liebowa Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 For those that can't boot, you did make the partition active, right? Did you try leaving the DVD in but NOT pressing anything at startup - just let the prompt timeout - does it boot into the OS then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeAngry Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Seems I might be one of the first with a success story. I installed the iAtkos 1.0i on a Zepto Znote with a 2.0Ghz C2D, 2GB ram and a GeForce 7600 Go with 512MB. I formatted an unused partition (MBR scheme!) to be HFS (journaled) and executed the Darwin Boot script with EFI on it. And you know what? It boots perfectly, I installed NVinjectGo 1.0 (512MB) and now I also have a perfect screen looking at me. Also Windows is still bootable using the Darwin bootloader, so everything is working perfect for me, except for some hardware of which I knew it was going to be more of a trouble to get working. But at least I'm typing this message from my fresh iAtkos installation now, so I'm happy. Thanks uphuck and friends!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liebowa Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I just re-installed, this time I slected NVIDIA 880 AND I clicked the NVInject for my card, and I now have my 8800GTS back and working. Plus, I found KEXTS from a previous post for sound drivers for my card - so I'm running pretty well. The only issue is that the EFI & Darwin script keeps failling with error 2 - can't figure that out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GauchoMan Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Confirmed working for me! I burned and installed with EFI boot on a HP v6000t. Works perfectly - a true white box installation! Now if I could only get speedstep working under EFI.. edit: I successfully updated 10.5.1 to 10.5.2 anyone know how to get speedstep back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkidas Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 The install was successful. When I boot, nothing happens, my computer just hangs at "Verifying DMI Pool Data". I also tried booting the DVD and letting the timer expire which resulted in a reboot. I installed with every package checked except for that processor power one since I don't think I need it with my new Q6600, but maybe that is the problem.

Geeze Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Had a great install on my laptop. All works. I used GUID and EFI v8 (installed that on my own, not from the iAtkos DVD). Haven't run through everything, but all of the big stuff works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwong Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I had to use that Gparted disc to set the partition to boot, but it works great now. Nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plexman Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Installed fine for me with package/patch EFI emulation and NVinject all working out of the box Only thing I had to do was use "cpus=1" as the system was rebooted during boot after installation Intel Core 2 Duo 6300 2Gb RAM Asrock ConRoeXFire-eSATA2 Lan Realtek RTL8111B Audio ALC888 Liniksys Wireless PCI Card GeForce 7300GT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bofors Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I am still dealing with the "blinking cursor" problem. I have set the "boot" flag with G-Parted and formated the drive with an MBR partition table using Disk Utility. I am going to try not using EFI emulation next. EDIT: I was skipping the installation of the bootloader step (which is down by executing a "darwin boot" script from utilities menu on the installation disk.

naddy69 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Am I the only one who finds all the "iATKOS" {censored} Apple logos ugly and childish? I don't want this - I want standard OS X logos. I'm not even going to bother installing this turkey. I already have ToH installed, and I'm downloading Kalyway 10.5.1 right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsz0 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I don't want this - I want standard OS X logos. I agree but Kalaway includes a bunch of random apps preinstalled which I also don't like either. ToH or the flat install method using the retail Leopard DVD is the way to go.

Alessandro17 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 anyone unzip iatkos in linux? It didn't work, I used several apps. I had to copy it to my FAT partition, reboot in Windows and use WinRAR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindmar Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Apps are removed easier than poor stupid branding.

joot Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 For those of you who are unable to unzip this file, we may have downloaded a FAKE file. WinRAR will return an error message no matter how you try to extract it. Apparently, there is a FAKE floating around. The guy who uploaded it should be shot.

bibendum Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I installed with EFI successfully on a Bad Axe 2 Quad. Came at the perfect time, BTW, since my earlier install of Leopard died with a hard drive error yesterday. Still migrating my user from the DiskWarrior repair of that drive... Had to use the GPartEd disk to set the boot flag, and copy my IONetworkingFamily.kext from Tiger, but seems to be okay - shame about the logos, tho...

Does speedstep work ? I got 10.4.10 installed on it now, but it get's extremely hot (even with speedstep installed) and give's me a kernel panic or turns off after a while.
