I just wanted to share; this post is as much a bragging as it is a help file for others with similar systems. I used the Hazard DVD 10.6.2 Distro last night (torrents stuck at 97.6% - used newsgroups), and it was entirely successful and…

Please see my sig for system specs. I installed SL to a usb drive (320G ide), after first attempting (several times) to install to a 80G sata. Installer doesnt fail, but I got kp after reboot. The issues Im having: I think I may be having…

Hopefully someone can shed some light on my issues here. Ive been all over forums and google as well as *a different site*... 1st- I can seemingly only install 10.5.4 with Leo4all or iDeneb. Ive tried iAkos 4.1 and 7, which show the "no"…

I am unable to find a kext that will work with (specifically) my NForce 500 chipset. I am using a M2n-Plus sli board *and originally had a second lan card in there that worked, but bugger if I can find it now*. I have searched google and…

“My disc reads at 192KB, but I have successfully booted from it on my dual core system. Sometimes the distros just dont work for certain systems. i.e. back in the day, iDeneb and (something, cant remember which) would do the same thing... re…”

“dagger I think you'd have to post in the "mouse sluggish" topic, and go from there. Whatever the issue is, its obviously system-based and a different kext may solve it for you. Mouse out of control after install NVEnabler or iAtkos Install …”

“who can help me? It was still 2 minutes to go, and tht instellation would be done. But then i become the follow Message It lloks like your kernel crashed. If you have an AMD system, try the other kernel, modbin *restart setup.”

“First off; AWESOME release. See sig for test rig. But, how about the "Hey we are going backwards!" error... anyone have a fix for that? (Trying on my other system). Specs: M4A78 Plus AMD Phenom 9650 Quad Core ~2.3GHZ 6G DDR2 800mhz 4- 1.5TB…”

“Edit: This crash hasn't re-occurred, should I not worry? System crash - I was browsing a website; I had not clicked on anything, nor did I have anything extensive running in the background. The apps I had open were Vine Server, Firefox, Adi…”

“Sorry for the delay, I was in Mexico for vacation. As to your issue, it _may_ have something to do with a hardware compatibility issue... try removing all non essential hardware and (Im sorry to say), start over. Non essential means everyth…”

“I need some help. I cant seem to even get to the install screen on a mac and Ive tried a few methods. Can someone point me in the direction of a good image to use? MSI 785GM-E51 Motherboard AMD Phenom II X2 550 (OC'd to 3.62 per core) 4GB D…”

“Thanks a lot HardRom - you encourage me to make a second try with my M2N-SLI deluxe - coz first one failed when I tried hazard`s 10.6.2 - I was unable to boot DVD disk because my SATA DVD drive was connected to JMicron SATA port (no matter …”

“samm5506 its been a few days, is it working for you now? I ran Marvins on the drive itself after first boot, had some issues patching (from single user, not OS), but proceeded anyway, and Im still running sweet.”

“Can i use an alternative kernel except those provided in the iso? I couldnt tell you. I never had anything to do with the development of this distro, and am not much past a basic noob myself. The only thing I've got under my belt over the n…”

“The safest and smartest way since you have a non-working system currently is to start fresh, format the drive and do the installer again, not choosing the SuperViaAta. Honestly, thats the route you should take. It will take longer, but your…”

“Dont feel too bad, I can't get my other computer (this, the primary one) to boot ANY distro (Hey! We're going backwards! is the error). I used the legacy fixes as *I BELIEVE* they have more IDs in them, supporting more types of hardware, sp…”

“Any luck, Angelost? gophish99, I dont use iTunes on that rig, so I couldnt say. I will test it and see... as far as internet though, I have noticed no issues what so ever (Shaw High Speed Xtreme I). You could try a different ethernet driver…”

“@Everybody YES YOU DO. Defiantly back up your kernel. they update it in this package, meaning it will be overwritten making your install useless. Well. Its a good thing I started reading forums before jumping in to new options on my hackint…”

“Youd have to recompile it to be sure, but there is something different about it... I dont know. All I know is that the first nforce LAN didn't work for me, but that one did -which I found on an alternate site (cant remember which, now); thu…”

“Hopefully this will help others, too. Im still loving my SL.”

