Hello

 

I have recently downloaded Mac OS X 10.4.8 [JaS AMD-Intel-SSE2-SSE3 with PPF1 & PPF2] that was lying around the net. And I'm following the instructions provided by hxxp://www.anyizhu.com/mediawiki/index.php/MacOSXInstallationGuides. Unfortunately, when I got to step 5.5 and has successfully got to the installation interface of the OS and has formatted a 10-gig partition (I used Patition Magic 8.0 to create this partition) to Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Unfortunately, when I am about to install the OS, there were no partition appearing in the screen... Can anyone help me?

 

 

I'm using Lenovo T61 to do this. Sorry noob here. :D

 

T61 Specs

Processor: Intel® Core™ 2 Duo T5600 (1.83 GHz, 667 MHz FSB)

Operating system: Windows XP

Memory: 1 Gb, DDR2 SDRAM

Hard drive: 120 GB, Serial ATA

Hi,

 

you'd want to format the partition to hfs (or journaled) while you are in the installation process. Do this by entering Disc Utilities from the top menu and use erase. There are some good guides at http://www.osx86project.org/ describing this as well.

 

We got the same computer btw, just installed the 10.4.6 osx86 and all seem to work except from wifi and sound. (Ethernet not tested)

 

Tell me if you get past this (my) point and I'll do the same :angel:

Curious if anyone has gotten everything to work with the Lenovo T61 yet? I have recently procured 10.5.4 and was wondering if I installed it would everything work for me?

 

Thanks

 

depends, LAN works now, Audio works on speakers only, video works if you have x3100 and if you have nvidia you can only change the resolution in com.apple.boot.plist. wifi works if you have Atheros - you have to edit IO8...kext. 10.5.5 works for NVS 140M only if you use Geforce* and NVD* kexts from 10.5.3 or 10.5.4 (same files). Recommended kexts attached.
