Korrupted Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Has anyone managed to install Leopard on a P35 chipset? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emitemirp Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 Yep. I have it installed on my Gigabyte ga-p35-ds3r. I used the leopard flat image and it worked (mostly) out of the box. I had to get the kext for my graphics card and I have yet to get audio working, but everything else runs awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korrupted Posted November 9, 2007 Author Share Posted November 9, 2007 I just bought the exact same mobo(GA-P35C-DS3R), but I am having issues installing both Tiger AND Leopard. The only way I can get the DVD to boot is through having the sata disks to RAID in BIOS, and when I boot the Leopard DVD(Retail Brazilmac), it freezes. On Tiger(Uphuck 10.4.9 i1.4 r3), I get a kernel panic or Still Waiting for Root Device on any setting. Anyone have any advice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have any advice?Check out http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...=69316&st=0 , it's a thread about people getting the P35-DS3R working. The short answer is that you either need to install Leo on a disk hanging from the JMicron controller, or set your ICH9 to AHCI mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sapo Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Asus P5-K P35 chipset here. Install XxX 10.4.10, install Nvinject for 8800, and a lot of aplications, then install ToH Leopard, reboot and Bye. Sapo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macmaniac Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Yup. Brazil Mac method. Haven't been able to get the ToH RC2 to get past after finding BSD device. (yes, it finds the root). I tried several different burns, mounted the image on a hard drive, everything. Always the same. Either I got a bad download or ToH doesn't like Asus P35K wifi ap.

The Hooligan Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I had the "Still Waiting For Root Device" problem installing Leopard (Brazilmac disc boot method and ToH) on my P35-DS3R In the BIOS set the SATA mode to AHCI and the next option in the list to "NATIVE" Then the Boot DVD can recognize your HD's (hopefully ) I installed my video driver but have yet to get my audio working.
