NuhkaX Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 If you think that people who can even patch a DVD are going to start making there own kernels YOU ARE WRONG.LOL come Some People Cant even Follow Simple Guides to get OsX86 on there Own PC's.And Never Use Google. HAHAH Good point I didn't even think of that LOL!! Looks like I'm the clown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fagosu Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 I'm sorry for the dense question but if I understand correctly: When I get my retail copy of Leopard all I have to do is apply this patch and then I'll be able to install it on my hack? or do I have to get a different image for this to work?

guruuno1 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 k, I patched the kernel as per the included instructions and have the created hacked file. Now what? Do I need to inject it into a Leopard DVD DMG, if so, rename it, keep it named what it is, ???? FYI, you gotta edit the Could someone please post addition step by step directions. I assume this patch/hack is to make a Leopard DVD install on non-Apple hardware. If indeed it is, and it works, one might think that a tad more instructions might help, unless this is just for the super duper high end guru's, and not for us low end newbies that have crossed the line and become Apple newbies. By the way, you gotta patch/modify the patcher.sh file to point to the path embedded in the file with user info, etc. Sure a true hacker cracker might know, but let's share here...k?

I have the same question; Is this really all there is to it ? BrazilMac's method for example is much more involved, but no SSE2 support as yet - It involves its own (cut down in size too I might add) DVD too, not the retail :S. EDIT: I think one way would be to use the BrazilMac DVD and replace the kernel with this one for SSE2 users, otherwise you could use it by default (Supporting SSE3) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vboyz Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 Sup everyone - I took this as replacing the kernel into the leopard iso that you make after following the Brazil Mac's guide. I am trying it now, and will post later if any progress. I tried BrazilMac's guide without modifying any kernel, I got it to boot but it reboot the machine after trying to load something and stopped. Hopefully with this hacked kernel it will allow me to go further in the installation process. Crossing fingers....X EDIT: OMG, initial progress had shown...basically I am now able to boot into the installer, haven't installed yet because I'm preparing my partition now....but my lappy is a Dell 9300 SSE2, could this be real? Updates later.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboldinu Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 I think you need the original Kernel from the leopard retail DVD to patch...BrazilMac's DVD already has a patched kernel I think (SSE3 only) so I'm not sure if the patch would work.

dsc106 Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Great! Anyone know when an actual packaged installer/DVD will be out for Intel, AMD, SSE2 & SSE3 cpus available for download (so all you have to do is burn and install?) I read later tonight somewhere, but does anyone know if this is true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ky0_Sama Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 So I've already obtained a copy of Leopard, and I'm currently running Tiger on a partition on my Macintoshiba. I'd really like to upgrade to Leopard, but therein lies the problem. Everyone is installing Leopard on their hackintosh', and I've no doubt I would be able to do so myself, but thus far all the methods I've seen involve setting up yet another partition and installing leopard to it cleanly, rather than simply upgrading Tiger. If I were to patch my install dvd and then run it and attempt to install to the partition Tiger is on, would it upgrade, or would I end up with kernel screwageness? Any help is greatly appreciated, Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboldinu Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 I wouldn't risk upgrading Tiger; But you can wipe over your Tiger installation: http://dailyapps.net/2007/10/hack-attack-i...n-3-easy-steps/ --- If anyone successfully gets it working on an SSE2 CPU please tell me your steps .

Ky0_Sama Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 A clean install means facing the pain of backing up my files, re-installing Creative Suite 3, and ~groan~ kexts to get sound and ethernet running... maybe I'll just be patient.. meh. Thanks anywho... In an unrelated note, I've been kind of curious as to whether or not Leopard came with support for the Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG... I know its a stretch, but the possiblity was enough to peak my interest since Apple is slowly moving toward support for more hardware and The 3945ABG is pretty standard issue. Anybody know?

aboldinu Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 I don't see why it would, They only need to support the hardware found in their own products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanden9 Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 So if I have a copy of Leopard GM 9a581 Patched for Intel PCs (SSE3 ONLY) but have sse2... Can I use this? OR will I need to find another copy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboldinu Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 If you can replace the kernel with one patched for SSE2 you might be able to use it...at least from what I've heard. IMO we'll see some better DVDs come out with less fuss soon, such as the one from uphuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timan Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Is this possible to install off an external drive (if the pc boots off usb devices). That way we don't have to burn the dvd and what not, or if the machine doesnt have a dvd drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
np101137 Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 There is nothing in that archive that is specifically for patching Apple's OS. It is all source files that could be used on anything, and also an xdelta patch that could have some flaws that allow it to patch a kernel, which it was not made to do.

Another way to go is to restore the Leopard install disk image to a hard drive partition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EasyViber Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 I'm trying to patch kernel using my dualG5 but there seems to be something wrong with my sdelta3. It cannot be executed... any ideas? Making sdelta3 runnable Lipoing, if it errors, it could possibly be okay. Patching mach_kernel.i386 into mach_kernel.hacked patcher.sh: line 17: /Users/user/Desktop/581_AMD_Intel_SSE2_SSE3_Kernel_Patcher/sdelta3: cannot execute binary file Removing mach_kernel.i386 ------------------------------------------------- Patched, the new file is called mach_kernel.hacked To check the validity, here is the md5 of mach_kernel.hacked MD5 (/Users/user/Desktop/581_AMD_Intel_SSE2_SSE3_Kernel_Patcher/mach_kernel.hacked) = d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e The md5 just printed should be e7b6a81058f10e3199b9e07b9d5f8464If not, then something went wrong, so try again. Done! it seems it doesn't work on PPC... can someone please send me patched kernel on easyviber (at) gmail.com? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e-ghost Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 so. SSE2 with SSE3 emulation? Does this mean that with my SSE3 Athlon 64, it will be emulating the SSE3 stuff? haha I have this doubt also. if using this patched kernel on Athlon64 (which, has SSE3 natively), will the kernel force the SSE3 instruction to be processed by SSE3 emulation? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
