Well, its that time again, Zephyroth is UPLOADING his LATEST RELEASE at this very moment. He has preferred NewsGroups as the primary download method. The torrents will start appearing later in the coming hours. If you are experiencing any download problems, concerns that you would like to address, feel free to add them in this discussion. Discuss as you download is the best way to put it. =) Let's all thank Zephyroth again for a wonderful release, and we all can't wait to play with this UPDATE!
NOTE: Zephyroth has preferred the same NewsGroup (alt.binaries.mac.cd-images) I will update periodically as the files come through. Enjoy! In the following link is a NZB I created for everyone to use to download Zephyroth's new release within their UseNET Client. Way faster than torrent. http://rapidshare.com/files/98823774/1205276199.nzb.html Enjoy! UPDATED MESSAGE FROM ZEPHYROTH- "It's strange ... My connection droped down, I was uploading with Linux all night but this morning upload stopped. So I rebooted in Leopard but can't upload correctly with it. Thus I'm just back in Linux." =) Supposedly, all of the files have been uploaded, but can't locate all of them. What's new : 1 - New options ----> Single Boot & Dual Boot Under Single Boot ---> Darwin MBR EFI v8 ---> Darwin GUID EFI v8 (fixed) Under Dual Boot ---> Windows-Bootloader Used to dual boot with an existing installation of Windows ON THE SAME DISK than the one on which you plan to install Leopard and by using the Windows Bootloader (chain0 method) ----> FileSystems ---> Support for NTFS (MacFUSE & NTFS-3G) ---> Support for ZFS (Beta) ---> Support for Ext2-Ext3 2 - New ToH kernel 9.2.0 (reboot & shutdown fix for some systems). 3 - Extensions folder added (More easy to modify the ISO). 4 - Support : Audio: ---> CMI8738PCIAudio Video cards : ---> ATI X2300. Chipsets: ---> New AppleNForceATA (29 Feb 2008) ---> Support for Sata DVD ok ! ---> AppleVIAATA (dev-id 0x05911106 , 0x522910B9 & 0x528910B9 added) Ethernet/WiFi: ---> PCGenUli526xEthernet ---> RTL8187L Various fix: ---> IONetworking family to fix error35 (was not included in 10.5.2 because I don't have this error) ---> AppleSMBIOS-27 (Revison 3 - Updated 18/02/2008 - Fix CS3) 5 - X11 related packages removed. 6 - New Utilities ----> KextHelper ----> IORegistryExplorer 7 - The following packages are fixed (they were not correctly installed) ----> RadeonHD-38x0 ----> RadeonHD-Triakis ----> ATI-X19x0 ----> ATI-X1600 ----> Broadcom ----> NVidia-Kexts (cpuid.txt fixed & dev-id 0x029210de added) ----> NVinjectGO & NVinjectGO-512 (Permissions were wrong) ----> AppleVIAATA ----> RT2500USBWirelessDriver ----> SiliconImage3132 8 - MacOSX Update 10.5.2 has been included in original packages. ---> Size of MacOSXUpd10.5.2.pkg is now 20 Mo instead of 344 Mo ---> 110 Mo have been freed on DVD (Now there are 317 Mo to add some third party applications, fixes ...) ---> No more thread crash during installation. No more error message related to receipts. Install errors log is almost completely clean. 9 - DVD has been updated. The following folders have been updated : - /usr/bin - /usr/sbin - /usr/libexec - /bin - /sbin - /Applications/Utilities - /System/Library/Components - /System/Library/CoreServices - /System/Library/Frameworks - /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks - /System/Library/SystemConfiguration 10 - Permissions on Extensions folder (on DVD) have been fixed Visit MAC.KBOT.DE for more added information.

can anyone tell me what NewsGroup is? Can you also tell me where to download the 10.5.2 Revision 2.
Thanks |
I wander if he had made some changes to the rar files that had already been uploaded and was just trying to update them.
|
@kisho, sure the NewsGroup is alt.binaries.mac.cd-images
Follow the procedures below- PC Users: (I prefer NewsRover, a NewsGroup /UseNET Client) 1 - Download one program called GrabIt at "http://www.shemes.com" 2 - Go to "http://astinews.de/xtest" and put your e-mail there to receive an server username and pass to connect to usenet (it is a free account but will do the job) 3 - Check your e-mail and take note of your Reader, Username and Password that you received from astinews 4 - Install GrabIt and use the infos from astinews to start usenet 5 - Inside GrabIt, go to GrabIt Usenet Search and search for "alt.binaries.mac.cd-images" and add it to your list... 6 - After that, still in GrabIt go to Articles and at the end of the list you'll see the files to download... just right click them and "Grab Selected Articles" Mac Users: (Use Unison- a NewsGroup / UseNET Client) 1. Download Unison (http://www.panic.com/unison/) 2. Go to "http://astinews.de/xtest" and sign up for a Free Account 3. Check your E-Mail 4. Install Unison and enter the Login information that you received to your E-Mail by Astinews 5. Search for the Newsgroup "alt.binaries.mac.cd-images" and add it 6. Search for the files by zephyroth and start downloading :) Hope this helps out. |
WinLinMac01: just incase the new rev doesn't fix or improve Lan freeze issues do you think you can point me in the right direction to get a wireless option working? I have a D-Link DWL-G520 but couldn't get 10.5.2 to recognize it.
|
@dred, is this a RT2500 chipset? If it is, then Zephyroth said he included a fix for those wireless devices. Most wireless is intended to be supported now by the updated release according to my understanding. I posted in the first comment, the fixes that are included in this release. Visit mac.kbot.de for updated information (if there is any)
|
I think it is Atheros
|
@dred, totally different chipset, I would recommend you to convince Zephyroth to include this in his next PPF. If you find any working kexts, provide them to him.
found a couple of resources that may help you: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-435094.html http://www.insanelymac.com/lofiversion/index.php/t33089.html http://www.insanelymac.com/lofiversion/index.php/t8829-150.html I don't know what the exact model of your Atheros chipset, but the resources I provided above may give you an idea. Working kexts are there as well including a configuration guide, etc. Worth checking out. |
okay, thanks
|
@dred, check my edit in the previous comment, found a few resources that may help you.
|
will try installation again using the provided pages. Thanks

