Hi Cheetah
When i try to boot following your instructions with Empire, after boot i get verifying DMI pool data........ Boot from CD/DVD : \with flashing cursor. As though awaiting input but no response to any key stokes. No input appears possible. Any thoughts? Cheers Bruce |

This is a VERY long thread and perhaps I have missed it in the 15 pages I've read but....
How do I safely update to 10.6.2 from 10.6? I managed to install 10.6 ok but my card was in VESA as I have a Radeon 4670. So I tried the beta booter from Netkas but missed that I needed some kext from 10.6.2 so it didnt work. Then updated to 10.6.2 to get kext and I get KP as SleepEnabler isnt compatible. I know the OP won't be happy to hear this suggestion but could the 1st post be updated? Ive seen suggestions that we install R1000.kext for some people and we have new MyHack out now and new PC-EFI so the pack could do with an update. I also see that 10.6.2 has a new SleepEnabler kext and default DSDT. It would be VERY helpful if the guide took us from empty disk to 10.6.2. EDIT: OK reinstalled and then updated to 10.6.2 with correct SleepEnabler and with onboard VGA. Seems OK. But if I try to put my HD4670 in the machine and replace the boot file with the one from Netkas (http://netkas.org/?p=372) and Pfix'd. But the machine always loads part way and then the screen dies but it continues loading. Any ideas? It seems its all related to the ffricking 4670 (and I have a 4870 on way for machine #2 so i need to sort these!) Hopefully then I can just add my 4670 by replacing the "boot" file and repairing permissions! |

Two problem installs on two machines for me.
One got hosed when going to 10.6.2 and when I tried to reinstall it fails to find the HDD. I even reinstalled standard MBR code to it (no change) then wiped it and repartitioned it. Tried with HD4670 in and without. Tried changing SATA connectors. Tried disabling IDE adaptor. I really DONT want GUID as I am multi booting or trying to. I've installed two USB 8gb sticks. One with latest MyHack which has 10.6.2 compatible kexts but it still doesnt see the HDD. Its taking 24 hours to make the USB Sticks too.. that cannot be correct?!??! |

As for your other troubles, the guide does say to use GPT... |
Has anyone gotten Bonjour to work? No matter what I do I can't seem to get it work. I have the revision 1 of this board, and everything works great except Bonjour. Can someone who has gotten it to work, post what they did? Thanks.
Edit: I'm using the 32bit btw. |
