vboyz Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 Congrats! I also have an Inspiron 9300 with Tiger 10.4.8 running on it and I'm looking forward to getting Leo running on it.So how did you get it to use natit? which version? I'm currently using Natit v0.2 with the dual-screen support in Tiger, will this work under Leopard?Do I need to comment out any of the postpatch.sh so that the NV drivers don't get removed?Thanks.Sup guy...yeah I am using Natit 0.2 with dual monitor support as well and it's working with native resolution of 1900x1200 on my WUXGA screen.I didn't remove anything from the postpatch.sh.Hope this helps!!Nice work dude... gonna try it soon.Is it possible to install it on a sata hdd?GreetzYep, my Dell 9300 has SATA drive in in and at first I installed it to an external 2.5" SATA USB drive for testing. After it is setup correctly, I carbon copied it over to the internal SATA HDD on my laptop. All is working well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nylock10 Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 I've successfully patched my DVD and backed up everything, I'm going to give this a shot in a little bit - thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

studentism Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 I cant find BrazilMac's guidelink? You might find it on a certain bay. Going to attempt leaving xcode and printer/languages on the image right now -- primarily for the former, as I don't want to D/L another 1.1GB. Will report back soon-ish.

Uoila1 Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Thank you, this guide worked perfectly. It installed and worked cleanly on my P4 2.53 Northwood SSE2 NOT SSE3 CPU. Works great, the only odd thing is that my PS/2 mouse wouldn't work, but a USB mouse plugged in and worked fine My setup 2.53Ghz/1GB/40GB Seagate IDE Radeon 9000 PRO Realtek 8139 Ethernet Again... it installed cleanly (actually, after doing all the image patching, it was easier to INSTALL than Tiger) AND EVERYTHING WORKS GREAT. I haven't tried time machine yet .... i'll let you all know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e-ghost Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 the image I am downloading is already 4.3G. So I suppose it was patched already. So where can I get a copy of mach_kernel ? Is it huge in size?Anyone can help providing it? Thanks! After it is setup correctly, I carbon copied it over to the internal SATA HDD on my laptop. All is working well.Hi vboyz, is it true the we cannot natively install on an internal SATA HDD at all? We can only transfer to internal SATA after the installation was down? So what program you used to carbon copied it? Can Norton Ghost do the carbon copied operation???Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobtentpeg Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 OK, i get to this point in trying to extract the mach_kernel what next? bash-3.2# cd /Volumes/Mac\ OS\ X\ Install\ DVD bash-3.2# ls .DS_Store Instructions etc ._Instructions Library mach_kernel ._Optional Installs Optional Installs private .fseventsd System sbin .vol Volumes tmp Applications bin usr Install Mac OS X.app dev var Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MeTheOrion Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 vboyz - i have the brazilmac's patched SL dvd - which i think is patched for SSE3 only. I also have the kernel files for the SSE2 hack. Can i replace the mach_kernel file of that dvd iso with the new kernel for SSE2 and get this going? Or is it that i NEED to have the original untouched DMG first before i replace the kernel. Your answer will save me a lot of days downloading .. Thank you for your help.

I actually tried to installed it, but didn't go all the way through, to the internal and seems to be ok. I did install to external USB just because I wanted to test it out first before I delete my Tiger install on my internal HDD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as it was patched for SSE2 then you'll be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heero Yuy Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 I think this has already been asked, but I dont think anyone has answered the question. Where can we find DSMOS.kext? I have a Tiger 10.4.8 Install and I have found AppleSMBIOS.kext, but cant for the life of me find DMOS.kext. Any ideas? Many Thanks in Advance!

If you have the Tiger 10.4.8 JaS SSE2/SSE3 DVD, you can mount it and open a terminal and type: "cd /Volumes/path_to_1.4.8_DVD/" and now browse around the System/Library or System/Packages to find it. I can't remember exactly where it is, because I already had Tiger installed so I just grabbed it from my tiger partition. i think i already did it with the updating instructions?nothing changed i did it all again and this is it.

I did install to external USB just because I wanted to test it out first before I delete my Tiger install on my internal HDD.Thanks for the tips! So how can you carbon copy the whole installed OS to other partition (on other HDD)? Can Norton Ghost do this? (HFS+ supported?) Or I should find another tools? Please teach me. Thanks! Also! Can anyone kindly give me a copy of "untouched" mach_kernel? My installer is SL patched DVD and I can't find an "AMD patched mach_kernel" else where. Please help~ I can't wait to download another 6.7G image (the SL disc took me 3 days to download already). Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
