oxs68mac Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Here are my notes on installing uphuck's 10.4.9 v1.3 on my Dell Latitude D830... Most of my issues now I guess are finding drivers but hopefully this can help someone else. I think the key to success here is only install what you absolutely need, i.e. don't install both SSE3-1 and SSE3-2, just pick one.... Specs: Core 2 Duo T3700 2.0 Ghz 2GB RAM Broadcom 57XX Gigabit Ethernet Dell 1490 Dual Band a/g NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M 256MB 250GB 5400RPM SATA 1. Installed Windows XP SP2; created partition during setup of 119GB 2. In XP created a second partiion from the remaining unallocated space of 119GB. Used diskpart (create partition primary id=af and set it to active) 3. Booted from 10.4.9 DVD Disabled the following in BIOS (A02) - All wireless devices - Dynamic Acceleration - SpeedStep Enable Note: I did not have to disable Multi Core Support; When I didn't disable the components above I would get panic Selected the following packages: - 10.4.9 Intel - Kernel; Intel SSE3-2 - Patches; IOATAFamily.kext 10.4.8 - Patches; Remove CPUPowerManagement kext - Patches; Remove Thermal kexts - Drivers: nVidia (Titan, nVidia mobility) - Drivers: ICH8 - Drivers: USB - Drivers: Azalia Audio - Drivers: IO80211Family.kext 10.4.5 - Drivers: PowerManagement bundle - Applications (all) Dell Wireless 1490 currently works about 50% of the time. When I re-enable it in the BIOS sometimes OSx will boot and then I get a screen telling me I need to restart; this will go on until I disable the wireless again. Then sometimes I can enable the wireless and it will boot into OS X fine. No drivers or not deteced: - Wired Broadcom GigE 57XX - NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M - Dell Wireless 1490 Also not detected is the integrated fingerprint reader; not even sure it supported by OS X When the OS X install completed and rebooted I had a dual-boot darwin screen showing: hd(0,1) Windows NTFS hd(0,2) OSx86 A 5 second countdown was also there; anyone know how to change this menu? Update: Figured out this just uses the disk labels. I did not label the XP disk before so I just booted into XP, named it Windows XP and now menu shows (also decided to change the OS X drive label while I was at it): hd(0,1) Windows XP hd(0,2) MAC OS X Just for the sake of testing I ran this configuration/install 6 times and worked all 6 times. On the 2nd install I ran the software update figuring it would screw up the OS X but I had to try , sure enough it rebooted after installing the patches and kept on rebooting. Final results are: Working OS X/WinXP Dual boot - No sound, even though it shows sound is working; volume issue? - No wired Gigabit Ethernet - Sporadic wireless Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/56558-dual-boot-os-x-uphucks-1049-and-windows-xp-on-a-dell-latitude-d830/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluoro Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 No drivers or not deteced:- Wired Broadcom GigE 57XX - NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M - Dell Wireless 1490 So you didn't get the NVIDIA hardware working? Does anyone know if this is possible? I'm wondering, because I was thinking of getting a Thinkpad T61 and the video options are either the NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M or the Intel GMA X3100.

I've got uphuck 10.4.9 installed on my T61, and it's working, but without QE or CI (yet, at any rate). I'm trying to get that working but failing so far.

D43m0n Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Hi there, I've got the Dell D830 yesterday, I've managed to get the Uphuck 10.4.9 1.4i installed on the D830. I have no audio, (wireless) network or working nvidia graphics. You say you have some kext loaded for the nVidia Quadro NVS 140 (PCIe) card, could you please tell me which kexts (or packages) you installed or actived to get any other resolution than the 1024x768? I've got the Intel N wireless chipset with the Toshiba bluetooth stack. The bluetooth stack seems to work (is recognized). How are you guys holding out on the other devices (network, audio)? Thanks in advance Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/56558-dual-boot-os-x-uphucks-1049-and-windows-xp-on-a-dell-latitude-d830/#findComment-462350 Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxs68mac Posted October 5, 2007 Author Share Posted October 5, 2007 I updated to 10.4.10 and now my wireless seems stable but no N, only G. Still no audio, GigE or nVidia Quadro NVS driver. Also just noticed something strange. I cannot seem to install some software; when i try to mont a .dmg sometimes i get an error saying that the "device cannot be configured" Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/56558-dual-boot-os-x-uphucks-1049-and-windows-xp-on-a-dell-latitude-d830/#findComment-463688 Share on other sites More sharing options...