21 more rar files to download
i can't wait |
Hi, I'm a rev 1 user at the moment. :-) Works wonderful!
I just have a question, we who are using rev 1 - can we just copy over the new kexts that we use, like the nvidia kexts ? Don't want to reinstall but still want the updates ;> |
rar 52 & 54 are incomplete????
|
Can somebody tell me who is Hussein Abdulali? Is this Zephyroth, or is this another user that is trying to mess everything up? I see zephyroth's name uploaded 20 files, 1007.53 MB, whereas the other user took zephyroth's place and uploaded files 21-58, 1.86 GB uploaded. Clarification would be helpful. Thank you.
Screenshot attached. http://img291.imageshack.us/my.php?image=picture5rz8.png |
Those files are complete actually. However, I'm still trying to figure out previous issue I posted above. I also see another part 58 uploaded by Poncho. Something odd is going on here.

I just received some clarification from zephyroth everyone. Here is what he wrote to me.
Just to be safe, There are 71 rar files and 9 par files. The name is the same because I edited the previous ISO and didn't recreate one. (the script to make an EFI ISO was working fine with 10.5.1 but not with 10.5.2) Don't take care about "ponchorancho" or "Hussein" I'm posting it with [email protected]. Still 19 rar and 8 par to upload. Good job Zephyroth! =) |
good job..waiting for the release...
hope rev 2 can solve my problem. i manage to install rev1 . all working except lan and audio(conexant hd audio vendor id=14f1, dev id=5045) |
what are the par files?
|
There are three par files. I think they should extract as you extract the rest of the .rar files.
Quote:
|
par files are an addition to the split rar archive.
one can use them for recovery if one rar is corrupt. if all rar work, no par are needed. |
someone can give the MD5 checksum or SHA1 checksum of the ISO?
|
MD5 checksum : b0a03ae95cd2b199be9d5463b9251d3c
|
How big is it? 3gb?

Sorry if I have screwed something up :( |
Sorry, but i don't understand to use newsbin, can everyone tell me how to use it?
I try to use grabit, but is impossible to use!!! |
weehoo! burning :)

$ md5sum Leopard-10.5.2-AMD-EFI-Rev2.iso
c460e58614b2074969983b03dbca00d7 Leopard-10.5.2-AMD-EFI-Rev2.iso grrrrrrrrr |
how could ISO md5 be wrong if rar unpacked it without any errors?.. :-\
|
@farcaller
I have the same md5sum and it's working fine for me, just installed it. Only thing that didn't work is the dualboot-loader. I copied chain0 to C:\ and modified boot.ini. When I choose MacOSX from the boot-menu I just get a blinking _. But this may also be because of my TrueCrypt-Bootloader. |
Yes sorry I made a mistake with the MD5 checksum.
For the Windows bootloader, Mac OS and Windows are on the same disk ? |
What's the correct MD5 Hash? I'd like to spread the valid one on Infinite Mac!

C: WindowsXP (10GB, encrypted) D: MacOSX (20GB) E: Stuff (900GB, encrypted) I first type the TrueCrypt-Password to pass the TrueCrypt-Bootloader and then I get to the Windows-Bootloader. If I skip the TrueCrypt-Bootloader with ESC I get "HFS+ partition error" (I guess TC trys to boot it itself).

Thank you zephyroth.
P.D.:Tonight I upload to TPB in torrent. |
If i have win in a separate HDD this dual boot work equally?
|
@ pcgame
yes you can do it |
Well, now we all know...megaargon is WinLinMac01. Whats up all? Yes, I did not leave this project for good. It is my goal to give as much feedback as possible and make future releases a success. =)
|
megaargon, which nick do you prefer?
This one or WinLinMac01? I can switch it back if you like. |
Thanks for asking. I would prefer WinLinMac01 please. =) Truly appreciate that.
Question: The posts that I previously put from megaargon. Have those been deleted? Or they still exist? Quote:

Good points:
- my GFGo7600 works in native resolution out of the box Bad points: - QE does not work :'( - permissions on ext2fs kext are wrong - killed GRUB in MBR (or that was rev1 bug in fact, preventing it from modifying MBR?..) Thanks for good work though, if I could only get my QE back..... |
Is QE working for everyone? Or just certain people?
|

I can't find the 9 parts. May have to check on Unison instead.

I have one strange bug:
Finder->Go To -> Connect to Server... doesn't work at all, no matter what I type in, it always says the URL would be invalid. I also cannot connect to smb-shares: "connection failed". I guess these bugs may be related. |
