Does Osx Run ?

[SWN_Hellzone]

I have a Dell E520, it says waiting for root device, I have a older version of osx and was wondering if any one on here has got it running on theres ? The system i have has sata hdd and dvd-rom. Intel core2 duo which checks out on the hcl, and a intel mob, along with a GMA 3000.

currently my main machine...unlike most people I use this machine as my main machine running all my software and all my critical stuff...rock solid...uphuck is your friend

Uphuck v1.4iR3 works. You can also use Kalyway 10.4.10. It has a special Extensions.mkext just for the Dell E520 :censored2:

I'm curious, does anyone know if the e510 will work then?

The HCL says kinda, hoping someone had tried...

Everything looks good, though you might have to do a bit of tinkering with the Sigmatel audio.

[bee2000]

This is currently my main system also .. just to note I added the Quad 6600 processor and a realtek 8169 pci ethernet adapter for faster speeds when transfering files to other systems on the network .. also using nvidia Quadro NVS 285 for dual monitor support and not the intel g3000..

Bad ass, got it too install using jas final release. No ethernet, no audio, says q/e is enabled

ci is enabled but the reso is 1024x768 max. Going to install some options off the xXx10.4.10 installer and see if the packages work.

 

If anyone has links, do share

I'm using it. Works well. I wish I had the built in video and network. Hopefully the hardware refresh for the macbooks with bring the video support. Wishing that they will also bring 8256x drivers is a bit much hope for. I'm working on porting the linux driver but it is slow. However, as I've said in other posts... Apple says that its in the 8255x family. It should work with drivers we already have but I haven't found anybody who has got it. The closest thing has been a working 82562EZ. So, who knows.
