Well after much fiddling, I gave up, copied all my documents and decided to start fresh.

I first tried the Boot CD with a retail 10.6.3 disc, this failed to boot, and ended with a KP. I Believe it had to do with the graphics enabler, though I can't be sure. Safe mode did the same thing.

I then decided to try the retail disc with my iBoot disc, and it does indeed load and install. Graphics appear to be working alright, although there is some issues with QE/CI as when dropping a widget on the dashboard it would stutter and give artifacts every now and then. Webcam also did not work, nor did WIFI, but I am running a different card, and didn't expect it anyways.

So after I got it to boot, I downloaded the 10.6.6 combo update, and installed it, rebooted, and am stuck where I was before. I'm thinking I should have installed the FakeSMC from 10.5.6 after installing the update but before restarting. I'll try that another night though.

Anyone have any ideas on how to boot the 10.6.3 retail disc without iBoot, or how to use iBoot but re-enable stuff like the webcam? I have an original 10.6 disc as well, but if I remember correctly, I had to disable GraphicsEnabler to get that to boot as well.

Any ideas?

Ryan

Webcam used to work, albeit upside down before....I think I'm about the only person who enjoyed it being upside down lol!

Thought about it more last night, and read through more, and I think I'm going to try iBoot to 10.6.3, then combo update to 10.6.6, before restarting, install the new fakesmc and man_of_the_oaks extra's and see what happens!

Hi everybody!

Links to many files are out of date. If possible, please give new links to the SL version 10.6.5 or 10.6.6.
