New hackintosh user, saying hello!

[mrbirdsend]

Hi everyone!

Just wanted to say hello. I figured I would do so in the netbook / notebook area since that is what I am using.

I've been trying to get OS X to work on a PC laptop since Tiger, but just recently had luck with a Kalyway distro of leopard 10.5.2

Anyway. I'll be working on a spec list of my laptop, with kext installs that I've done to get things working. Graphics driver installed (kext) was my first victory. If I can get he wireless to work, I would be a happy camper.

Anyway, I'll post the specs of my system so hopefully it will help others too.

I am using a Compaq Presario CQ60 211DX maybe that will help anyone who's wondering if it can be installed on that laptop. It's working pretty good so far.

More details to come.

Happy to be here at InfiniteMac!

Thanks

Hi mrbirdsend,

Welcome to InfiniteMac and enjoy your stay here!

It was a bumpy road then trying to get it running. It's cool you finally made it. I hope soon you'll be on Snow Leopard.

Best regards!

Hi, I have the same laptop and would like to use osx on it.

could you please list the resources you used to get it working?

I have a USB install (prepped for a netbook) that will run and install to it fine, but i get a kernel panic when i try to boot it.

Thanks.

cheers.
