Zephyroth Leopard AMD 10.5.2 Rev.2 Issue Discussion

[WinLinMac01]

If you are experiencing errors/problems with Zephyroth's latest, 10.5.2 Revision 2, post those errors here to ease Zephyroth's next development of his upcoming Patch (in a couple of weeks). He can visit this discussion to follow-up and add any necessary updates/fixes to his next PPF release without having to scrimmage through all of the forum discussions.

This is a Post Installation Category for Zephyroth's Leopard Mac OS X AMD 10.5.2 Revision 2 Release.

[mus1]

Already mentioned it in the other Thread:
Finder -> Go -> "Connect to Server..." doesn't work at all, no matter what I type, it always says that the URL would be invalid.
I also cannot connect to smb-shares. When I click on a share it says "Connection failed".
Everything else works fine so far. The NTFS-driver is working fine as well.

fix permissions on ext2fs kext

[WinLinMac01]

How did you obtain the release already when the 9 .par files have not been fully uploaded yet? Please explain, thank you. =)

Instant reboot on startup of installation dvd. :(

you dont need the par files, they are just for checking the rar files. I you have all 71 rars, you should be able to extract them, if not, then one of them is broken.

[WinLinMac01]

thank you clarifying that. That means I should be able to have a full release. Hooray, thanks. =) so I can go ahead and simply delete all of the .par files if the extraction process is a success, right?

Hi all,
first of all thanks for the very good work.
Just a simple question, is it possible to update from a running rev.1 to rev.2 without deleting all the indivual stuff which is already there?

Thanks

[Raldo]

support for ext3 is a project of zephyroth or is ext2fsx? Because project stopped in 2006, and there are many different danger for fs using that drivers!

[WinLinMac01]

Unfortunately there is no way to update, you can only do a clean installation if that's the case. If you need the 10.5.2 update for your AMD system try to run eddie11c's update listed in another discussion thread.

[walter225]

Maybe you understand me wrong, i have got already the zephyroth 10.5.2 revision 1! running on a AMD system.
Now, cause i downloaded revision 2!, i want to install this, especially because of Sata support for my Plextor Burner.
Is this update possible?

[WinLinMac01]

The simple answer is no, you would have to backup your existing data and perform a clean install.

[nitzw]

is there a guide to install Rev.2 from nothing, for newbies that have never done this before (well, correctly hehe)?

I just hope my mobo is supported! (ASUS K8VSE-Deluxe, NB VIA K8T800, SB VIA VT8237)
Thanks for the hardwork!

[NUCLEaR]

I'm getting a chain booting error after adding a chain0 file to bcdedit in Vista.

MacDrive shows Leo installed fine on another partition.

[WinLinMac01]

You can use the same guide that was designed for 10.5.1 Revision 1 you know. Practically the installation/configuration process is the same thing with similar (identical) procedures.

Well... my problem is that I found some... Not sure which one is THE one. And I'm kind of trying to figure out what is EFI and GUID (or do I need it).. But I suppose I'm not posting in the correct thread. Thanks for answering WinLinMac01!

[WinLinMac01]

Don't worry, you are posting in the right thread, but if this is a problem that concerns you the most, I would suggest you to make a new thread/discussion thread. =)

Follow some of the guides listed here--> http://video.google.com/videosearch?q=hackintosh+install

Although they are not written solely for the AMD architecture, those videos (at least some of them) should give you an idea where you have to go. Very easy. Don't hesitate to at least give it a try. =)

i have download 1 to 71 rar and there is no 62 to 65 rar in rev2 why?

[WinLinMac01]

In the following link is a NZB I created for everyone to use to download Zephyroth's new release within their UseNET Client. Way faster than torrent.

http://rapidshare.com/files/98823774/1205276199.nzb.html

Try the NZB I created above, and restart the download process. Won't take long. Includes Part's 1-71, Official Zephyroth ONLY. =) Enjoy!

I have installed Rev. 2 on my computer.
The Windows dual-boot option doesn't work probably because it was meant for XP computers while I have Vista.

So I went ahead, downloaded chain0 and put it in Vista's root directory.
Then I added Mac OS X to the Vista bootloader through \chain0.
I restarted, chose Mac OS X, and it gave a "Chain booting error."

I have tried out both kernels, and neither fix the problem.

My specs:
AMD Athlon X2 3200+
nForce 430 (works)
230GB SATA Seagate Barracuda (works)

[slee202]

I have not tried this and may well have it wrong but.
chain0 precedes efi, I believe you might want to try using the boot0 from the standalone/i386 directory of the install CD.
Please let us know what works.

Thanx
Steve

Can you upload that file?

I have trouble accessing the .iso with macdrive, since it conflicts with the driver that makes Daemon tools work.

Will it work with any PCI audio cards?

