4. Click next, next, next until you get to the desination screen.

5. Open Disk Utilites, and format your free space to HFS Journaled

Thanks to the Project Titan.kext

 

Go to this site: http://omni.starchaser.org/titan/ and download the titan.kext (ther is in a link named November 4, 2006) to your desktop and unzip it.

 

1) Put Titan kext in your /System/Library/Extensions/ folder

2) Correct the file premissions:

 

sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/Titan.kext

 

sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/Titan.kext

 

3) Remove the cached and packed extensions:

sudo rm -f /System/Library/Extensions.mkext

sudo rm -f/System/Library/Extensions.kextcache

 

4) sync

 

and reboot.

sudo rm /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache

kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions/

 

System time

 

Again from a2000rick

 

System Time

If your clock is running fast then try this fix

1. In windows download PC Wizard (http://www.cpuid.com/pcwizard.php)

2. Run it, and under Mainboard ->chipset->northbridge find FSB (Mine was 266) (and mine too)

3. Boot into OSX with this parameter: fsb=266 (or whatever yours was)

4. If this fixes the problem edit your com.apple.boot.plist file

Its found here: /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration

5. in terminal type: sudo nano com.apple.boot.plist

6. add fsb=266 to the Kernal Flags string

7. WriteOut, and Exit

8. type:

sudo chown -R root:wheel com.apple.boot.plist

sudo chmod -R 755 com.apple.boot.plist

9. Reboot

 

OK that's it for now. Enjoy.

progress! it didn't make sense to me to add the device string to the SATA section, so I added it to the PATA section and left the device string under SATA for good measure. Works like a charm!

 

I might suggest updating your post to reflect two changes:

 

ethernet driver (for plain p5b at least)Ethernet Driver for Realtek (on plain p5b at least)

 

 

 

HD Sound Driver

actually the jmicron hack does not last more than 1 reboot for me. i can reinstall the driver and make the mod, reboot, and the dvd drive works for the 1st boot. after than, i get this dialog box at boot:

 

The system extension “/System/Library/Extensions/AppleVIAATA.kext“ was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product’s vendor for an update

 

Any ideas?

afya: i fixed it. i reinstalled it, but that's probably not necessary, i think it had to do with flushing the kexts, but i'll list all my instructions just in case:

 

download pions gigabyte 965 DS3 Pack installer (search forums)

 

Show the contents of the installer package, and copy out of it the Jmircon patch.

 

Run the jmicron patch installer.

 

it might work after running the installer, if you get a dialog after reboot saying it was installed improperly, then try all these:

 

sudo rm -f /System/Library/Extensions.kextcache

sudo rm -f /System/Library/Extensions.mkext

sync

kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions/

sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions/

 

Repair permissions with diskutil
