Ok. So I patched the 8f1111 build .iso with the java boot patcher and it patched fine. I put the oah files in the usr/libexec/oah directory and the new mach_kernel's (including the experimental one) in the main .iso directory. Then burned it to cd. I slipped the DVD into my laptop and went to boot from the DVD and it spontaneously reboots. The Darwin screen never appears. It sits at the little blinking thing at the top left corner of the screen for a few seconds and then reboots. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Search around. There are lots of posts about this. It could be due to NX or PAE, or both. If you want help, you have to post what your hardware has, or no one can help you.

Hey. Yea...Stupid me, forgot to post my specs.

 

My Processor Specs Are:

 

CPU Type: Intel® Pentium® M processor 1500MHz

 

CPU Features: FPU VME DE PSE TSC MSR MCE CX8 APIC SEP MTRR PGE MCA CMOV PAT CLFSH DS ACPI MMX FXSR SSE SSE2 TM EST TM2

 

Along with that, on my Toshiba Satellite I am running a GForce FX video card, 512 RAM.

Your CPU lacks PAE, I think. Also, it lacks SSE3, which is causing lots of problems with this release (10.4.3) for hackers. Maybe change the title of this thread to "Problems with 8F1111 on Pentium M".

I have the same problem, applied the TPM, SSE3 emu and bootpatch to the iso,

 

Processor : AMD Athlon 64 3200+

Current Core Speed : 2200 MHz

 

Chipset

Northbridge VIA K8T800 (VT8383) rev. 01

Southbridge VIA VT8235 rev. 00

 

1GB Ram

 

Supports NX, PAE & SSE2

 

EDIT: It seems after a bit of searching that this instant reboot when reading the dvd is due to the CPU not supporting PAE, the weird thing is that my newcastle chip supports both PAE and NX, for instance when i go into system properties on SP2, below the ram specs it says Physical Address Extension..

 

Anyone got any ideas? ive tried removing the TPM patch from the .iso, that didnt work then to be safe i tried adding the noNX patch to the kernel that also didnt work..

I also have this problem with the 8F1111 build. I've downloaded the image and only patched it with anti-tpm.

When I try to let my system boot from the OSX install DVD, it only reboots as soon as it try's to boot the DVD.

 

My system is;

Gigabyte GA-8I915G-MF (GMA 900, NIC working / SND doesn't)

Pentium 4 3,2 Ghz 1MB w/ HT enabled

2,25GB DDR

 

My current installation is based on the Alpha II image with some update file from 1.4.3 (have flash working in Safari x86 etc..), and is running great. I can even play Quake 3 on it :(

if adding/replacing files on the iso, use transmac first, then ultraiso can burn. the cd contains a hybrid filesystem, HFS+/ISO , UltraISO cannot edit the HFS+ part, that table gets dropped when you save it. hence the auto-reboot from the DVD.

 

This is assuming that any neccesary ppf patches needed have been performed.

People, i've read all posts about installation and all wikis and I can't do it! Please Help! Between the different versions and the different patches and the lack of proper images, I successfully installed the 10.4.1 build on my IBM T41 Laptop w/o wireless, but the image i downloaded for it was already patched.

 

Now I have an original 10.4.3 8f1111 dmg image and the patches from maxxuss' site b4 they were removed. Would anyone please point me to a reliable Walkthrough of the patching process (coding ok). Also how to update to 8f1111A and the URL of the update file.

first , convert from dmg to iso using ultraiso then you need to apply the ppf patches if needed using the ppf-o-matic thing.

 

then open this in transmac and copy your tpm files using 'data file' type to your image. then burn this image ( dont burn at too fast a speed, if you can afford to wait 30 minutes, then you are better off doing so, this means 2x burn )

 

Then ensure that all IDE / CDROMs are using master/slave and not cable-select.

thanks dsi.. but which patches do i install? i remember someone saying that 2 of them are not needed, i have cpuid, nonx, rtc, sse3 emulation and sse3 patch which of them should i use? also should i patch the mach_kernel.orig and re-insert in the iso or patch the iso and patch-o-matic will do the rest?

it all depends on the CPU,

whether it has XD capability, PAE, SSE 2 or SSE3 etc.

 

for My CPU, an Pentium 4 630 , it has all the above. and is EMT64/EIST/SSE3/PAE/PAT/XD/HT

only patch i needed was the tpm.

 

the ppf patches automatically alter the iso image. the tpm is raw files, and so you need transmac to read the HFS+ volume, copy over those files, and save then burn it.

 

if you save the iso using ULtraISO, it will discard the HFS+ filetable, and preserver only the ISO table, resulting in an unbootable DVD, resulting in immediate restart.

I did exactly like you said, but still i get the this hardware is not supported message upon boot, that's in vmware.. and i'm not using the iso in vmware.. i'm mounting it using alcohol then pointing vmware to that mounted drive. can you please be more detailed i feel i might be doing something wrong.

first, you cannot use 8f1111 in vmware, as the PAE capability doesnt exist in VMware yet, and there is no patch for it.

 

You dont mount anything in alcohol

burn the disc to a physical DVD after any neccesary patching, and then boot from the DVD and install to a clean hard-drive

 

if you want to use vmware, use the 'deadmoo' vmware patch files ( tiger-x86.img )which is 10.4.1 and prepatched from sse3->sse2 and anti-tpm

not sure if 8f1099 10.4.3 works on vmware.

I apologize, but that is incorrect. If you boot windows with a "/PAE" (you will have to edit this in the System Properties>Advanced>Startup & Recovery Settings menu), VMware will have access to PAE (as long as your processor does actually support PAE). Also, you can mount the iso image with DaemonTools and the like, instead of burning a DVD.

 

I do not have a DVD burner, but was able to instal 8F1111 with the DaemonTools/VMWare combination without much trouble at all.

I think VMware has been found to not correctly mount an HFS+ iso file on its own, but mounting the same iso outside of VMware and then pointing the VMware guest operating system to it works fine.