[tommy2d]

I cant seem to install on my MSI EX610 notebook which uses an ATI sb600 chipset / ATA+SATA controller. It hangs at waiting for boot device and i have no clue how to add the kext (which seems to be avaible?) to my ISO using linux or windows.

Also i can't seem to install on my old AMD64 3200+ which also uses some ancient Ati Chipset. In this machine I use IDE Devices only since it cant find sata devices but i get the SAM Multimedia error, no matter how i burn it or where i burn it on.

Any help for either one of these cases would be appriciated.

[slee202]

Here is a rar of all the files in /boot from windows accessible side of the 10.5.2 Rev 1 iso. Sorry but at this time that is the best I can do.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=07J1C0BG
Good luck.

Duh, here I am talking about multibooting with Vista and I forgot to mention the easy way.
Go get easybcd from Neo Smart.

I've tried boot0, chain0, boot1h, and boot1u. Nothing works, just gives out partition not found or chain errors.

Setting Leo as primary partition makes a missing OS error.

[zephyroth]

strange ... I don't have these errors...

[WinLinMac01]

Was your installation successful or were there any errors that you noticed throughout verbose mode? Can you post those errors like with a screenshot or something?

hi there,

i canīt use my USB-Mouse and USB-Keyboard (both Logitech) , so im not able to install this release. in 10.5.1. USB Support worked, but my SATA Cotnroller (VIA) wasnīt reconized,
Is there any solution?

both working with the 10.5.1 release, but in 10.5.2 rev1 oder rev2 they donīt ;(

[WinLinMac01]

Did you try applying the same .kext that was used on rev.1 on rev.2? Try that and see what happens. The kext should be on your DVD directory (installation source), don't know the exact name though. =)

i dont know how to apply .kexct files to an installtion dvd, is there any how-to or tool that i can use for ?!
the file you mean could be usbiofamily.kext ;)

[WinLinMac01]

If that is the one, copy that kext file into your desktop on Revision 2, and use Kext Helper to help patch that extension in. If all goes fine, the Utility will ask you to reboot your system and keep your fingers crossed. =) Most likely, in every scenario, installing kexts work for me.

standard:i dont know how to apply .kexct files to an installtion dvd, is there any how-to or tool that i can use for ?!

[standard]

the problem is, i canīt install rev2 neither rev1, cause i only have this USB Keyboard/Mouse combination, and with no keyboard i canīt install mac os ;( is there any possiblity to edit the iso file with the .kext ?

[WinLinMac01]

Yes, you should be able inject this kext before you get to the welcome screen. If not, try replacing the rev.2 usb package with the one included in rev.1 and repatch the DVD (since you said in your first post, that the USB Mouse and Keyboard combo worked with rev.1, right, "...i canīt use my USB-Mouse and USB-Keyboard (both Logitech) , so im not able to install this release. in 10.5.1. USB Support worked...")

[standard]

thatīs my idea, the only problem that i have is, where can i get a the bootsector
for the new "patched" dvd

or i will boot from the original release change the dvd and install from the patched one
if this works for me i will give you feedback

[roisoft]

@standard, if your 10.5.1 works fine, then you only need the 10.5.2 update by eddie, you donīt need a clean install.

@WinLinMac01 , If some people want the support for Sata DVD, why are you saying they need a clean install? itīs not necessary , please think about the answers ok? they only need the new AppleNforceAta.kext not a clean install.

[standard]

@roisoft where can i get this update (i hope its a PPF file for easy patching,
cause of missing VIA driver in 10.5.1, i am not able to install this release, cause my hddīs
areßnt recognized ;(

[WinLinMac01]

I didn't realize about the support I gave for the SATA DVD (should have proofread). Yes, they only need the new AppleNforceATA, by Medevil.
How is going to do the 10.5.2 update when his combo does not work? If thats the case, he should rather stick with the 10.5.1 release, and then upload manually from there using eddie11c's update. =)

[WinLinMac01]

Not exactly, its not a PPF. Instead its a standard installer available at http://osx.kbot.de/comments.php?DiscussionID=300&page=1
for discussion purposes only. Unfortunately, at the time being, the link is broken, and should be repaired soon.

[roisoft]

the update is a pkg and only works if you have a working 10.5.1, but if you want inject a kext into the ISO go (if you have a tiger or leo install) here (http://osx86.wikidot.com/how-to-s) if you are in windows, download transmac open the iso and inject your kext.

edit: you can try enable only USB 1.1 and disable 2.0 or plug your device after install dvd boot

[standard]

ok, thanks for the fast responses, i will try it soon and give you feedback ;)

[WinLinMac01]

as roisoft said although your logitech may be designed for usb 2.0 compliant devices, you can try enable only USB 1.1 and disable 2.0 or plug your device after install dvd boot. that may also work. However, I don't know how this may work in the post-installation. However, worth a try. ;)

standard:ok, thanks for the fast responses, i will try it soon and give you feedback ;)

[CyCLoBoT]

I tried to install the latest version (10.5.2 rev.2) but right at then end I get the following error:

What could be causing this problem?

