WHOOOOO!!!!!!! my perseverance paid off!


After trying a few other things out i finally got 10.5.5 booted in normal mode.. no audio/network/acc gfx as yet as I did things a little differently this time.

I did a fresh install of lawless 10.5.4 distro with nforce chipset driver only. installed voodoo. backed up, installed 10.5.5 update from a modifed package. did not work from beginning. removed cpupowermanagement and all ATI/ Geforce/NVDA kexts, added appledecrypt, applesmbiosefi and disabler and the damn thing decided to work.

nForceLAN 0.62.9 kernel panics after kext install. rebooted into single-user, removed kext, fixed permissions etc and rebooted.

extracted forcedeth.kext from install with pacifist and installed and network now running.

audio working.

Backing up ready to concentrate on getting accelerated graphics on my 9500GT's
