Get a retail DVD and read my tutorial a few pages earlier. Good luck!

PS I should start killing people for using shitty distros on such a compatible hardware :]

EDIT

Eventually having trialled and errored for a very long time, i now have a very almost working hackbook. minus perfect sound (only a small clicking noise) webcam is upsidedown, and now sleep.

in my efforts to try and create a dual booter, ive left 100gb free as fat32 so i can figure out how to install windows later.

list of how i did it
boot with iboot
insert mac osx 10.6.3 and boot with -x
install
install chameleon
run kext (dont input password)
update to 10.6.4
put S/L/E and E/E from Man_Of_the_Oak's 'backup file'
i changed dsdt.aml to DSDT.aml just to be safe not that it might make a difference
add IO80211family kext
add nullcpumanagment kext
restart
update to 10.6.5 replacing with fakesmc from flip360 into S/L/E and reinserting nullcpu and apple hda from MOTO
kext utility and repair permissions
restart, same thing with 10.6.6


so i have a working hackbook, and i have a spare 100gb partition in fat32! fun fun
but i want that to be windows so if anyone can give me a hand? I want to install windows 7 into that partition, then make mac the default boot partition, so i am able to use the bootloader in chameleon to access windows 7 if i so please. so how do i change the active partition when ive installed windows? should i have done it the ther way round and install windows first?

although ive managed to get this far through trial and error now that ive got it working i would prefer some expertice on the matter of partitions and installing windows!

Sleep solution anyone?
web cam solution anyone?


Kind regards

After installing Snow Leopard, can I directly update to 10.6.4?

Heya All,

I've been running 10.6.2 on my Asus K60IN since October of 2009. Back then we had the retail disc and a series of kext's to get everything running. I was just wondering if I can update directly from 10.6.2 to 10.6.6 without many issues. From what I've read, all I really need to do is backup my AppleHDA kext and reinstall it after the update. Lastly, should I download the update from the update manager in OSX?

Cheers

Ryan

Okay, updated, restarted and it failed to boot.

1. First error message was the sound issue, no worries, booted into safe mode and installed appleHDA.kext

2. Still doesn't boot. Looked at it again with -v and it looks like it hangs just after NVEnabler runs. Boot into single user mode, and remove NVEnabler 64.kext from S/L/E

3. System now boots to desktop, but only 1024x768 resolution. If I change GraphicsEnabler to yes in com.apple.boot.plist, system still hangs.

4. Tried man_of_the_oak's extra's and extensions...boot screen is correct 1366x768 but hangs at: "acpi_smc_platformplugin::registerlpcdriver-failed to locate smc driver"

No idea what to try now....any ideas?

anyone got a solution for enabling sleep in 10.6.6??