[roisoft]

Post install is another thing, and @Standard only need fix the IOUSBfamily.kext and AppleViaata.kext, itīs not a great problem.

[cute2008]

Ok guys I really need your help on this one.

I managed to include the kext for my ATA / SATA controller into the DVD using TransMac. Great piece of software BTW. It succesfuly finds my ATA DVD and SATA disk. However, as soon as the installer loads the NTFS driver and detects my NTFS Windows Vista Partiton (which is not active) and echo's it's label, everything hangs. Is there anything i can do to avoid this?

Btw, on my other system, i still get the same error as i did before and i'm sort of giving up on it ever running this release :-(.

Help would be great!

[cybland]

I had a same problem with the new MeDevil's kext. Had to inject the ones from Rev1. In my case the error was caused by my nForce S-ATA RAID not being supported (dev id 00ee) so boot was stuck trying to detect the partition on my RAID array. I've heard that some people had the same issue even with disabled RAID controller. Try booting with -x (safe mode) switch.

It should work. However, I did hear other users comment about the same multimedia error in other releases. Do a search on the forums, and see where you can get. I never encountered this kind of problem.

Should I wait for this PPD Patch and do a fresh install with the new patched rev3 ISO. Or is it possible to fix it after the installation of this rev2 iso?

[NUCLEaR]

Puttabong:NUCLEaR, http://osx86.wikidot.com/known-issues#toc9

Thank you for the answer.

Another problem that I have: because of the MBR being edited as of the single boot, Vista cannot be loaded if you choose Vista at the Darwin bootloader. You have to repair booting using the Vista disk. Any way to make Darwin bootloader work using Mac?

And no, the multi-boot doesn't work.

[pαuℓzurrr.]

I finally got it too boot, I'm now trying to restore from my timemachine backup, but it seems to be hanging at the transfer of the applications folder...

Seems to be a lot of disk activity still, I'll let it be for a couple minutes longer, its 17 gb :p

Edit: it works but just taking longer then I expected, its copying the files to support the applications now...

Edit2: IT'S ALIIVEEE!, it's fully working and i got all my files back which i had before, I'm now using guid for my hard drive :D

[kyrtid]

I had problems booting with Rev 1 so I thought I would try Rev2. The problem is now I cannot even install. While processing FixGUID at the end of the installation I get an assertion failure NSInternalInconsistency in IFInstallPlan.m:301.
The disk I try to install to contains one single partition which I have set to use GUID.

[viiComm]

i don't find part 28. Has anyone got this problem?

[bajanboy]

The install of leopard 10.5.2. rev2 was successful on my system, the only problem I have so far is that I go a security and permissions error on the /Library/StartupItems directory for the RTL8187L wifi driver, once that problem was corrected I am still unable to use the network because the rtl8187.kext or the client software dont work. The workaround was for me to use my wireless D-link g-122 USB stick.

If anyone have any ideas on fixing this it would be appreciated.

D-link g-122 USB stick is a very good adapter. I have that for my Intel system. =)

bajanboy:The install of leopard 10.5.2. rev2 was successful on my system, the only problem I have so far is that I go a security and permissions error on the /Library/StartupItems directory for the RTL8187L wifi driver, once that problem was corrected I am still unable to use the network because the rtl8187.kext or the client software dont work. The workaround was for me to use my wireless D-link g-122 USB stick.

If anyone have any ideas on fixing this it would be appreciated.

kyrtid:I had problems booting with Rev 1 so I thought I would try Rev2. The problem is now I cannot even install. While processing FixGUID at the end of the installation I get an assertion failure NSInternalInconsistency in IFInstallPlan.m:301.
The disk I try to install to contains one single partition which I have set to use GUID.

i had the same problem so what i did was follow the instructions on the wiki about fixing the guid bootloader and problem solved




now all im having problems with is for somereason my energy saver and screensaver wont come up in system preferences

[cute2008]

Use Transmission, quiting often have an error.

[WinLinMac01]

That shouldn't happen. Are you sure you burned the Disc at its lowest speed at 2x (what burning software did you use?) I suggest you use SwiftDisc 2.02 Premium Burning by: Primo Software, 30-day trial to burn your disks. I'm seeing you have a GA_K8NSNXP-939 (Nforce 3 chipset, how do I know, I used to own the 754-socket version of that board, and used to encounter problems quite often, =). I have a Nforce4 K8NXP-SLI board currently. My best option is to burn at lowest speed "or" study the problem more carefully because you may have to tweak your BIOS setting here any there. Do you see any errors when you are in Verbose Mode? Don't press F8 to get to the installation screen, just press enter when your BIOS is at the point when it is booting of the DVD. =)

Finally got my first working install with this version, but it only works if I install without any of the drivers. So default video only and no network for me. I'm new at this so I guess I'll be spending days searching forums and Google trying to figure out how to get my video card and network working but hey, at least I'm up and running! Thanks Zeph!

