Chaleman Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 In order to fix my HPET issue i had to delete system/library/extensions.mkext, dunno if the same could work for you, just a thought. Radx, how do you delete this? I have Vista and have the same problem when booting to Leopard... If I press F8 during install and type -s on the "boot:" prompt, after pressing enter the booting continues :-( Can you please specify how to delete this? Thanks!

Chale Download the MacDrive trial for Vista. You can then go into the Leopard partition from Windows. Look at the first post of this thread for more details: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...=68934&st=0 Incidentally, I have done this and it cured my HPET issue, now my system hangs at the Mac Logo...

jon w Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Thanks for the MacDrive tip, that fixed my HPEC problem, now I have the same problem as others:"Still waiting for root device"I have 1 disk, Windows XP on the first partition, flat image on the second. I'm using EasyBCD to choose Leopard, then hitting F8 to try -x, -v, -s. I get "Still waiting on root device" with all of these flags.Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3L, 1 sata drive, nvidia 8800 GTS.I have a theory that we have to repair permissions after using MacDrive. Im booting off a DVD atm to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cee Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 I just think i cant install it with a Abit Fatal1ty FP-IN9 SLI (nForce 650i SLI) mobo. when i do the same thing with mine Asus P4pe mobo ( pentium 4) it works great. If some has the same mobo like me and managed to install Leopard. would love to hear how he did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E@zyVG Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 Can anyone confirm if this image works on AMD SSE3 with SATA drive, based on nForce4 Ultra chipset. I have DFI nForce4 Ultra motherboard with ATI X800 GTO2 card and Audigy 2 ZS sound card. Right now Tubgirl 10.4.10 is working nicely with internet connection via my built-in ethernet card. Only ATI card and Audigy 2 ZS are off. Apart from other 2 SATA drives with Linuxm, I have 3rd SATA drive with 3 partitions -> 1st primary = Vista 2nd primary = Tiger 3rd logical = Vista data I want to install Leo instead of Tiger ... which dd command I should use. As far as I understand I don't need to patch this image. I am new to this hackintoshing, as Tiger is being there on my drive for only few days. Any help and tips appreciated.

2LMan Posted November 7, 2007 Share Posted November 7, 2007 I downloaded this image from the Demon and I "hatched" it from my tiger install. Must say I was a little taken back when I heard and saw the start up vid! The only thing I needed to install was the IONetworking.kext found in the ToH kexts to get Time Machine working. Other than that, I was up and running in about 15 minutes. This is the fastest OS install I have ever done! Everything is working on my machine! My machine specs are in my sig. Also, does anyone know what exact install this image is made from (ie BrazilMac, ToH)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadite66 Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 1. so can we patch the efi bootloader after installing the flat image file and copy over the original kernel? 2. what benefit do we get if we can do this? 3. can anyone post a newb guide to doing this if its worth it. or suppose we can wait for the new uphuck release but it would be worth saving myself more gb's of download if i can patch what i already have.