“W00T! Got QE/CI working, monitor to shut off via hotcorners, and the screen saver to quit crashing the system! It even detected my monitor type (Kristel 19)! All I needed was to get my card stats from EFI studio and post into smbios plist. …”

“No, that Super is glitched. Ive read in numerous places that its not a 64 bit (true) kext. The issue I got while I had it installed was: FEDE genero 32 IOVMSegments (I think; ) it was hard to see as it was scrolling past the screen rapidly …”

“Got it thanks to Seaghost (skype). I needed the AppleNForceAta installed. Im currently looking at the before you begin page! Thanks for the assistance, all! Much appreciated. Hey, spalek! I appreciate you taking the time to come back and tr…”

“Thats very good news... unfortunately Im back at square 0. I just cant get it to boot on my sata drive... currently with appleintelcpumanagement removed, I have the lovely still waiting error”

“Another quick one; Imaging the SL disk and restoring it to my sata should work, shouldn't it? (The USB ide drive is Really slow) edit: Uh... no. No luck restoring. "panic(cpu 0 caller 0x2a6ac2): Kernel trap at 0x00508684, type 14=page fault…”

“spalek83- Attached screenie for new kp scififan68- HOLY CRAP! That worked! Thanks! edit: So much work to do... Only my usb drive is detected, I have sound, but no lan. Clicking Lan Properties in system profiler froze my system... Either way…”

“Glad to be of help. Remember, we are dealing with a hack here so there are things that are simply mind boggling. I am not planning on installing SL until next week when I get hold of a copy. I am actually buying one.:) I plan on testing it …”

“Thanks for all your help, punk_zappa and xXrkidXx . I really appreciate it. I now have a working, fully functional 10.5.8 with all the bells and whistles. Even my usb bluetooth works! I was able to find the kext I needed for usb. Hopefully …”

“I installed the kernel, and I thank you for that advice. My installers no longer crash, I was actually able to install! The issue with USB still exists though, in that plugged in usb sticks and drives arent accessible. Profiler says that th…”

“download Andy's latest 9.8 kernel, check the New releases section. It wil fix your problems... it should update your kernel and your seatbelt. so youll be good. Installed it, but still no USB harddrive or sticks...?”

“That's a big negative. I was able to install your kernel, np. Even with the dl'd seatbelt and the usb2fix from leo4all, no dice on the USB HD. Installing the latest (patched) security update screwed me again, too. Installing once again. But…”

“If you chose to reinstall, I would suggest to update 1 at a time. Download 10.5.5 update from Apple, patch and install. Do the same for the next. After 10.5.6 you might have a problem mounting .dmg files, check system.kext for kernel versio…”

“Cool thanks. Im going to try to only select the kernel from leo4all installer and see if that works, if not it doesnt take too long to reinstall. Back in 8 hours or so. Edit: If you dont mind, you may as well PM me the link anyway, and Ill …”

“In your Leo4All DVD there is a usb fix. Extract that with Pacifist and install. Report back if it works or not. OR Check your System.kext for your kernel version and download a Seatbelt.kext for it. Install with kext helper. Having a hard t…”

“First reboot scared me, as it loaded the apple screen then rebooted, but entering -v -f seemed to let it boot into ... 10.5.8! Thanks, punk_zappa! Going to reboot again now, without flags just to be sure. Even if I need to flush the cache e…”

“Will give it a shot, be back to let you know how it went. Thanks for the advice! Edit: Had to reinstall Leo4 as my last one was really corrupt (wouldnt boot), am now installing the modified package, eta 5 mins.”

“This kext worked for me, and as explained in a different topic, I dont know whats different about it, and cant remember where I got it. It works for me though. Dont forget to remove the other kext and sudo -s (enter your password) chown -R …”

“Not really an answer to your question, but a suggestion nonetheless... Your system is fairly similiar to mine, and I had the same issue. I burnt probably 7 different dvds of distros (from iDeneb to Leo to iAtkos). The only one that seemed t…”

“I like Leo4all, I used 4.1 (10.5.4) then upgraded to 10.5.8 and changed the kernel to Andy's.”

“I like Leo4all, I used 4.1 (10.5.4) then upgraded to 10.5.8 and changed the kernel to Andy's . I cant tell you where to get it though.”
