Yes! thats the way it is. i recommend Leopard-10.5.2-AMD-EFI.iso (worked for me)
you can find the .iso on interenet (you know where)

here is a nice .pdf guide

i hope this helps

Whilst great at the time, I wouldn't use Zeph's distro now (the one riangeli suggested ^). I recommend you use LawlessPPC or Leo4All for AMD since they have much better driver support and fewer bugs.

@nfoav8or: thank you! that did the trick!

now i have a old fujitsu siemens amilo a 1630 too, that i thought i might try it has the following specs:

CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3400+
AUDIO: Realtek AC97 - ALC655
CHIPSET: SIS 755 + SIS SB 963L
GRAPHICS: ATI MOBILITY RADEON 9700
ETHERNET: SiS 900 Fast Ethernet
WIRELESS:
Broadcom Wireless LAN 802.11b / 802.11g or
Gemtek WMIR-103G (RaLink) Wireless LAN 802.11b / 802.11

Will i have any luck getting this rig up and running leo? In that case, should i use leo4all?

Random question about a subject I have not looked into at all.

Is it possible to run BootCamp on the Leo4All DVD Hackintosh version of Leopard? :O

@SHS; Hacks don't require Boot Camp as they already have the capacity to boot Windows or *nix natively :)

Can anyone please help me

before you do this start the boot again except type -v in to see what the codes are actually saying when it hangs for the time.

but next time you install it, install the ALC 888 sound card drivers, install zeph's universal nvidia installer (link extracted for reason below... PM for link) and also install the Nvinject 0.2.1 drivers which can be found here (http://nvinject.free.fr/files/Latest_NVinject.0.2.1.zip) that is what i would do to start with anyway, i dont know what drivers you would need for your motherboard, you will have to look around to find out :) thats all i can help you with at the moment

Good way to start Aydinz :)

@ kisho - since you've started another topic we'll continue this there. (I'll even point to it from here so others can follow)

I'll refer back to this post for the videos drivers that Aydinz has pointed out but I'll go a little deeper into it.

hello people :D

Well I've tried searching google and the forums of Infinite Mac etc but I have a few questions.

my computer: Hewlett-Packard HP Compaq nx6325 (EY345EA#ABU)

CPU: AMD mobile Sempron 3400+ (1.8GHz :p)
Graphics card: CPU-Z says ATI radeon Xpress 200 but i'm sure it's a 1150?
Hard drive: Fujitsu MHV2060BH PL ATA device
Motherboard: Hewlett-Packard 30B0 KBC Version 40.15
Audio: ADI SoundMAX HD
Bios: F.02
SSE3
I tried installing Leopard with a friends kalyway 10.5.2, It went well but with 7 minutes it continuely fails it just freezes at the the same time left each installation. Does anybody no why? and if there is a solution?
I heard that it may be because I need an an ethernet plugged in but that doesn't work but my Broadcom wifi does.

I will try to install Zephyroth's distro but which one should i use? there seems to be a rev 1 and rev 2 what's the difference ?

thanks guys.


I just managed to install tiger using the JaS distro, is there a way here I can keep all my driver, etc for. Leopard?
