for all of you with an HP G60t who can't get anything to work or who get the spinny circle, install osx86 10.5.6 with:
-9.5.0 Voodoo kernel
-seatbelt patch (for voodoo)
-pc efi 9
-realtek r1000 (for ethernet)
-AR5007EG wireless (for wifi card, only sometimes works)
-rev macbook pro smbios (make sure not to click ones with specific speeds, they will cause kernel panics)

However, i have Geforce 9200 M GS with 256MB of ram. Whenever i don't check any options for graphics card, setup completes and works, except when i move windows it's weird, and i dont have quartz extreme or anything else (i cant even open fricken photobooth). If i try NvInject 256 or Natit, screen is black at startup any suggestions on what to do with graphics card?

Field Note #1 @redon 2009-05-15

try the 9.2.0 kernel w/o the seatbelt patch and the other bootloader and graphics update. everything else should be left the same.
