[Installation/Help] Recommendation? / Advise
I've tried expirementing before but I only successfully installed once; Now I really need some help because frankly, I just click random boxes and as far as that got me was one successful install that didn't work quite as I expected since a) wireless didn't work, B) audio wasn't working c) everytime i move, resize, scroll and window the content of the application flipped. But now I've decided to use iDeneb since it has AL660VD patch which was one of the problems that may have affected the installation i did with iPC with all those problems. I don't really post much in forums but this will really help me.
So I'm going to install iDeneb unless you suggest something better. Here's my spec's please give me some help on deciding which patches to install: Quote:
want for free. I hope I can offer my services as I'm a really kind person. According to this sound I choose? Quote:
----Questions---- Q) Why does it show like NVdarwin 1.2.5 and than NVdarwin 1.2.5 <RAM SIZE?> / if so which one if best?, NVKush, NVinject, NVdarwin? [Forum looks great btw, I'll make sure I'll try to become apart of this community, seems awesome] |
you shouldn't click random boxes...
\ only get the PS/2 Fix if ur keyboard or mouse isn't USB. Voodoo sounds about right. That might be a good install, hoping that everything works out correctly :) |
Personally, I think that if your running a dual boot machine with XP or Vista, you want to be able to read NTFS while in OS X, it makes moving files between the to so much easier.
After doing some digging, I found that the protections Vista puts on certain directories (folders) are not there! For me, thats a good thing. For people that don't know what they are doing, that could be disasterous! |
Yeah, I'm just new to the OSX scene but I have extensive knowledge of windows which doesn't really help alot right now. But I decided to give it another whip and well I got a boot0 error; I'm going to try reinstall and then look up on how to solve it since I don't really know how to access that drive again even though i fixed my mbr.
//Any ideas? I think I nailed the hardware configuration, but I'm not certain till I see it. I tried booting from cd : rd = rdisk0s3 but it my install seem'd bad. |
Sometimes I get a kernel panic when I boot, other times its fine...
Try booting again |
I already deleted the partition, I wanted to try iPC final iso since I got PPF5 in the past which didn't have ALC660VD but the final iso has, which is quite good. I didn't know I downloaded the wrong version so I'm going to see how this goes. Also; I'm just wondering if I do r=rdisk0s3 -v ? will it boot disk 0 partition 3 (where leopard is installed for me) and find out why it panics?

installing as little as possible on first install will have less chance of a crash ;)
you can always go back after you have finished installing and add kexts to make your hardware work properly |

I think I'll use NvKush since the last time i remmeber installing the pacific graphic kext and I think it bugged because I also selected Kvinject 256mb. (possibility?) Add me on msn by any chance =P |
dont have one dude,
and if u think its because of a kext u installed, then yea if u go into singleusermode u can remove it, its somewhere around here... i cant remember the exact command.. i think its rm /System/Library/Extensions/(the kext u want to get rid of).kext |
