Hi,

 

I've finished following the guide, and now I need to install my graphics card and audio card.

I need to edit the ATIRadeonX2000.kext file to make my graphics card work, but I can't find it in the "Extensions" folder!

 

Also, before installing my audio card's official Mac driver, I would like to be sure that I have EFI and Vanilla kernel installed.

 

I selected to install Vanilla Kernel and EFI bootloader MBR- does that mean that I have EFI and Vanilla Kernel installed?

 

Oh, and I need to find a solution for my Wireless USB Network card.

 

And to find out why my Win XP partition is invisible! :P

Well I have Dell XPS M1210

Core Duo 2.13Ghz

2 GB 667Mhz Ram

120GB HDD

7400 GO

 

also i used NVinject either 2.0 or 0.2.0 something like that...

 

Well, I was wondering does the Kalyway 10.5.2 DVD Intel_AMD has all the patches or I still need something?

Put this info in your signature so everytime you write a post its there. Its going to really helpfull for those who are willing to help you. Also, Kalyway 10.5.2 DVD has 9.2.2 kernel patched...

 

EDIT: Here is the link to 10.5.2 dvd description... http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=98086

right now I'm unzipping the files that will be put on the 10.5.2 disc (combo update, kernels package, and graphics installer). when downloading this combo update it downloaded as 3.66GBs and when I extract, 62kbs is extracted. what am I missing here? :wacko:

 

the files are bootHelp and cdboot.pcefi.debug

mcdonald first of all,

 

NOTHING MENTIONED HERE IS A VIRUS. Kindly remember that and get off this thread, many have benefited from it and we don't need you to mess things up.

 

Roarsaur,

 

All I know is that they are seeding betas to developers, should be released sometime soon. I probably will EVENTUALLY update the guide but not right when its released ;)

 

yonyz,

 

The Extensions folder is located in the System >> Library folder of the Leopard partition/drive. For XP, try setting the XP partition as active. Have you updated to 10.5.2 and installed my package? Once you install my package it installs a patched kernel, not a vanilla. It doesn't matter though if you have a patched kernel, it works absolutely fine with everything. For EFI, when the black Loading/Darwin x86 screen comes up, just before it goes to the grey Apple screen something about EFI flashes for a split millisecond. If you can catch that you're OK, but even if you can't, if you got this far you DO have EFI installed.

 

What is your network card?

 

turbo_911,

 

You have a NVIDIA GEFORCE GO graphics card, you need the GO version of NVinject like this:

 

http://nvinject.free.fr/files/NVinjectGo.0.2.0.zip

 

Is that the one you installed? If it doesn't work try this one:

 

http://nvinject.free.fr/files/NVinjectGo_0.1.0.zip

 

Islander,

 

What turbo_911 says is right, just burn the ISO.

I found out yesterday, that my audio card doesn't have a driver for Intel Mac's, as they don't have PCI card slots, and the Juli@ card is a PCI one.

I wanted OSX for Music Production with Apple Logic, but I can't work with a onboard sound card.

 

I may try Hackintosh again, when I'll have a supported audio card. :)

 

Thanks for your help, ~pcwiz and macciti. :)

yonyz,

 

Glad you were with us :P If you want, look in the wiki, I believe there are some good M-Audio cards that are supported :)

 

longtom,

 

Restart and shutdown works with the netkas kernel, the vanilla kernel works, but no restart and shutdown. I personally prefer the netkas kernel, it works as good as vanilla. There are no issues as of now other than some minor sleep issues but thats about it :)

i have NVinject GO 0.2.0 version from Kaly 10.5.2... and I will try the 0.1.0 version to see if there are any differences.

 

BTW, Mcdonald was TotalNoob before... was a spammer here, so Mr.Bond took that into consideration...

 

One more thing, since no one replied to my other thread, does anyone knows why my cpu fan is always on? oh and also the cpu says that its dual core

but in the properties it shows only one core...

 

oh and btw here is that thread with more info and pictures what I mean about the dual core thing...

Thanks for help

What do you mean CPU fan is always on? It is supposed to be on, otherwise your CPU overheats...is it a different fan? PS. I notice that you are using a Dell, this thread is only for installations on Gigabyte P35 motherboards, there may be other problems with your Dell setup.

Thanks Mebster :), I looked at his profile and he has other similar posts like this where he does stuff just for the sake of attracting attention (e.g. Making 3 copies of a topic called "I swear it works" where he asks for help for his NOT WORKING system :))

 

EDIT: macgirl,

 

I have no clue what he means, either way he is somehow implying that something mentioned in this thread (Don't know what, but some kernel, Kalyway, NVinject, or my Gigabyte P35 installer probably) is a VIRUS. Which it is clearly not. I don't like it when people like him attempt to ruin a helpful thread :huh:

First post and I want to thank pcwiz for his guide and everyone else in the thread for all this educacional talk.

My system will be P35C-DS3R, Q6600, 2x2Gb, Asus 8800gt in a Caviar 500Gb Se16 SATA drive.

I'll follow instructions and post my results (still don't know which nvinject i should use with 8800gt and haven't decidec between vanilla and netkas kernel).

 

Thanks and regards!
