer Name; using default “nembers&lettors.local” instead

localhost mDNSResponder[25]: Couldn't read user-specified local hostname; using default“nembers&lettors.local” instead

 

Tried to find in google, but no helpful answer (it seems that it is something that helps make to share folders local), so i decide just to remove it (but it's not the right way!).

 

Now situation looks like this:

localhost /usr/sbin/ocspd[61]: starting. (number in brackets sometimes changes the same as in mDNSResponder)

no answer was wound, but i understand that it's something that starts before desktop launches (don't know exactly)

and

ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin::start - waitForService(resourceMatching(AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement) timed out.

these two strings shows together but sometime in other order.

I have read that it connects with gpu (event when it's written cpu in the middle of the string), but i know that go 7300 does not work with standart kext's, tried to fix using different ways but no happy results, and nothing changes. Tried to drop in extensions titan.kext, nvinject.kext and others, nothing happens.

 

So please if you know something or have some suggestions  write here.

Spend for it more then week. Also there is nothing up-to-dated in the internet so it may help other people.

Sry for my english it may be to so good..

here it is snow leo) it is the best way for me to launch snow leo, i tried to use guide in this thread but i cant set iAtkos right way (6 step)

Now i can't boot even a leopard and tiger also=(

often have mDNSResponder issue and can't boot

the most annoying thing that many people had problems with it but there is no proper suggestion what to do, it seems that i tried everything...

Everything about this, it's a bit old and it seems that most of the links are dead.

But this tutorial you linked needs just iAktos and seems pretty easy, whats your problem with that step 6?

p.s.

I know thats a fun project, but with 256mb of ram the OS is gonna be mostly unusable...

Good luck !

With some tries , and a bit of fortune,

You should be able to run Osx on AppleTv

 

Have fun

there i can't find how to enable sse3 emulation and seatbelt.kext and Firewire remove, also i have kernel panic because of qoopz kenel 10.3 and 10.2 problem coonects with unable to find driver for this platform acpi - also nothing helpful in internet was found, however many people have such problems.(

Yes, it's partly fun project) yes, mostly unusable, but i can use screen share and ssh =) also it the one way to launch airplay on apple tv 1, so i'm trying the best)

and you are sure it's very old info about it in the internet, and there are huge amount of bad links.

 

Good luck !
