"SleepEnabler.kext" is not even on mine, and I don't think that it
was installed on mine, but it may cause problems, and on another
forum, someone with an 1000HE had problems getting sleep to
work with "SleepEnabler.kext" installed.

If its causing problems try removing it.

Hi Will1384,

Your guide works like a charm thank you. It is pretty straight forward than some other methods I had tried before.
The temperatures for CPU were pretty high, hence the fan noise. To fix that, I also used NullCPUPowerManagement.kext as well. But that stuffed up deep sleep so I had to use the sleepenabler.kext too. They seemed to complement each other just fine. At some stage I chucked in the Voodoopowermini.kext but that spoiled the harmony a bit so I gave that a miss.
Just a heads up for everyone.. If you do a memory upgrade make sure it's 100% compatible, I learned the hard way. Took me 2 weeks and numerous reboots due to various KP which stopped after reverting back to original RAM yesterday?!. A working RAM doesn't mean compatible! I found the original 1GB is just fine for everyday use anyways. Thanks again...

clearest guide I've seen for the 1000HE. Thank you. 10.6.1 appears to run much quicker than the base 10.6 SL. Having a bootable backup AND the tweaked install USB are critical because mistakes happen.
I had difficulty with 10.6.4 - followed your guide using the newest Netbookinstaller. The result was booting through almost to the desktop. Freezes right at the desktop before the Dock appears. I did not update DSDT file. I only updated kext using Kext Helper (the updater from /Extra didn't work for me either)

I have a 10.6.1 with working ethernet, sound, bluetooth. Works great. Maybe I should just be happy, but if you have a suggestion to get to 10.6.4, I'd appreciate it.

cheers

(1) Don't use "Kext Helper" as its most likely installing KEXT into
"/System/Library/Extensions/" and that's not were you want then,
ONLY add and remove from "/Extra/GeneralExtensions" and then
run "UpdateExtra"

(2) The DSDT that Netbookinstaller installs is for another netbook,
so you need to replace it, ether with one you made, or from someone
else who made one for the 1000HE


"UpdateExtra" Looks at the files in "/Extra/GeneralExtensions" and
finds all the "dependencies" of the files in "/Extra/GeneralExtensions",
and then makes a "Extensions.mkext" containing both the files
from "/Extra/GeneralExtensions" and the "dependencies", the
"dependencies" are KEXTs from "/System/Library/Extensions/"
that are needed by KEXTs in "/Extra/GeneralExtensions"

10.6.4 Cannot get to command line

Help! Flawless install on my 1000HE ... until I tried the section on updating to 10.6.4.

I ran the updated netbook installer and the 10.6.4 update (before restarting) - no problem.

On restart, the Tab key does not get me to the Command Line but boots past onto a grey screen with a mac laptop icon and and endlessly spinning circle below.

Is there any other way to get to the Command Line for the "recovery=y" trick??

Thanks.

in your case

You still can enter the boot menu still by pressing a modifier key (shift, cmd, alt, or F8).

So I followed this guide quite closely, and I made it to 10.6.4 just fine. Everything is up and running, except wifi. It occasionally finds networks, but when I enter my password (and before you ask, yes it's the right password, I'm positive) it briefly tries to connect, then says, "Connection timeout." The network has WPA security. I'm about to throw all my hard work against the wall.

My 1000HE has the Atheros 9280, as indicated by About This Mac..., it's enabled in BIOS, I've tried going into BIOS and disabling/enabling it, and I've turned off Quick Boot. I used your DSDT table with your com.apple.Boot.plist and everything on the computer is working flawlessly, including Ethernet, sound and all. (Though I didn't install Bluetooth because I never use it).

Please, somebody help me. I've done the installation twice already and I just don't know what to do. Wireless worked in both Windows XP and Ubuntu. I got the hard part done! I upgraded to 10.6.4 with no kernel panics! Why won't my wifi work with the one card it's supposed to work with?!

I had problems also, mine would connect, and even get on the net, but
just suddenly drop connection at random times, BTW I was never able to
fix that, I ended up swapping out wireless cards - huge pain in the butt -
but I had the "RaLink RT2860" not the "Atheros 9280", I do kinda think I
remember a modified KEXT for the "Atheros 9280" but am not sure were
it is, I will have to search for it, and I only faintly remember it, or think I
remember it, I will look this afternoon for you to see if I can find it,
no guarantees

OK, so I may have uncovered a bit of the problem, it turns out that my Airport is assigned to en0 and Ethernet is en1, which is backwards as far as I can tell. On bootup I kept getting something like:

Airport: Link down on en0

I'm trying to reassign ethernet to en0 and airport to en1, but I'm having some issues. Any input anyone?
