Scroatdog Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 I have Tubgirl running on the following hardware: AMD 3800+ X2 DFI Expert 2 gig Geil RAM ASUS Radeon x1800xt Seagate 720010 500 gig SATA drive. Soundblaster Audigy (yeah, I know that won't work). During installation I could not use my USB keyboard/mouse at all, so I couldn't do anything. Mounted ISO with Daemon. Used VMWARE Workstation 5.5. Made a virtual installation to the SATA drive using persisent function, or whatever that was where you can write directly to the drive. Made sure to partition MBR format, OSX Journaled. I CANNOT get QE/CI working on my x1800xt. Can anyone tell me what/where I need to modify something to get QE/CI working??? Only that an audio doesn't work, but I'm not concerned about audio at the moment. I really need QE/CI working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herbalb Posted August 2, 2007 Share Posted August 2, 2007 Hi Scroatdog, the DFI Expert Board has nforce4, hasn't it? Did OSX boot as native OS on your SATA Harddisk or did it only work within VMWare?? About your ATI card, have you tried Natit or ATIX1xxx Installer?

CoeXXisT Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Hey, well i am new to all this but am super stoaked about it all... Bare w/ me on this, my current rig amd x2 3800+ 2gigz ocz 7950Gx2 dfi lan-party ultra-d is it possible to do a standalone install. i have a few hd's available and wonder if its possible to install it alone. I tried this so far i got all the way thru the install upto the point of where its supposed to restart and then it just hangs, i reboot and i get stuck at my post screen. i realize i forgot to add the mbr option so i disconnected as instructed, now i am trying to install it again and its just hanging here at the apple screen w/ thee ticker spinning... any suggestions before i use another HD?

CoeXXisT Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Well i restarted and it came up. everything works minus my Video card, altho it say 2 256 cards it actually 2x 512 cards so i didnt install the nv40. my other question is, it requires the cd to be in to boot, anyway around this? Thanx!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonj Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 This is by far the best release I've tried so far for my configuration. JaS would crash whenever I went to the system profiler or "about this mac" window and iTunes didn't work, not to mention Photoshop, and the fact that it had problems mounting disk images randomly. It was fairly stable before I upgraded to a dual core athlon64, but then it went to {censored}, even after a clean reinstall. I've had no problems at all with this Tubgirl release, and it even seems much faster than JaS. I enabled front row and it just feels like a real mac now. I don't have to worry about any quirkiness with osx86 anymore, so thanks very much, Tubgirl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitan Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 I tried it, with spectacular success compared to JaS (which, *once*, was able to find the root file system, and never after). Nforce 4 SATA worked right away: I use an A8N32 Sli deluxe , and my only hard disks are sata. Everything was found, and booted on, without problems. sound worked without me touching a thing. network worked without me touching a thing. the only thing is that i can't change the resolution of my GeForce 7800GT (XFX). I tried putting natit for 10.4.9 (well, who knows..), and i killed my system. kernel panic. had to reinstall mac os. What am I supposed to use for the graphics card? Titan? Natit? Where can I find them (on Diabolik, I find Natit v02, Natit v01, and natit 10.4.9 - but i assume that natit v0x are 10.4.9 or lower, and will still destroy my system). Are there titan drivers for 10.4.10, and where could I find them? Thanks, {censored}an Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spudw Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 could you explain the -f option a little further, kinda new to all this... i greatly appreciate it! Thanks! also anyway around the boot w/ cd? bust open the Terminal app. its in the Applications/Utilities folder. i would add this program to your dock if i were u. then do this: $ sudo -s Password: root$ cd /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ root$ ls NetworkInterfaces.plist com.apple.airport.preferences.plist [b]com.apple.Boot.plist [/b] preferences.plist com.apple.PowerManagement.plist root$ pico com.apple.Boot.plist pico will open to reveal the contents of the file like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple$ <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Kernel</key> <string>mach_kernel</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>[b]-f[/b] -v</string> <key>Boot Graphics</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Timeout</key> <string>1</string> <key>Graphics Mode</key> <string>1280x1024x32</string> </dict> </plist> the bold -f is where you want your -f to be. press Ctrl+X then answer y and press enter. you should be kicked back to the shell prompt. to verify that you saved the file correctly, do this: root$ cat com.apple.Boot.Plist <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Kernel</key> <string>mach_kernel</string> <key>Kernel Flags</key> <string>-f -v</string> <key>Boot Graphics</key> <string>Yes</string> <key>Timeout</key> <string>1</string> <key>Graphics Mode</key> <string>1280x1024x32</string> </dict> </plist> root$ anyways, i have had good luck so far with this version. i was previously running tubgirl 10.4.8 and it would freeze all the time. im thinking it had something to do with -legacy option in my Boot.plist. this version doesnt have that option enabled by default. my firefox gave me some divide by zero errors at first but i updated my flash player and it hasnt done it since. hopefully this will be the last time i install osx86 on this pc. thanks tubgirl and osx86 community! EDIT: I spoke too soon. My hack had been running perfect for 2 days then last nite it just froze up. Hard freeze. I rebooted and sure enough it lock up again half an hour later. Wondering if its a heat issue with the CPU or a memory problem? Hasnt locked up yet today. If anyone has similar issues plz let me know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spudw Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 ok my About This Mac shows my memory as 1GB DRAM 400MHZ but this machine is set at 533MHZ. im gonna try setting the dram clocking to 400MHZ and see if it helps with my lockup issues... has anybody ever had a dram timing issue with their hackintosh?
