@ blue_brian - you don't need to do fresh installs to get these from the DVD. get a copy of MainMenu and after you place it in the applications folder, run it and from the drop-down menu, select "Finder"->"Show Invisibles" then open your DVD and go to /System/Installation/Packages/ to find the right install packages for you. This is good if you like a certain distro but it doesn't include certain files, because then you can load a different distro and get the files you need.
Hope this helps. P.S. I use PCWiz's "OSx86 Tools Utility" and select "view PCI Device/Vendor ID"... when looking at it, for example, my ethernet is: Code:
Bridge [0680]: nVidia Corporation MCP61 Ethernet [10de:03ef]  |

Installation Guide for iDeneb 10.5.5 on GA-P35-DS4???
Could someone post the required patches, and a complete step-by-step installation guide for Gigabyte GA-P35-DS4 Motherboard.
The complete configuration would be GA-P35-DS4 Mobo, E7200 C2D, 2GB Transcend RAM, Sony 16x DVD-RW (IDE), 320GB of HDD space free, all for Leopard (I dunno how to partition, so that too please). |

But the OSx86 Utility is cool (I'm behind on the non-terminal ways to get this info). The ethernet controller is listed as an nVidia Corp CK804 Ethernet Controller [10de:0057] (rev f3). So not on the supported list for that driver I linked to. Boo. So ... barring any other ideas, what's the most compatible ethernet PCI 2.2 or PCIe card I can get (all USB ports in use)? Most of what I read here is about on-board ethernet so I thought I'd just ask. |

you need to try the v3 of Leo4All. I've seen this chipset talked about before and thats the distro used. see this thread over at InsanelyMac: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.p...opic=24047&hl=
They refer to Tiger in the beginning but it has been found to work with Leopard as well. Last edited by nfoav8or; 10-24-2008 at 08:57 PM. |

Hallo all!

I followed the steps posted here: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=130955 And after that it boots up. But after another reboot, I get again "still waiting...".The workaround is to boot every time with -f. Did I something wrong? The next problem is my graphic card. There seems to be no kext in leo4all. So I can only view 1024x768. Is there anywhere a kext this card (see above), so that I can use 1280x1024? I tried to activate german language. Many things are now in german. But not all, e.g. the finder. Is not the complete language installed? And last, I have now 10.5.2. How can I update to 10.5.5? Thanks, elinmerl Last edited by elinmerl; 10-28-2008 at 03:45 PM. |

boot with "-f -s" then when it starts in single user mode type:
Code:
/sbin/fsck -fy /sbin/mount -uw / chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/ chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/ rm -Rf /System/Library/Extensions.mkext reboot I have seen AGP graphics working out there, but I'll have to do some more digging to remember where I can get the files from for you. |
