The Amrit Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Heres an idea... Get rid of the boot loader! Maybe create one that: a) Has no wait time... b) If needed, can boot into s/u mode via a key combo c) The hard one: play the mac startup tone as provided here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sosumi d) Easier to use/customize... like ISOLINUX or similar If -any- is feasable, please post in this thread... Thanks! P.S. Forgive me of my spelling, i am always in a rush when typing Edit: Needed to get rid of Smiliey thingy in my list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
munky Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 to reply to your four points: a. the existing one can be configured with no wait time b. nice enough idea, but you can just specify a boot argument to do it c. practically impossible with the range of soundcards out there... you dont want to build a bootloader with an entire audio subsystem... do you?! d. bit vague.. what would you want to do? i mean, it *is* only a bootloader....

Possiably just initalize the 'driver' from the hardrive selected. Otherwise just ignore it... If that could be done, it would 'sound' like a 'real' mac Thanks! --Amrit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
