hi, i have Leopard10.5.7 (iatkos) installed in one partition of one drive (i have 3 sata hdd) and i want to upgrade to Snow Leopard and install on other hdd...i´ve been trying this for almost 4 days with no success. Basically i followed the 2 most common procedures:
OSInstall.mpkg and USB flashdrive methods and nothing but KP's.
Because i don´t have at this moment an 8 gb usb flashdrive i substituted it with other partition on the same target drive of Snow...KP's allover as expected, then i tried using an external hdd as a substitute of the flashdrive...more KP's.
So i'm wondering if your guide is specifically for your board? Is your dsdt specifically for your board?
Don't you think the external hdd should function as a usb flashdrive?
I have an intel board DP965LT (Q8200, 4 gb of ddr2 800 MHZ and a 9600 gt).
Leopard is full functional.
I really would like to know this, if possible, before i buy an 8 gb thumbdrive .
thanks a lot.

well in order to help you, pictures might be very helpful

Hi,

i could follow the instructions from sk1nhd33t till the point "Back on Leopard". The installation of SL went well. So after that, I attached my "new" SL-SATA-harddrive to my MBP (with Leopard on it) with an USB-Adapter to install Chameleon. But everytime i try to install Chameleon, the installation-process is stalling. I think the "Core" is installed correctly but the installer can't write the receipts. I get this protocoll error: I have no idea what's going wrong, because i could write chameleon from my MBP to the thumb drive.

My hardware:

1. MBP 13 (still Leopard on it)
2. PC with G31M-ES2L, E5200, 4GB.....

Hope someone can help.

install it manually instead or google dr. hurt's RC3.pkg and use it together with netkas new PC EFI v10.3.

edit:

here's a very easy to follow guide to manually install Chameleon , just replace PC EFI boot file on step 8.

dowload the binaries here: RC1

thx a lot, i'll try it.

Thanks again. It worked. My Hackintosh is running and updated (10.6.1). Onboard network-card is working. The only negative point is the onboard-graphic-(card). Is there any kext or EFI-String for it?

Hello,
I am trying to get my sound work on my hackintosh.
I have a ES2L board and everything is working except the sound (this board is rev1.1)

I used lifehackers guide(http://lifehacker.com/5360150/instal...cking-required)

Should I have not installed this way?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Why do people keep linking to RC1? RC2 and RC3 have been released. I believe I've been using RC3. Is there something RC1 does better?

netkas stated that rc1 is more compatible to older motherboards, so chances are you're safer with rc1

either of the 3 will work including PC EFI, the reason that i didnt use RC3 in this tutorial is because im having multiple sound assertion (about 10+ of them), boots fine though and audio loads the same way as RC1 but i dont want seeing it when i boot in verbose. using PC EFI 10.3 now BTW and loving it.

im assuming you use a different board?