Damn!!

i am stuck in the 1 minute left again,and when i reboot still waiting for root.


ps. @ zephyroth on your next ppf can you put the asrock uli chipset 0x522910B9 on the sata section of the appleviaata kext,because if you put it at the ata section you can enable ide1 and ide2 and udma but not sata controler.thanks!!!

[david-olivier]

For me it worked only in single boot (only tryed darwin on mbr) and with the nforce 2,3,4,.. third party driver (without the latter "still waiting for root device"). Even if the installation hanged on last minute, it was installed.

I was able to install rev2 on my computer but just like the rev1, there is no sound and no lan.

forcedeth detects the card, assigns the IP but it says no cable plugged, network down.
As for the audio, it's not even detected.

Is there any solution for the "Chain booting error" ... ???

Thanks

[geminas01]

I fixed the EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGBUS) issue -- my RAM was set too fast @ CL2.0, just went back and set it as "auto" and it didn't have any problems then. Installation successful!


However, I got a blank screen when I booted into Leopard (when the video and welcome screen supposed to come up, after the grey loading screen). I tried doing -v -x but that didn't catch any errors since the problem comes up after that....any ideas?

Hi,

I've just installed rev 2 on my SATA drive in the following system: MSI k9N Neo v2, AM2 AMD 64X2-4400, 2 GB, ATA-DVD, ATA-HDD 40GB, SATA-HDD 160 GB., RTL8111/8168B network. Installation went smoothly with 1 minor ATIRadeonX2000.kext tuning to get my Radeon HD2400 Pro working. However, after installation I have several problems:

1. I can boot from my SATA-HDD only if installation DVD is in the DVD-drive. Without it I have blinking cursor. Fixing it with fdisk -e ... for MBR and dd if=./guid/boot1h of=... for GUID doesn't work. I tried both MBR and GUID partitioning with the same negative result.
2. I was able to install system only when ATA-HDD is on. When it's off, I constantly got message "still waiting for boot device..."
3. "Connect as..." button in finder doesn't work at all. Though in 10.5.1 it worked fine

Is there any way to fix these problems?

more detailed configuration of my system is attached below

Thanks, Dmitry

mus1:Already mentioned it in the other Thread:
Finder -> Go -> "Connect to Server..." doesn't work at all, no matter what I type, it always says that the URL would be invalid.
I also cannot connect to smb-shares. When I click on a share it says "Connection failed".
Everything else works fine so far. The NTFS-driver is working fine as well.

I have the same problem,i tried to install Darwin EFI 9.2 or 9.1, it gives to same result, can someone know a solution to fix this?

i have the same videocard, i selected the NVinject 0.21 as well as the Nvidia KExt 94MB during the installation, it's working fine with hardware acc.. plus all the resolutions... I believe that you can install it even after the Leopard Installation. Download Tinkertool in order to see those hidden directories.. then run the packages that you need instead of going back in the Installation menu. good luck.

[timeflux]

Those who have LAN problems with M2N-E boards with nForce 570 chipset should try following kext file:

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=89475&st=0

It's in beta stage and extremely unstable but still a good start.

Also I thouht my system didn't have audio but turned out there is. About my mac doesn't display any audio hardware but I am able to play audio files. Strange, but as long as it works I'm happy.

Thanks zephyroth :)

**update**
I did install leo 10.5.2 v2 again and this time I have my video working 100% with NVinj 256mb .
the one this I'm sure that its not working is the RT2500USBWirelessDriver, I did select it in three different PC plus laptop. when I restart the mac and look under Extensions folder I can't find RT2500USBWirelessDriver kext, I have to install it manually! is there any fix for this issue?

[WinLinMac01]

copy the kext to your dvd and reburn the iso if thats the case, don't forget to patch it correctly

[tommy2d]

Ok i thing i did something wrong while posting. I'll post it again:

Since I have an SB600 chipset I injected the kext that can be found on this forum for this chipset and now it detects both my ATA dvdrom and my SATA disk. However i now can't get past the NTFS partition detecting sequence...

@the rest: Does anybody else suffer from this? I have 2 NTFS partitions: 1 Windows RE OEM rescue partition and a large OS/storage partition. The intaller doesnt give any errors, not even in verbose mode. I can't just remove all of those partitions since it's actually my office notebook :-).

