iAtkos v7 doesn't boot
Thanks for the great work...
Installed iAtkos...installation was very smooth. But after that it doesn't boot....it shows a blank screen with a binking cursor. System Hardware is Intel Core 2 Dou 2.2 ghz Intel 945 gcnl motherboard. 160 gb seagate sata hard disk. There is no graphics card...i think it will have in built in it. |
iATKOS V7 works for me
I confirm that iAKTOS V7 works. my reg is: MSI P55-GD80 (great mobo for OC), i5 760 default 2.66GHZ (OC to 4GHZ stable) 4GB DDR3 Dual Channel 1600 MHZ (had to adjust settings in BIOS to get it run at default speed), Nvidia GTX 260, 230 SATA HD, and an LG DVD-RW SATA. in order to get iAKTOS V7 to install and work I had to use AHCI in BIOS for the drives , booted on DVD and used "cpus=1 busratio=20" installation started, partitioned HD to OSX extended journaled and erased it and mad it GUID. and customized installation, this is what I choose: iAKTOS V7, Chameleon V2, /Extra, DSDT, DSMOS, 9.7.0 kernel voodoo, APIC driver, Disabler, OHR, Remove TyMCE, AHCI, Intel SATA/IDE, Voodoo HDA, Realtek R1000, Post Install Actions. for my GTX 260 I choose Natit Enabler, and Nvidia Mac driver installer for GTX 2XX. if you have PS/2 keyboard and/or mouse choose the apple drive.
Add the cpus=1 and busratio=20 to com.boot.apple.plist to avoid typing them at every start up. booted normal, plugged in my flash drive and USB hard drive 300GB and they are both recognized and functional. sound works, internet works, firewire detected but have no device to try it. Iphone detected but iTunes needs to be updated to 8.2 or later. |
iATKOS v7 has worked well for me on an Asus P5B with Intel Core 2 Duo E6400, Asus P5B Premium (Vista Edition) with Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600, MSI K9N v3 with AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ and an old Dell 8400 with a Pentium 4 Prescott.
Not everything has worked out of the box, of course, but booting from a DVD, installing, booting the install and getting a basic setup has worked on all of them. |

The only destro I could successfuly install. I have an MSI P55-GD80 socket1153,8GB 1600 MHZ, i5 750 CPU (OC to 4GHZ, and aGTX260, if anyone has a P55 motherboard you can ask and I will post a walkthrough of installation and bios changes I had to do, I assume this will work with anyP55 mobo. some things do not work thou, like MIC and 7.1 channel, time machines. I was able to update to 10.5.8 through software update, I did a complet update to everything, itunes, quicktime etc. then I used the iAKTOS v7 dvd reinstlled drivers andpatches only, and working perfect. this V7 is a well done job.

Hello!
It's my first post, so hello to everybody. I have one problem which bothers me for a long time. I installed iPhone sdk with xcode included, because i'd like to write some mobile apps. The problem is, that i can't open library window in the interface builder. Reinstalling xcode or complete MacOs didn't help. On my macbook i can normally build UI, but on my hackintosh (which is my desktop computer) i can't. The xcode from original Leopard dvd, without iphone sdk also doesn't work. I think that iAtkos v2 is the one which doesn't allow me to use xcode propperly, because if i install 10.5.2 (kalyway) it works ok, but iPhone sdk requires at least 10.5.7. Please help me. Thanks, bye |
I have tried to create a virtual machine using iAtkos v7 with VMware but everytime I try and boot from the ISO image I get the following error
System config file '/com.apple.Boot.Slist' not found Also in the risk of sounding stupid what is a MD5 Checksum and how do you do one ? |
md5sum
An MD5Sum is a digital "fingerprint" that identifies a file. If you're download was no good then the hash wouldn't match. Most OS have MD5 check methods built in except windows. There is a concise walkthrough on the ubuntu.com page. Just search MD5. If you need a Windows based check, search for MD5Sum. Top result should be a link to Nullriver Software. There is a free simple checksum at that link.
Even if your check is good, you could still have a bad burn. I had this with my first install attempt and ended up being my burner. Even burning at the lowest speed resulted in errors. Assume there was something wrong with the calibration of the drive, but long story short, burn finished good, install failed, new drive, new burn, good install. Sorry I can't help you with you're VMWare problem. |
