Coda Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Thanks for your reply, Coda.Maybe you can check my new thread and maybe even tell that I would be better with the original Leopard installation? it's here:http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=95982 Thanks again! I would do a retail install. The only thing is - if you don't have another intel mac/hac then you need another hard disk to install kaly or whatever on first. Once you have a working kaly (even in safe mode, it doesnt matter about the gfx drivers etc) you can do the retail DVD install method onto the right hard disk.

MR.Winmac Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 if you look at the pre-patch file for the efi you will notice near the top a line something like -a /VOLUME/macintosh volume is the key word i dont know about your systems but i corrected the word volume to volumes as is t was on my system then efi went great and the Terminal install went fine if you read the very first post in this thread that is indeed the best and easiest way to do it i did not get any of the problems i see here i hope i saved some people some trouble coz that was my problem in the beginning but i had only been in this forum 3 or 4 days and found this guide and had leopard running retail a cpl hrs later Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/76404-%EF%A3%BF-leopard-retail-dvd-perfect-guide-1056-chameleon-20-rc1-april-72009/page/15/#findComment-684971 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Just make sure the USB disk is 'owners enabled' before you start the install.

yonyz Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Yes So if I will buy a new cheap Hard Disk drive and put it in the same PC where the HD I would like to install the Retail Leopard DVD on is, it will work? Or I'm gonna need a whole other PC with Leopard installed to do that?

FrankT Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I've read through this thread, and made one attempt. When I try to boot into my prepared disk, I get the OSX kernel panic each time (see the gray apple screen with spinning progress wheel, then dark gray power button box telling me I must restart). Admittedly, my attempt seems different than others, so it's probably my setup: Dell Latitude D830 laptop Using an 8 gig USB flash drive, rather than regular hard drive. I found another thread talking about the D830, and pulled some integrated Intel video kext files that it talked about. Anyone have any additional insight to getting it running from an external USB drive on a D830? Anyone have a pointer as to what to troubleshoot for the kernel panic I'm seeing. Thanks in advance for any ideas. I don't have another machine to mess with right now, so if the D830 is a deal-breaker, I'll have to wait until I have a different machine to play with.

jccar Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 is there any kernel that has S3 sleep & speedstep working at the same time?

thefinalprophecy Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 No there is not, and supposedly it is not possible. I'm not really even sure what the big deal about SpeedStep is... I guess it's fine for notebooks if it helps them save power but does it really matter for the rest of us?
