Hey Guys,
I found many instructions to inject kexts into the Leopard DVD-Image, but I haven't installed Leopard yet, because my hd doesn't run (I have a VIA-Chipset - not supported in Rev 1). So how can I inject the VIA-Kext in my image? I've got Windows Vista and a Live-Knoppix. And will Leopard with this kext work on all chipsets?
Greetings,
Chris

Pls post your full specs, also what sort of VIA-Chipset is?

The only way to fix this issue would be to inject the Kext into dvd (you can find it here : http://osx86.wikidot.com/utilities-resources), meaning you would have to re-compile the dvd. Using Windows or Knippix to inject the Kext to a HD would not work cause you can't write into a Journal partition

That's what I'm trying to. I have to inject the kext into the image/DVD. But "how" do this on Windows?

Board: Epox 9HEAI Rev 3
Chipset: VT8237R
Northbridge: VIA K8T890 rev 00
Southbridge: VIA VT8237 rev 00

Graphics: GeForce 6600 GT
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3200 2.0 GHz

Hey, I downloaded IsoBuster. Am I able to inject the kext with it?

Have you used transmac and macdrive?

Okay, I got them right now. What do I have to do?

BTW: I downloaded and installed transmac and macdrive, but in IsoBuster I can see many, many folders like Library, Instructions, Install Mac OS X.app (as folder), Optional Installs and other folders and files. Where do I have to place my kext?

/system/library/extensions/

That's it? I only have to copy the kexts into this folder? Great, thanks.
