MacRonin Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Well I am really new to this game and I have been a Mac wannabe for many years, but the PC side has offered me many things not to switch. After many installs and getting blank screens on my T60p, I have finally gotten OS X running on my T60p and I am quite impressed by it and certainly the performance. But I have some issues of some features not functioning. First of all I will start out with my specs: Model: Thinkpad T60p 2007-93U Intel Core Duo T2600(2.16GHz) 2GB RAM 100GB 7200rpm HD 15in 1600x1200 LCD Flexview ATI FireGL V5200 CDRW/DVDRW Intel 802.11abg wireless - being replaced with IBM ABG mini-PCIe card Bluetooth/Modem Intel 1Gb Ethernet UltraNav Secure chip Fingerprint reader Since my main world is using Windows XP, I have dual booted both Mac OS and XP on the same disk with a transfer FAT32 partition for the 2 OSes to share. I am not using bootcamp and instead using Acronis OS selector to switch between the two OSes. What I have gotten to work and thanks for this great forum of information posted on this site. I can guarantee that I would not have been able to get this far by any means. -full QE/CI support for the V5200 -enabled QE2D and disabled Beamsync -USB seems to work as my USB mouse works -power management seems to work also, but I haven't tried suspending it yet. -ethernet works without a problem. -sound works to a degree as there is no full HD support for the sound chip yet. what doesn't work: no modem no PCMCIA/Cardbus no wireless - swapping out card no bluetooth What I really need is the PCMCIA/Cardbus slots to work because I need my firewire card operational for my external HDs. I could use USB, but I like daisy chaining than doing the hub and spoke with the drives. No I remember in order for me to boot OS X I had to delete the PCMCIA drivers, well since that function has been removed is there an alternative to getting that functionality back. Please remember I am not a techie by any standard so any "remedial" help is appreciated.

Zaiden Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Didn't you have a "Kernel Panic" problem every time you tried to boot?? My installation finishes successfully, but when I try to boot, it always ends up with a Kernel Panic. Any ideas???

Guest Ramm Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 MacRonin, search around in Rammjet's posts for some fixes to those problems (they are in the Tutorial Bar). And congrats Zaiden, are you sure you installed the correct files for your system?

Zaiden Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 I think I am... i've already downloaded 2 different DVDs for 10.4.8. Both of them had one option for Intel sse2/sse3 and another one for AMD. Obviously I selected the Intel one. Besides that, is there any other thing that could be causing the Kernel Panic?? Thanks again!
