can it work on amd athlon x2 5000 rig

shouldnt a problem.. as long u willing to try n' error
also put some effort upon it

See my siggy..my both AMD rig and AMD Compaq Lappy all work. AMD cannot work with vanilla kernel ..other kernel like voodoo , speedstep , modbin ..etc should be no problem

its not that im not willing to try, but afaraid later same goes to iatkos, ideneb kalyway.. i d/load their latest release & burn into dvd but in the end, seems not working. so i just stick to leo4all, further i success update to 10.5.6.

the next plan is to get retailed 10.5.x dmg & try the chameleon method so no hassle to update direct from apple official releases

ur rig spec should be no problem to run retail mac (intel proc C2D can use mac default vanilla kernel)
Boot132 can use to boot retail mac--->here

i hope so.. left 10 part of files to be download to complete the retailed 10.5.0 dmg
dvd install around 6gb++ i guess

For me i not burn dvd iso on dvd-r ......i using external hdd . using disk utility .. restore to the ext hdd and install chameleon bootloader on to it to make it bootable.....eazy and fast . i can install iPC ,leo4all .. etc in 10 to 20minit

yepp, ive been thinking the same also
i saw this tutorial also.. hehehee

My mac is back alive again . Oh yeah, how do i find the EDID of my lcd monitor? thx

Dont choose install vanilla kernel ..choose other like voodoo , modbin, Speedstep or stageXNU

Manage to install using vodoo 9.5.0. But i only install kernal, bootloader and chipset. Thats all. After login, how to install the package from the dvd like gtaphic card, network card etc. Thanks.

Get Pacifist to extract the kexts from the dvd. Then you can use kexthelper b7 or osx86tools to install the specific kexts.

after 2 trial installation with XxX 10.5.6, i mange to get the perfectly run my own hackintosh. wohoooo.

my specs:

CPU: AMD Sempron 3000+
Chipset: VIA-ATA
MB: Gigabyte
Ethernet: Via-Rhine
Audio: Realtek AC 97 Via
Graphic Card:Radeon 9600Pro support

i'm currently on kalyway 10.5.2 and have been trying to install the retail OSX dvd via boot 132 method.
found that i have to build my own boot132 disc but i couldn't get Slimbuild to work properly. is there a proper guide on the net where i can follow?
and is anyone out there with the Gigabyte G31M- S2L kexts? or even a prebuilt G31M boot disc iso?

i managed to restore the retail DVD onto an external HDD and ran Chemeleon to install the bootloader onto the external HDD. It booted went into Darwin and as that thing spins around, the PC reboots. what am i doing wrong?

Hi

Have you tried the generic iso? What kind of errors occur with the slimbuild iso maker? What kexts are u using for boot 132? You could start with the generic iso and add additional kexts later.

It would be much easier to create a boot 132 usb loader. With usb loader you can add and remove kext without having to burn and recreate iso`s. Remember to backup yr extensions folder from kalyway install. u may need it later.


Boot USB



As for the pc rebooting i think you have the wrong kernel or i IntelCPUMdisabler kext is not loaded hence kernel panics, but of course you cant boot without a boot132 cd even if u have chameleon on the external HDD. The right kext are not loaded.

btw, which retail method you`re using?Kext EFI partition?

Actually i've been a little ambitious. i thought i try and use the Stickpin USB Boot 132 method once i've built the iso using Slimbuild. my confusion is actually regarding the outputted files.

i tried the [9]-step Stickpin USB Boot132 method with the generic.iso (40mb) as well. i followed the steps to the dot but it pops up with an error saying:
SYSLINUX 3.63
Could not find kernal image: linux
Boot:
im on an intel core 2 duo E7200 2.53Ghz. can't i use the vanilla kernel from the retail dvd itself?

im still rather new in all this.
my understanding is to:
1. get boot 132 CD( or USB or restored retail dvd in an external hdd with cameleon installed) working.
2. swap out the Boot132 disc and boot the OSX Retail DVD
3. run through and complete the OSX installation
4. run cameleon to install bootloader + kext into efi partition.

are my assumptions wrong?