I also tryed installing through an USB IDE controller connected to an old harddisk while having the original one disconnected. Except for the poor performance, the OS crashes when it reaches the welcome wizzard. I get a totally crewed up graphical interface with nothing readable on it an stuttering sound... I thought having an ATI 2400 HD was a good thing since it's included in the *real* I Mac we have on the office...

Can anybody help me with this?

[ka911]

Thank you very much for the info. transmac sound really promising! I never worked with replacing file in Mac DVD before, do they have to be bootable DVD like windows? does transmac modify any of permissions?

I am probably an idiot but....I installed 10.5.2rev1 no problem on my dell 1501,got the iso for rev2 file hash is a match. I deleted my first install and went to load up the new one.When i put the disk in
and boot from cd it starts to load but after it reaches the apple screen(like 40sec) it just hangs like it is trying to boot an install that is already there???? Anyone have an idea??

here what I did it! Download Leo v2 then burn it with Nero 8(speed 4x) reboot my PC, hit Enter to start Leo Installation
After 30 to 40 sec (Do not be alarmed if the initial grey screen takes a couple minutes) you will see the Leo language screen, choose your native language from the list. For me I select English, Click Agree. Then go to Disk Utility then select your HD (for me I used SATA), format it to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and for option I did select MBR. Exit the disk utility, click continue
Select a Hard Drive to install Leopard onto
Click costume then select from the list Kernel 9.2.0, EFI v.8 MBR, extra fonts, (for sound and video, you need to find the right kext to use I can’t till you want you need to select from the list. Then click done
Click install, wait until you will see “Install Successful”
Click Restart or wait for the Mac to automatically restart. After the computer restarts, enjoy the new Welcome Screen

So I have my 10.5.2 Rev 2 running. x1600 kext is still broken after install (1024x768 screen WITH QE/CI). Installed Maclovin's x1600 for 0x71C2 DevID got me 1440x900 resolution (19" WS monitor), but now I don't have QE/CI.

Forcedeth detects my card, and brings it up, but won't get information from DHCP on the Router. Manually configured all the settings gets me internet.

Aside from those, I see no issues. Would like to get my x1600 working though :(

[laxattack]

have you installed the leo graphics update?

btw it wont let me use the activity monitor says permissions are wrong and i have used repair permissions already to try and fix that

[WinLinMac01]

shucks that makes sense. you need to repair permissions. use onyx utility and see where you get.

I have not installed the leo graphics update.

I have not installed the Graphics Update. I didn't realize this was required.

Now, if I install the Gfx update, will I need to patch with Marvin's? Because I don't have the luxary of a second install of OSX to run it from. I'll do some research and see what it's all about, as I haven't used it yet.

I just want to ask if this release has fixed the Time Machine? some people saying that v1 they need to patch it to make TM work! any update one this release?

just interested in knowing

can the rev. 2 work with ati x200+sb450???
i hv try rev.1 which cant work,
it juz cant find my sata harddisk(still waiting for root device forever)

can anyone kindly tell me if it can work or not??

[roisoft]

Your dev ID is supported in rev2 but i donīt know if it works for you.

[laxattack]

i have run the graphics update from apple w/o patching just fine

[madoktor]

Hi - just installed both rev1&2 - with v1 I had problems with my RTL8139C card - only works with CPUS=1 the alternative (orbtz?) driver intermittently freezed. I was hoping rev2 would fix this - but unfortunately the same problem is still present... but in Rev2 the problem with connecting to servers was also present... for both I did use the AppleHDA patcher to get my ALC883 working...

Anyone have any ideas how I can fix the networking problems - the issue does seem a driver issue and how it copes with networking when two (AMD/VIA?) cores are present - using the alternative (orbtz?) driver semi fixes the problem but if you notice ping times - some are minus with two cores, normal when using one core. I read this is a CPU driver issue, it was present on Win32 machines some time back and its related to core timing ... Anyone know if I buy an alternate network card e.g. Intel/RTL 1GB card - whether this issue will be fixed?

Anyway a big thanks to Zeph for the hard work.

[WinLinMac01]

yes it works. However, you need another backup device, i.e. another hard drive or external, etc. thats what I encountered.

Hello, I have recently download "Leopard-10.5.2-AMD-EFI-Rev2.iso" and burned it at 2x. I have a hp dv6748us laptop, you can find the specifications here: http://google3-cnet.com.com/laptops/hp-pavilion-dv6748us-turion/4507-3121_7-32815783.html?tag=specs
When I boot from the dvd, I get the usual apple symbol and the loading, however, after a few minutes I get a little cross over the apple sign and it continues to load but will not launch the installer. When you boot with -v I get a "still waiting for root device" error, which repeats itself every few minutes. Here are some pictures:

[rfuilrez]

Yeah there seems to be a problem with the GUID package. If you enable the installer log (From the installer GUI:: Windows >> Installer Log) you see it fails as it tries to install that package.

