iATKOS v1.0i Released

Bandman9818,

 

These can all be found in the OSx86 Installation 10.4 Tiger forum. I suspect mods would prefer this thread to be left to only iATKOS-related discussion. Do some searching and reading there before posting your question, and I suspect you'll find quite a few answers for your set-up quickly.

 

Oh, and check the OSx86 Project Wiki for more info regarding your hardware.

iATKOS

(seed please, DL speed 0.9-3 kB/s 96,3%..)

iatkos 94.3% 1 downloaded 2 seeders 2.09gb, kalyway 346 downloads, 3.46gb 126 seeders,

go figure ? that was 8 hrs ago, 2% since then,.. kalyway now 548 downloads 212 seeders.

 

iatkos still at 3 seeders ??? total download 1 ?? something wrong ?

can someone please clarify what can be done with this install? with vanilla, pc efi and darwin can we:

1) use boot camp?

2) use parallels?

3) use darwin to boot windows as a dual boot? How much command line tweaking involved? steps?

 

Since no one has gotten the download for obvious reasons, I know not many people know definitive answers, but any clarification would help.

Why would you use Bootcamp? Bootcamp does the same thing that Netkas' EFI bootloader does, only reverse. Bootcamp emulates BIOS on an EFI system; Netkas' emulates EFI on a BIOS system. Emulating BIOS on an emulated EFI system on a BIOS system is....not smart.

 

As for dual booting, you have to run GRUB to do that. I read the instructions and said screw that. I dual-boot the lazy man's way: each hard disk has an OS on it, and I press F10 to choose my boot disk when my BIOS is booting up.

i asked to use bootcamp b/c it's easy to setup. i'm looking for ease of use and ease to setup. is netkas' efi bootloader easy to setup?

 

i like your way though. i may have to do that...

Use VMWARE Fusion, better than Parallels and do not use boot camp unless that you have a real Mac.

im kinda new to this whole dual booting with windows and leo, but i have vista installed right now, when the download finishes (hopefully before the end of the year...lol) will i have to completely wipe out vista? is there a way to create a partition? i tried researching on wiki and earlier in this thread, but im confused. just checked 58 seeds and counting!!!!! yay! but can anyone explain or give me a link on where i can find the best way to dual boot, i dont want to lose everything i have in vista

 

Thanks!

You need to create a seperate partition,yes either on your current or a seperate hard drive. For such issues, Come here:

[HowTo] XP + OSX 10.4.4-10.4.8 native dual boot - NO VMWare, no Linux, no Chain0 required. With pictures

A good guide, got me going with Acronis Disk Director

 

And to here (Tutorials : The Genius Bar)

 

I know you put it at the lowest speed (2X), but what format mode do I put it on?

 

Thanks,

Boot Camp

Maybe it's just me but.... when I boot up the DVD, it starts the Darwin loader, waits a few seconds, then reboots my PC

I didn't get to try out the Leopards releases because my PC was messed but I'm wondering if someone could tell me what's the difference between this and the last lot that came out?

 

Thanks people.

{censored}e, i got an 'unexpected end of archive' error, flipping 4 days for this piece of sh^&....

 

Waiting for the K man

Hey man, this release has an integrated EFI emulation system (different from PC EFI apparently, but same function) that allows you to use Apple's original kernel and acpi kext without modifications. This generally yields performance gains and the peace of mind that you can use Apple system updates without significantly breaking your system.

What program should I use to burn iATKOS onto?

 

Thanks,

I installed it, and after the installation, it is rebooting. My dual boot with XP is still working so that I'm able to connect.

I had the same problem with ToH ... Need to find a solution.

can u capture the problem with any cam to know about this problem.this is a one solution.

 

and there is another one you can go to uphuck forum and type a problem there and you will get a solution for your problem.

 

Best wishes.

I cant get the DVD to boot ather darin bootloader.

 

Starts loading Mach_kernel then reboot pc

Boot Camp

 

For OS X, I recommend using the built in image recorder; for Windows, if you don't have CD burning software, use ImgBurn.

install goes well but after the restart it goes for 1 nanosecond at darwin boot and it restart!!

i tried to play with the settings at bios but still no luck

i tried with efi emulation and without ,the same results

 

MOBO: P5K PREMIUM

 

anyone else????

for those who have booting loop with either kalyway or iaktos do -f and it should work also u need some bios changes to be able to boot

I've finally finished downloading iATKOS but it just reboots the PC about 5-10 seconds after pressing any key to install OSX.

 

I have a 4core-dual VSTA mobo with an E6600 and a 7600GT that I've had 10.4.9 installed on before (with a radeon 9800Pro) with the usual sata problems. I have tried with HPET on and off.

 

I've tried 2 different IDE hard drives, 1 maxtor and 1 Western Digital.

 

Anybody know why this might happen?

can't -f cause i don't see the darwin boot

it reboots at this point!

what kind of changes at the bios??

i did a lot but maybe i missed something

i never had any problem with other osx86 dvds

CD not booting.I try to put-x-v-x -legacy-v -legacybut no luck. keep rebootingAnyone help

In these releases those options you tried don't work it only works with ToH or BrazilMacTry -f like i did and also in my laptop bios (toshiba a200) i changed "Execute-Disable Bit Compatibility" to Enabled

can't -f cause i don't see the darwin bootit reboots at this point!what kind of changes at the bios??i did a lot but maybe i missed somethingi never had any problem with other osx86 dvds

Try to catch the boot screen by hitting F8 right after bios screen then enter -f right there

You don't explain much, you said you downloaded it and then ? did u install it or just booting with the dvd? and if you installed did u do a clean install or u did on the top of Tiger ??
