Acer Aspire 4530
 

I found this version to be even better than iPC

iDeneb_v1.6_1058_Lite_Edition
- Voodoo 9.5 Kernel
- VoodooPS2Controller (first one)

This is bare minimum needed to load the Mac OSx86

As for the other drivers I have had little luck. I am doing research of the devIDs... I'm guessing everyone on this thread had disappeared. If they reappear I would be happy to share other information.

i tried with the devIDs of the nvidia9100 embedded card by modding the kexts with the help of SaCleoCheaters, maybe i could send it to u by mail if u want.
and as the ethernet and wi-fi never find out nothing just as you. i think you could search the Indian community for info.

HI I'm new in this forum. Just like you I'm still looking for a nice distro for this notebook.
I haven't been lucky with Leo but I managed to install Snow Leo on 4530 using Hazard's 10.6.2 Distro.

Here's some info I can share after countless reinstalls. This combination somehow works for me. Mine is has Turion zm-80 BTW

The usb mouse trick is still needed or else it'll reboot.
Airport works after the 2nd reboot but no light on the button
WebCam Works
Bluetooth Works with light on button
USB works
Card Reader Works
Battery Meter works
Trackpad works but no scroll
No Sound
NVidia doesn't work
Broadcomm Ethernet doesn't work

Here's what I selected
BlackKnight 10.2.0 Kernel
Chameleon 3 RC5 works.
AMD Patch
AtherosFix
ACPIBattery
MACAM
Voodoops2trackpad
ElliottForceLegacyRTC
IOATAFamily_SATA_Fix
+ All Patches except Orange_Icon_Fix and Card_Reader

WLAN Working!
 

Well, I have a Atheros AR5007EG in my acer aspire 4530 (dunno if that's supposed to be there) and I used this guide to make it work!

You don't need all the kexts, just the IO80211 kext
(DON'T FORGET TO PUT IN YOUR DEVICE ID OR ELSE IT WON'T WORK)

EDIT: after reboot it couldn't find any networks; it worked after a couple of restarts though.