Easiest way to fix that, is don't check the GUID Bootloader if thats the partition scheme you wish to use, use the installer log ABOVE the installer progress window. When the install finishes the 30 seconds won't count down.
Utilities >> Terminal
umount -f /Volumes/{Install Partition Name}/
cd /usr/standalone/i386
dd if=./guid/boot1h of=/dev/rdiskXsY bs=512 count=1
dd if=./guid/boot0 of=/dev/diskXsY bs=400 count=1
umount -f /Volumes/{Install Partition Name}/
./standalone -v /dev/rdiskXsY ./boot_v8
Close the terminal, and restart. Should be good to go now. The second umount is necessary, because during the dd process it gets remounted.

10.5.1 and 10.5.2 rev1 both worked me but not rev2, attatched is my problem (freezes after last two lines on picture while trying to boot the dvd)

[effigy]

damn...i ve install rev2 but if i boot this fu**in' sign at boot!

[Common Sense]

rev2 seems to work just fine except for PS2 keyboard. Its working before kexts are loaded and turns off when they have loaded. I see ApplePS2Controller is in the Extensions directory but still it does not work. Will probably require AppleACPIFamily from 10.5.1 to work.

I do not know what is going on with my Leo Sleep Mode! I can't come out of sleep mode. This can be a REAL bummer. I Hope they fix it.

1. Installed OSX on parition2 using MBR single bootloader
2. booted OSX, set bootparition back to Vista with fdisk, booted with Vista DVD and picked repair startup
3. Installed EasyBCD added everything there (i could stop here but well its not so "clean" since ubuntu parition is also runing grub)
4. Booted ubuntu, boot parition to 4, fixed /boot/grub/menu.lst if needed, rewrite bootsector with grub-install and you are done! after this you have tipple system working from same disk and you can remove neogrub from windows parition

System: A64 6000+, Crosshair nforce590 mobo, 2x 500GB sata disk, GF8800ultra (working),ATA DVD rom and SATA DVDRW, X-Fi fatality (not working - wtb drivers?), lan killernic (not working, using onboard lan with http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=73317 and cpu=1), bluetooth working, rest seems to work except linux parition dont want to mount (altho i actualy dont want it to mount, but you know when i tryed i got some error, removed extfs now already tho...).

Issues im having:
X-Fi not working because of drivers, could use onboard soundcard BUT i just cba to plug speakers up and down...
KillerNIC not working, not suprised, what bothers me more is that there isnt any real working drivers for onboard LAN, cpus=1 just dont seems to be real solution + Im still having some funny issues with streaming quicktime that is probably network drivers fault. For example: without CPUS=1 im geting kernel panic after 2-3 sec streaming of quicktime, WITH CPUS=1 my video just stops without kernel panic, so beats me what is real problem specialy because one other issue is also that Marvin Tools detect some cpuid in some quicktime component but for some reason it doesnt get patched... and last one is connecting to samba shares is not working

i tried this, but to no avail.
second unmout did nothing and the las line "./standalone..." does not seem to be correct.
wouldnīt "startuptool" be right?

havnīt tried: http://osx86.wikidot.com/how-to-s#toc5 jet, is similiar to your solution.
but it is a nice trick using the installer log window to avoid 30sec shutdown and thus the need to
reboot from dvd -s again in order to get to the terminal.
under single user mode, the partitions are always unmounted, arenīt they?


rfuilrez:Yeah there seems to be a problem with the GUID package. If you enable the installer log (From the installer GUI:: Windows >> Installer Log) you see it fails as it tries to install that package.

Easiest way to fix that, is don't check the GUID Bootloader if thats the partition scheme you wish to use, use the installer log ABOVE the installer progress window. When the install finishes the 30 seconds won't count down.
Utilities >> Terminal
umount -f /Volumes/{Install Partition Name}/
cd /usr/standalone/i386
dd if=./guid/boot1h of=/dev/rdiskXsY bs=512 count=1
dd if=./guid/boot0 of=/dev/diskXsY bs=400 count=1
umount -f /Volumes/{Install Partition Name}/
./standalone -v /dev/rdiskXsY ./boot_v8
Close the terminal, and restart. Should be good to go now. The second umount is necessary, because during the dd process it gets remounted.

I'm having the same Window's shared folder issues others are having. When I try to connect to a SMB share through finder, it says "can't connect" then i use command K and type smb://<compname/shared> and it says Urls must formated like "smb://" it's like, uh, wtf mate? that's what i typed?!?

