LawlessPPC-Leo-10.5.4-Phenom&AMD

This image is a remixed Zephyroth 10.5.2 rev2 release.
If this DVD does not boot on your system then its not meant to be installed on your system!!!

Changes to Zephyroth release are as follows.

*** Chameleon bootloader Ver 1.0.11 (used for DVD booting & installed on drive by default.)
*** Modbin 9.4.0 Kernel SSE3 (installed by default)
*** Alc888 (audio) 3 port, 6 ports + Digital (Fixed)
*** NTFS-3G latest version (solves slow shutdowns)
*** ATI SB600 Issue (solves still waiting for root device when trying to install)
*** ATI HD-3650 Support (QE/CI Enabled) No white menus!!!)

The reason for installing chameleon and kernel automatically is because too many people are posting in forums about drives not booting after install (not marked as active) chameleon solves theses problem. The kernel on auto is because I can confirm this works with Phenom and is the latest it also comes with the correct system.kext which seems to be a common problem

CPU Support
In theory this should work on all AMD SSE3 systems Phenom, Athlon X2 etc

If after install you can not boot from hardrive try -v -f switches at the Chameleon (Darwin) Bootlader screen.
If you get strange graphics on boot you should boot in safe mode (-x switch at Bootloader screen) then install best drivers from within the OS for your graphics chips/card.

All thanks should be given to all those that have done the real work before I got my hands on it.

Zephyroth (For fine releases for AMD)
Zef (for producing Chameleon Bootloader) helping and his patience)
Kabl (For CPU Support In Chameleon)
Shadow3K (the reason I was able to install OSX on phenom in the first place)

Also the authors of all the drivers in this release with out them it just wouldnt be as much fun or possible.


Now the warning. If your machine blows up, you loose all drive data, your CPU melts or your wife leaves you!!!!!
I am not responsible. All risks on installation are taken by you and you are responsible for installing it (you made that choice).

P.S. for dual boot systems (single drive) I would recommend installing OSX first then your other choice it should work the other way round but this would be the safest method.

Please post your results at http://www.infinitemac.com/discussions/ in the right thread
