Field Note #1 @lanceomni 2010-01-18

Welcome to InfiniteMac!

A large txt file.. You may want to slim that down to the basics as listed below and actually post it in your thread. Placing your motherboard's chipsets or at the least the model number of the motherboard in your title may help you get some more responses.

Keep in mind that this is a "project" and not a cheap Mac alternative. It requires an interest in learning how OSX works and being willing to experiment.

Please provide us with some specifications about your system (CPU, Motherboard, Graphics & Model Number if applicable). Adding more specific information allows us to respond quickly with more precise answers. Chipset, LAN, Audio & If your Graphics are integrated or not, are excellent additions.

You can also place this information in your "Signature". It will then appear on every post you make. How to edit your signature: OSx86 Core & 10.X →