Hi there,

My specs :

Proc: AMD Athlon 64 x2 4200+
Southbridge : Nvidia nforce 430
Northbridge : NVIDIAŪ Quadro NVS 210S

I downloaded Zephyroth LEOPARD 10.5.2 rev2 dvd, burn it, and install it.
The installation froze at "about one minute", I rebooted it, and retried the installation. It was good.
I tried to reboot it and got a panic "AppleIntelCpuManagement". I read on forums that I could delete this kext. After that, no more panic, but the boot seems to freeze with "unknown sigsegv code 0".
I tried : cpus=1, -v -x, -v -x -f...
If I try -s I can have the prompt.
I feel like it 's possible to have it running, but I'm stuck and I don't know what to do now.
here are picture of the -v mode (rar file)

thanks in advance for your help.

What bios version do you have? use the last one.
IDE/SATA?
Disable in bios, Serie,paralell,firewire
If you are installing on IDE drive, set the HD=master DVD=slave same ide channel, disable the second.
If you are installing on SATA your HD=first sata channel and your DVD=master first ide channel disable the second.

For those with sleep problems, try this:

Open a Terminal window...

to check which mode is active, type in
pmset -g | grep hibernatemode

0=old style sleep, 3=new (save to disk style sleep)

==============================
to change mode, type in
sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 0 (for old style)
or
sudo pmset -a hibernatemode 3 (for new style)

==============================

Hope this all makes sense!

Here's my thing;

- Installed rev2 over a working rev1... couldn't boot without the install disc.

Tried various things, nothing worked, so I Erased the OSX partition and installed Rev2 fresh. Same issue...

Not sure what's wrong, but i'm not even seeing darwin now.

I tried the recommend fix here (http://osx86.wikidot.com/how-to-s#toc5) but that didn't seem to fix it. I'm using MBR anyhow...

Worked with Rev1, but now I can't seem to get Rev2 to boot without the disc.

Here's my problem. I have M2N4-SLI mobo with AMD 64X2 5200+, 2 GB RAM, Nvidia 7600, etc. All worked and still work perfectly except lan!

In all versions i have tested: 10.4.10, 10.5.1, 10.5.2 rev.1, 10.5.2, rev.2 i have never found a detailed working!! solution for making this lan stuff work in my mobo M2N4-SLI (using forcedeth of course). Any help would be extremely appreciated.

I have even tried to modify the kext; when i tried to insert the device id into the kext i saw that it was already there so there is nothing i can do to fix it. I cannot even buy a cheap pci ethernet card cause all my pci slots(which are only two) in this silly mobo are filled..

Another problem that i found after installing zephyroth's 10.5.2 rev.2 is that when i press restart or shutdown it hangs for about 30-50 seconds (after pressing the " restart or shutdown" button that counts down).. In rev.1 reboot and shutdown was immediate.. Any tips of how i may fix this??

hi guys,
I did a guide (step-by-step how to install Leopard 10.5.2 AMD with pic)
http://www.mediafire.com/?htym3dt824x

[madoktor]

@trovardo

I too am facing this LAN problem - I have a Via mobo with an AMD 64X2 processor. Unfortunately I have not found any solutions to this problem as yet. Using an external PCI card have marginally improved the situation but I am still getting network drops using the latest drivers/kernels. I have used the following cards:

RTL8139C - Worked with CPUS=1, with Apple Stock Driver, worked intermittently using the PCGen driver using both cores
RTL8139D - Did not work - found no way of getting this to work
D-Link 530 TX - Works using the Rhine driver from pinxue, perfectly with one core, intermittently with both cores

I have also noticed that using two cores has slowed my iphone syncing/itunes generally - therefore there is some dual core issue here too. Insanelymac comments on this being some sort of buffering problem within the kernel - which I think is probably true and changing drivers has had minimal improvement. Additionally playing with PCI settings has had little effect apart from delayed transaction setting - which is having an impact on UDP sessions....

I think this is a core problem with AMD CPUs on particular motherboards - nForce and VIA chipsets being affected... apart from using cpus=1 setting, which wastes a whole core, I have not come up with any proven method to improve the situation... maybe others have?

So in conclusion I am still using the CPUS=1 setting to get a stable system - but need to find a solution - otherwise may have to give up and buy apple hardware...

[ziska]

In fact, i just can't boot on the dvd ... so i can't open the terminal (..)

And i think that all AM2NF3 users have the same problem ...

Anyone have an idea ???

[Snow]

Zeph, I reall, really, REALLY suggest you focus on getting the OS as stable as can be and not releasing another revision everytime you fix something.
OSX86 isn't for people who don't like to mod things so having your 10.5.1 or 10.5.2 version is like having the same thing. Sure, in 10.5.2 we have more stuff working, but then again other stuff isn't working anymore where it did with the 10.5.1. I can understand though having a latest version for new peeps.
It's not like we're going to install a whole new OS everytime there's a major update. That's just insane and if that would be the case I would quit using OSX86 imediatly. OSX is known for stability and not having to do reinstalls every month (year). OSX would be just another modded windows OS if this wasn't the case.

