MoldyBread Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Hey guys, great to see a development group so dedicated to this! Anyways.. I was wondering, I have a spare 80GB HDD and I want to partition the entire thing with OS X! i have the Deadmoo file (tiger-x86.tar.bz2) and I have a windows computer (windows drive is 200GB, I have a spare that I want all OS X). Can I just do the Ubuntu Method and partition the entire drive? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/3747-total-hd-partition/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoldyBread Posted October 23, 2005 Author Share Posted October 23, 2005 You know what, scratch that, I am going to NOT use deadmoo, I hear from the forums its old tech So I have settled with the Generic Install DVD. IS there a link to the install of this? Can someone PLEASE help me?

MoldyBread Posted October 23, 2005 Author Share Posted October 23, 2005 What about that Apple.OS.X.X.86.Generic.Install.DVD thing? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/3747-total-hd-partition/#findComment-23910 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoldyBread Posted October 23, 2005 Author Share Posted October 23, 2005 OS X was installed fine. I am having a problem with starting up, I can do it in safe mode only. When I go to try to start in normally, it says I need to restart. Once in Internet doesn't work (I got a p4p800 SE, Marvell Yukon). I tried putting in a USB to Ethernet adapter but that failed, and I want internet. The onboard audio is Realtek ALC850, I think that doesn't work. Any internet and audio suggestions? Also with the startup thing? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/3747-total-hd-partition/#findComment-23954 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also with the startup thing? To get sound, check the wiki. If you have an ATI graphics card, delete the ATI kext files. Might help you boot. Please post your complete system specs.

MoldyBread Posted October 24, 2005 Author Share Posted October 24, 2005 My specs: Intel Pentium 4 3.0E @ 4GHz stable WITH SSE3 S478 Asus P4P800 SE ATI Radeon 9800 PRO 128 MB 256 BIT 1gb PC 2700 ram (1) 200 GB S-ATA drive(windows) and (1)80GB IDE MAC OS X 10.4.1 LAN Chipset -Marvel Yukon 88E8001 NorthBridge -865 PE SouthBridge -ICH5R Audio -ADI AD1985 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/3747-total-hd-partition/#findComment-24023 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJägermeister Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 My specs:Intel Pentium 4 3.0E @ 4GHz stable WITH SSE3 S478 Asus P4P800 SE ATI Radeon 9800 PRO 128 MB 256 BIT 1gb PC 2700 ram (1) 200 GB S-ATA drive(windows) and (1)80GB IDE MAC OS X 10.4.1 LAN Chipset -Marvel Yukon 88E8001 NorthBridge -865 PE SouthBridge -ICH5R Audio -ADI AD1985 1) To fix failsafe try to delete the ATI kext with: #sudo -s # cd /System/Library/Extensions # rm -r ATI* By the way delete the TPM kext: # rm -r AppleTPMACPI.kext and try if you can't boot without "-x" now. 2) Your Audio card is supported: http://wiki.osx86project.org/wiki/index.php/HCLPart#Sound Just check the Wiki and the forum about it. (no sound in failsafe!) 3) For your LAN: If it don't work buy a Realtek 8139 (5€ in Germany) The only thing you will miss is QE and OpenGL because your Graphic card is not supported, everything else should work in your OSX86.

pc_guru Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Hi MoldyBread, What image did you use to install ?, tiger-x86.tar.bz2 or Marklar-Tiger.dmg ?, i'm dowloading right now the tiger-x86.tar.bz2 image, but it's 1.29 GB, so this will take me a long time. I ask you this because if the Marklar-Tiger.dmg image is better than tiger-x86.tar.bz2, then i'll stop this download and i'll star to download the Marklar-Tiger.dmg image. Thanks you for your time and good luck with your fixing.

MoldyBread Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 I used the Apple.OS.X.x86.10.4.Generic.Install.DVD. In the downloaded file, I burned the Generic-Tiger.iso image to a dvd and it installed just like OS X would.
