Snow Leopard 10A432 Install
“@ aryajuanda: Is your system working without chipset drivers? What about these: AppleAC97Audio.kext AppleNForceATA.kext nForceLAN.kext skge.kext These kexts I need for my hardware in Leopard. Will they work in Snow Leo, too? Interesting wou…”

Snow Leopard 10A432 Install
“Ok! This may be another silly idea. But would it be possible to load a cpuid patcher/simulator from a bootloader just before loading mach_kernel? I don't know if this would be possible as I'm not a programmer, but I was thinking QEMU, which…”

BootThink 2.3.18 Released! With better Snow/DVD support
“Zarac is right! If you install chameleon or boot think on an original mac,it will not be able to boot after that! If you want to install a "similar" bootloader on an original mac you can try rEfit,which is a bootloader with lots of options …”

BootThink 2.3.18 Released! With better Snow/DVD support
“Do you know if the new version will support a dsdt patch (using dsdt.aml file like on chameleon/pcefi)? I have tested boot think v2.2 and it was running fine on my system. About my system: Motherboard: Supermicro H8DAE-2 with nVidia MCP55 P…”

SSE2/SSE3 - 32/64 Bit Kernel for Snow Leopard by qoopz
“Great! Someone is trying hard for all of us! I'm using this kernel right now and it is working as fine as it should be (some issues with 64 bit "mode"/apps, no cpuid patch for now e.t.c - but all of them are known and described inside kerne…”

“Πίστεψέ με δεν είναι όπως το λες, το sleep είναι όλα τα λεφτά και το ξέρω από πρώτο χέρι γιατί είχα iMac.. εκτός κι αν το έχεις το μηχάνιμα να κατεβάζει όλη την ώρα διάφορα κλπ, τότε δεν το χρειάζεσαι.. Εγώ έχω (είχα γιατί το έκαψα και πρέπ…”

“Το sleep δε δουλεύει ούτε στο δικό μου σύστημα… ποτέ ωστόσο δεν έψαξα να το φτιάξω, αφού ποτέ δεν το χρησιμοποιώ, σε ότι λειτουργικό και αν τρέχω. Νομίζω ότι είναι χρησιμότερο σε laptops/netbooks και συναφή και γενικά όπου απαιτείται εξοικο…”

NVIDIA Geforce 9500GT kext for 10.5.4
“Hey! Have a look at this! http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/lofiversion/index.php/t158685.html This should do the job. I've never installed 10.5.4 so I'm not sure,but for 10.5.6-10.5.7 and 10.5.8 the driver installer isn't necessary. Anyway,…”

What OSX Version can work with my hardware
“It's not that hard! Kext=kernel extension=driver, so forget about what you may already know about drivers for windows.This is a totally different approach! If you create an installation dvd with the proper kexts for your system inside it, y…”

What OSX Version can work with my hardware
“Oh,by the way, my favourite distro for PC is XXX 10.5.6! I think that this was the last one that the xxx team made.Anyway,it's easy to update it to 10.5.8. I had also managed to install iAtkos v7, but the AppleNforceATA test kext was respon…”

“My chipset is nvidia MCP55Pro(=nForce professional 3600) Right now I'm using leopard 10.5.8 which is rock-stable on my system. Some nForce SATA controllers are supporting AHCI mode, and some others(like mine) don't. I'm using AppleNforceATA…”

What OSX Version can work with my hardware
“I believe that your system can run all the newest leopard versions (10.5.6, 10.5.7, 10.5.8) but you have to: 1)Adjust your bios correctly 2)Select the appropriate patches from the installation dvd I think that you have to be more specific i…”

Apple “Releases” 10.6 sources
“I still cannot understand why they haven't already released XNU sources. How the hell did they build the current snow kernel,if not from source code? From hopes and dreams? I really don't know what's going on!”
