Zephyroth Leopard AMD 10.5.2 Rev.2 Issue Discussion - Page 11

Hi,

I've just installed rev 2 on my SATA drive in the following system: MSI k9N Neo v2, AM2 AMD 64X2-4400, 2 GB, ATA-DVD, ATA-HDD 40GB, SATA-HDD 160 GB., RTL8111/8168B network. Installation went smoothly with 1 minor ATIRadeonX2000.kext tuning to get my Radeon HD2400 Pro working. However, after installation I have several problems:

1. I can boot from my SATA-HDD only if installation DVD is in the DVD-drive. Without it I have blinking cursor. Fixing it with fdisk -e ... for MBR and dd if=./guid/boot1h of=... for GUID doesn't work. I tried both MBR and GUID partitioning with the same negative result.
2. I was able to install system only when ATA-HDD is on. When it's off, I constantly got message "still waiting for boot device..."
3. "Connect as..." button in finder doesn't work at all. Though in 10.5.1 it worked fine

Is there any way to fix these problems?

more detailed configuration of my system is attached below

Thanks, Dmitry

[cite] mus1:[/cite]Already mentioned it in the other Thread:
Finder -> Go -> "Connect to Server..." doesn't work at all, no matter what I type, it always says that the URL would be invalid.
I also cannot connect to smb-shares. When I click on a share it says "Connection failed".
Everything else works fine so far. The NTFS-driver is working fine as well.

I have the same problem,i tried to install Darwin EFI 9.2 or 9.1, it gives to same result, can someone know a solution to fix this?

hi to all,
the 10.5.2 ver. 2 very nice build! BUT I'm having a small problem. I have XFX GeForce 7300GS 512MB (256MB onbord) working with Leo-only_NVinject_0.1.3 patch, is there any patch in ver2 to make this video card work? I have try the NV patch but it did not work for me! and the RT2500USBWirelessDriver it does support all versions? because I have Linksys USB WUSB54GS and its v4 but I can't see it when I select it in my costum installation.

i have the same videocard, i selected the NVinject 0.21 as well as the Nvidia KExt 94MB during the installation, it's working fine with hardware acc.. plus all the resolutions... I believe that you can install it even after the Leopard Installation. Download Tinkertool in order to see those hidden directories.. then run the packages that you need instead of going back in the Installation menu. good luck.

Those who have LAN problems with M2N-E boards with nForce 570 chipset should try following kext file:

http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=89475&st=0

It's in beta stage and extremely unstable but still a good start.

Also I thouht my system didn't have audio but turned out there is. About my mac doesn't display any audio hardware but I am able to play audio files. Strange, but as long as it works I'm happy.

Thanks zephyroth

**update**
I did install leo 10.5.2 v2 again and this time I have my video working 100% with NVinj 256mb .
the one this I'm sure that its not working is the RT2500USBWirelessDriver, I did select it in three different PC plus laptop. when I restart the mac and look under Extensions folder I can't find RT2500USBWirelessDriver kext, I have to install it manually! is there any fix for this issue?

copy the kext to your dvd and reburn the iso if thats the case, don't forget to patch it correctly

Is there any software I can use to do this in Mac or windows? or even tutorial on how-to add kexts & repair permissions. the problem I know I'm going to face is the permissions for this kext files

transmac is what I know should work, there were a couples I can't recall at the moment that are floating around in this forum.
