Hi Zeph and testers,

any chance that AC'97 digital output will work with Rev.2, mine is ALC850 chipset. If not, can this be considered for a later update please.

roisoft: or anyone with ideas

I used all three mac/mbr/guid many tries on install lol actually kind of fun trying all these installs. checked and unchecked Nvidia drviers, same result. I havent got far enough to be able in install kext so your guess is better than mine.

Of course like any other member, would be pleased to test Rev2 also

@ 1207FX

Try this (if you want, of course) copy the file to pendrive formated in FAT labeled "EFI"

boot into install dvd and open disk utility and format the HD and choice the GUID scheme, close the disk utility, plug the pendrive, open a terminal and type this:

diskutil list

take note of hd number (diskX, X=device number) (e.g. if it disk1 - then X = 1 (X will be used later)

cd /volumes/efi/pc_efi_v80

umount -f /dev/diskXsY (X=hd Y=partition)

./startupfiletool /dev/rdiskXsY ./boot_v8

dd if=./guid/boot1h of=/dev/rdiskXsY bs=512 count=1

dd if=./guid/boot0 of=/dev/diskX bs=400 count=1

your guid drive should be ready for booting now, close the terminal and follow with the install.

can't wait for revision 2. i still haven't gotten the first one to work on my amd laptop sadly, i been trying day in and day out to get it to work but i constantly have problems when adding the IONetworkingFamily.kext(don't think this is the problem) and the AppleACPIPlatform.kext(this one gives me the problem). so as for now i'm trying to get the JaS release of 10.4.8 to work and i am downloading the tubgirl 10.4.9 release to work. i have had no luck with any AMD release yet. and my computer is only 2 months old. sad huh. whatever though.

Hey zeph,
I'm looking forward to Rev. 2 and I have a little question about it:
I've got a kernel panic, something like this: Panic (cpu 0 caller 0x0036DAC7):"Process 1 exec of /sbin/launchd failed, errno 88\n"@/volumes/disk1s2/leo_xnu-1228/bsd/kern/kern_exec.c:2884
(see here: http://osx.kbot.de/comments.php?DiscussionID=19&page=2#Item_46)
May it work with Rev 2?
Thanks a lot for this wonderful work and this forum. I like you, guys ;-)

Hey Skyper. I don't know really, what your problem is, but try following:
- plug the DVD-Rom and the HDD about one cable into the IDE or SATA port
- set the HDD to Master (by setting the jumper on your HDD) and the DVD-Rom to Slave (by setting the jumper in the middle section of the pins)

Now check in your Bios, if the devices can be detected to Master and Slave and try again. I had a similiar problem and it worked with this way. Check this thread out:
