breakingbad Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Hi Mysticus. As I posted before about my LAN card the model is: DFE-520TX from D-Link. Any chance of getting it to work on Leo?? Altough I have my onboard lan that is a Realtek RTL8211BL. Should I try using it? Could you guide trough this attempt of making work? thnx in advance. []´s P.S. - While I don´t get my modified BIOS from Kabyl, I´m trying to make somethings work. Mainly to know the system works and get familiarized with it.

I took a look on the forum, and read that some people are able to make it work with via rhine 2 drivers. I was looking D-Link site, and it says that this LAN card is supported by Macintosh 10.2. Any chance to get it working only connecting it to PCI slot ??? I´m not so sure. LOL. But I´ll try it. I´m trying to get via rhine drivers. Tell you what happens in a while.

breakingbad Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 via rhine drivers should be in my gfx update package if i m not wrong... REALLY?? I´ll check it later. If you put in a file of your own, I trust. and know it works. I tried the driver that comes with the LAN card, but seem not to work. I tried and got no response at all. In fact, I don´t know how to check if the card was installed really. How the system didn´t recognizes, I´m assuming it doesn´t installed. []´s P.S. - Office 2008 is working fine in my system. I´m amazed with its speed. I´m imagining my rig working with 4 cores. Will be a crazy rig. You´re right man. You got on your GFX update the 2 drivers I want. FORCEDETH and VIA RHINE. As soon as I finish one little work here, I´m gonna try them.

cigarettes Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 @cigarettes: it may very well be the burning software as well... i would suggest you to check md5 as well before and after burning... (google accuhash== use tools/ hash calculator== not many programs calculate correct md5) you can get on board audio to run quite well, what HD audio model is it? 889? 198b? which one? but x-fi would be dream right now... also one intresting thing is that never heard of 2.4 x write speed on normal form dvdrw... only on slim types for laptops...? the onboard audio is a small sound card that fits into its own pci-e slot on the mobo (same one that comes on all RoG Asus boards now). Supremefx something. I am letting a friend use mine currently as his board was just the board, no cords, software, manuals etc. He needed sound, and I didn't need it. Thanks for the advice on the md5 checker, I'll check it out. And 2.4x speed was weird to me as well, first time I ever saw it, only alcohol has it for me Does anyone have any good recording software they have had 100% success with? I have nero, but once again I've heard it messes up OSX DVD's often. Thank you everyone in advance.

breakingbad Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 try forcedeth on your own risk, it may cause stability issues... just to warn you.. Wow. It´s incredible how incompatible the forcedeth it to my rig. Just installed it and when I closed the installation window my mouse pointer start gone crazy. LOL. I already tried using that badbios patch you sent me once after Kalyway and the SMC fix and before the GFX update but w/o success. Get stuck at same kernel 9.20 warningi. My mobo BIOS really sux with OSX. Only get it to work fine - I wish - when Kabyl´s get my modified BIOS. Until that, I don´t think I would be able to get it working like a charm. Even my D-Link ethernet adapter, that comes with an CD with macOSX 10.2 driver, works for me. I´m trying to get it to work, so I´ll look after information on the forum to see what I can get. I got one code for the installation of DFE-520TX (the model of my LAN ethernet adapter) but the explanation in how to apply it was a little bit confusing for me. But it´s ok. I´m having fun and learning with all that stuff.

I am pretty sure it's not the burner, it is a Sony dru-810a, fairly recent, its IDE, and it has always copied DVD's perfectly for me. I am going to try nero for 1.0 r3, it just finished downloading.

cigarettes Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 iAtkos r3 installed without any errors! I however get the blinking cursor upon boot. No big deal, I am looking up the solution to this problem atm, gparted livecd is about to finish DL, and I am going to set the partition active, and see if that fixes it. I formatted MBR the first time. Got blinking cursor, I tried again, just to see if I had more success with GUID, I actually get a b0 error (i think thats what it was. If not it was VERY similar), I am looking up this as well. I have run into a problem though, however it's a personal problem of only 1 more blank disc, and knowing once leopard works, my internet will not. So will writing the 10.5.2 update+gfx package files to the disc (drag and drop method) work for moving the files to OSX?

Mysticus C* Posted May 23, 2008 Author Share Posted May 23, 2008 #cigarettes: I suggest doing couple of things... 1) if you dont have much to loose on your hdd, make full clean install... and get ready for preparing the system for multi boot how? when in the installer, use disk utility to repartition the whole hdd... I suggest using 4 partition scheme... 1-osx journaled 2-osx journaled 3-dos 4-dos 1-2 for main and back up or main and test system 3-4 for windows and/or for linux whatever... I know that high speed hdds (raptor etc...) have bootloader problem with the scripts used in iatkos which is different than other dvds... I would try this and see if it will fix it... I doubt it will, so what i can suggest you next is to 2) try Kalyway 10.5.2. Because it has normal bootloader scripts and efi bootloader from netkas... (iatkos has different efi) everything you need is on the post#2... Good Luck...

AbetheGeek Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Just real quick: I have a 320G HD that has two OS X partition on it. When I boot Darwin gives me the option of booting from either one, with the first partition being the default. While diagnosing my previous problems, I think I must have Legacy USB turned off (even though there are no ownership problems). But now, I can't select the second partition since my KB doesn't work until I'm already in the OS. Any Ideas on how I can boot to that second partition? I don't want to delete the first (test) partition just yet. Thanks as always.

breakingbad Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 @MYSTICUS: Hi mate. Just FYI: I plugged my LAN ethernet adapter in a fresh install of Leo, and I couldn´t boot.

DFE-520TX definitly works for Leo using the ViaRhine.kext I got here. What a wonderful progress. And the best thing, I made it all alone. I`m getting very familiarized with OSX. Mysticus, I was looking for some info on QE/CI and discovered that QE = Quartz Extreme and CI = Core Image. Now, the thing that really matters... how it works? I see here in my mac info that mine QE/CI - qe=compatible and ci=accelerated hardware. What does that mean? The info i found here in the forum is not clear about it.

It is a huge pain in the ass to have to swap IDE cables from my 200gb to the 40gb HD's every time I wanna go from vista to OSX. And I am still very low on blank discs (still only have the 1 dvd). Thank you so much Mysticus, without this thread, I would not have gotten OSX to work properly. Does anyone know which drivers work for the striker extreme?

I am downloading the Kalayway 10.5.2 rar files from RS and when I extracted the first rar it had install instructions but no further instructions on how to burn one ISO of all rar files or to burn 38 separate ISO disks (i don't think this is what you intended). So, If we are to make one ISO which rar should we extract that has boot information on it? Completely lost at this point. Sorry for the ignorance.

I am absolutely amazed right now, this is incredible! Now my only question is whether EFI is working, and when I say EFI, I mean the official updates from apple, etc. I am having a problem unpacking the 10.5.2 update and the gfx update, it says "unable to unarchive "kalywayupdcombo10.5.2.zip" into "desktop". (Error 1 - Operation not permitted) I feel like this is an "is it plugged in" error. But I am fairly new to the workings of OSX. Thank you so much mysticus!!