So I suggest, smalll fixes or updates. The 10.5.2 update Eddie made a while back was the best thing I've seen since your 10.5.1 release. A lot of users still use the manualy updated 10.5.1 release so pls don't abandon us. By working on the issues and not trying to release a new version everytime we can all relax a bit more (experienced and noobs)

Respect though for even making it possible for us to use the OS. If you said BLEEP it in the first place I would not run this amazing OS. As soon as I saw your 10.5.1 release I thought, now is the time to try Leopard. So I'm not trying to put you down or anything alright? cool.

Take care and keep up the good work.

Hi to all,

two weeks ago i started with installing leopard 10.5.2 rev.1 on my pc. I didn't got it to work. Last week i downloaded the last revision and tried again. Unfortunate without succes! And i don't know why.... If i look at all the configurations placed here on the forum mine must work also. Last night i tried again. I got the message "Installation succesful" (what already was great cause i didn't got that before) but after a reboot i got the following message:

Has anyone had trouble with their sata/dvdrw drives? I tried to burn an iso with two seperate programs (burn & toast 8).

For some reason I cant burn .iso files anymore and have not tested making music, data, etc. dvd/cds. Is this a known issue or is there a fix?

[WinLinMac01]

it works on my system, go into disk utility and see of there is any harddrive detected there. if you can see your hd there, it could be you have a different system file type. You need to spare a partition (very easy) and configure a new MBR/GUID partition.

Have you tried waiting life for 1-3 minutes at least? If that doesn't work, restart the installation one last time and look for any specific errors. If there are none, most likely it can be your DVD, what speed did you burn it at? It should be at the lowest, 2X.

I read earlier in this thread that someone else was having similar issues with mouse/keyboard, and it was suggested that they insert an older usb I/O kext into the boot image. I'm familiar with how to do this via TransMac, so if anyone could supply me with that I/O kext file, I'll give it a shot.

Thanks.

This is becoming rather frustrating, I'm currently downloading rev 2 again from usenet to make sure that I have the correct version(and not rev 1).

If anyone else has anything at all to contribute here, please please please post it.

Thanks

[Puttabong]

hauj0bb, just compare the md5 hash with the official ones, to see which release you actually got :)

[hauj0bb]

61aae34354adc32f2d4b8737410899c4 is the md5 of the iso i have, and I'm not sure how to check the md5 of the files i'm downloading from usenet they're par rar files.

Definitely. However, I'm not sure if they are "suppose" to support 10.4.11 and higher. You know what I mean.

I have two issues which might be across the board for most at least the HDD part. It takes forever transfering files, between hdds, and i cant burn cds/dvds on my sata dvd-dl.

[WinLinMac01]

What type of hard drive is this? IDE or SATA?

I have both Ide and sata.Leopard on sata, and storage is on other 3 drivers. I was attempting to transfer files from one disk to another so i could format it to be osx format instead of ntfs but it would take forever and i would give up. Also why cant I burn dvd/cds on my LITE-ON DVDRW LH-20A1S

[WinLinMac01]

I'm having a pretty good feeling that could be the reason why. I don't really think it is a serious issue to look at since its pretty normal to transfer files from SATA and IDE at such speeds.

[psychonautuk]

Pefect install, well almost...
Single boot EFI8 GUID always fails to install.
Dual Boot with OSX on the 1st and XP on the 2nd partition works but I needed to fix EFI ( in the guides on here)

ECS GF6100 integrated graphics board mobo thing.
AMD Dual core 4200.
Core animation and Quartz not supported, but I think this is down to my mobo as its onboard graphics
NFORCE Ethernet still doesnt work but this is a known issue and I just put a RealteK 8139 in it and it works.

Apart from that in general its solid as a rock.

I do have few issues though.

VLC, crashes when loading, as does parallels and Crossover they just bomb out instantly.
DVDplayer cant find a graphics card that is supported and front row just goes to a black screen when it loads.

I *think* all those are related to my graphics card though. I expect all of these require Quartz etc. Has anyone else had similar problems with this build? Or can give me advice?

Oddly, Quicktime seems able to play movs.

Finally, has the front row patch been applied to this build? I'd read that it looks for the apple remote and if it cant find it, it freezes or somat?

Any help or ideas are appreciated.

Ryan

[roisoft]

Yes youīre right, your problem is the grphics card, you need another one because the onboard is not supported, iīm sorry.

[psychonautuk]

ah cool, no need to apologise, thats life isnt it! That will teach me to stop being so tight fisted!

[WinLinMac01]

However, I heard rumors that graphics is supported in Leo4All, but haven't yet tried it myself, since I don't have onboard graphics. =)
