Click to expand.It seems the opposite, actually. You're telling people what you think is right, and pushing that strongly. I just tried to tell you that if you really did care that much about legitimate software use, you'd know that you agree not to install OS X on computer hardware other than an Apple made computer. Mind you, EULAs are weak anyway, and courts don't generally care for them. I simply meant that if you were going to push the whole 'morals' thing on us, you may as well do it right. Don't suggest that there's a completely legit way to install OS X on a non-Apple computer.

Either you follow through on being 'the good software user', and not install OSX, or you try to do what you can to make OS X work on a machine not condoned by Apple or the EULA to which you agreed to. Notice how I still helped the OP with netbook choices. Yeah, I'm really pushing my values onto others. Ok Friends, thanks so much for all your help and opinion!

I just bought one used MSI Wind 10 minutes ago because I think less than $400 dollar in price for a not even two month old machine is a decent deal to me. (retails $549.99 plus 12% taxes here) I will try my best to put leopard on it and will let you guys know my experience and other thoughts.

I hope everyone can stop arguing about what's right or wrong here. Let's have a peaceful and helpful environment here as it should be. And again thank you very much for all the inputs! Ok Now I'm trying to get Leopard on. I've managed to create a bootable USB drive and was told to choose a volume to install.

THen I had to reformat the HD to MacOS Extended journal, everything is ok untill when it starts to install, it gives me an error message saying installation fails 'The installer could not create the folder '/Volumes/Untitled/BaseSystem.pkg.14258moLU' and asks me to restart my computer and try again, which I did million times and didn't help.

Any one has any idea about this? Click to expand.Good to hear you got it going, but personally I prefer the Dell Mini 9. I picked one up from Best Buy on Boxing day for 379 plus taxes etc. I grabbed a 32GB SSD from the site that is always advertised on mydellmini.com and I couldn't be happier. It runs most things I throw at it without problems and has continued to impress me. I've got two finger scrolling working, sleep, you name it, it works as it should.

With the SSD in it, it boots in a few seconds, which makes me want to have an SSD drive in any Mac I purchase from now on. If anyone has any thoughts on actually picking up a netbook to make into a hackintosh, then make sure that the Dell is at least one of your first inquiries. The work that the people have done to make it work properly is fantastic. It seems to me that Dell Mini 9 to be the easiest one to have OSX running on it.

And thanks for all the tips you guys provided. Also Mydellmini.com is indeed very useful. Now there are two things holding me back from buying the Mini, 1. It appears to me that it's more expensive than the Taiwanese ones. Wind or Aspire One look better IMO What do you guys suggest? Is it worth the extra cash?

Is there other sites that have similar content to Mydellmini.com? Preferably on the MSI or Acer? Click to expand.I have an Asus 901 with the Atom, 6-cell battery & windows XP. I looked at all of them before buying.

The Asus is the smallest, if that's what you are interested in, I would recommend comparing sizes, some of the netbooks certain Asus models, lenovo, an HP model and others either have 10' displays or have 8.9' displays in a 10' case, they all look good though.by the way, the Aspire One ( w/ 160GB HD and 6 cell battery ) was my second choice. The 6-cell battery is the way to go, the Asus I have runs for 5+ hours on it. Guess I should have read the entire thread before posting this, good job on your purchase! Enochpeng, check out the work that the Voodoo guys have done with their PS2Controller kexts. They don't get nearly enough love from the Wind community for their work, and their two finger scrolling drivers are a bazillion times better and simpler than anything else out there I've seen. Linkage: You might want to check if your Wind has a Sentellic or Synaptics touchpad first, though.

The Sentallic pad is (apparently) total gash and will limit your options. Fortunately I have a Synaptics in my Wind so the Voodoo kexts give me excellent real-Mac style two finger scrolling. Oh, on a tangent, directed at the Dell lobbyists - 32Gb SSDs?

Do me a favour. But I would prefer to have more than Safari on my Hackbook. (I've even done development on my Wind, although it's not my preferred environment granted!).

If you are using OS X Lion (v 10.7) to restore your image file to your USB stick, then you will NOT be able to get this installation to run. When Lion was made, tweaks to Disk Utility (specifically the restoration process for restoring disk images to other places [such as your USB stick/SD card] created problems with hackintosh users all over the place. If you are attempting my guide (or most others for that matter), you need to use a computer with either OS X Leopard (v 10.5) or Snow Leopard (v 10.6). These both have safe versions of disk utility to restore the image file to your USB stick. Lion will NOT WORK. Rock Steady Crew Ready For Battle Rarity. —————————————- Hey Guys, So I’ve been busy with schoolwork, but I have also been trying to do hackintosh for over a year now. I have the Asus 1005hab-blu001x netbook, but this should work with any 1005ha/1005hab and maybe the 1000H/1000HE netbooks.

First of all, thank you for an excellent guide. I’ve followed it to the tee and everything is working awesome on my 1005HA. However, as noted I’ve had to turn my airport extreme down to just A/B/G wireless for my 1005HA to connect successfully. I’d like to have wireless N if possible. So my question is, if I were to replace the internal wifi card with a Dell DW1510 half-size mini (which has been recommended elsewhere because OSX natively supports the BCM94322 chip), could I simply copy “IO80211Family.kext” from my mac mini to get back to the default drivers? If so, would I then rerun pfix? The dell card you are talking about is also a G card, not N.

The 1510 half size is a Wireless-G card (I also have that one in addition to my Atheros 9285 card. You SHOULD NOT COPY that kext from your mac mini. The kexts on the original mac are MADE FOR macs and macbook pros. The IO80211Family.kext on real macs are not designed for hackintosh. Do not use them.

To just answer the question about running pfix, you have to run pfix after each new kext you install/put in the s/l/e folder. To be honest, there is not a major difference between Wireless-N and Wireless-G. The major difference is the range of the actual wireless. There are some speed and download/upload benefits, but unless you’re gaming on your hackintosh netbook (which you really can’t do extensive gaming), or running a lot of intensive internet-related windows, then Wireless-G will suffice.

Hope this helps, TechnoTalk •. Bummer, apparently I misread the specs on the Dell DW1510 half size card. My real issue is that I’d like to enable 802.11N on my airport extreme router in order for other devices to take advantage of the benefits of N vs G.

It is unfortunate that I have to turn off N for everything on my wireless network in order for the Net book to connect successfully. Unless I am doing something wrong, my 1005HA will only connect after turning off N on my airport extreme router.

Any suggestions? Thanks again. Thank you for the quick response but sorry for the confusion.I have a running 1005hab on Snow Leopard 10.6.6.

Honestly i have solved the problem. Since my message to you on your site. I tried many things but what fixed it was reinstalling the combo update. I do have another problem though. After 30min or so if use my 1005hab it will over heat.

If it runs a multi task (time machine) or a add on accessory like a external monitor it will shut down. The only way i have been able to prevent it is to run a fan next to it when using it. I have PNY 2gb ram upgrade + A seagate Momentus 500gb 16mb cache 7200rpm drive. Please let me know if you know something i can do to trouble shoot this issue. One last thing.

Ican hear th fan run on boot.so i think i can asume the fan is running. THANKS FOR TIME •. I read your problem and I went to investigate. And I discovered that the problem is, the cooler of the netbook is turned off when you start Mac OS 10.6.6 (I’m sure this did not happen in 10.6.5). I have also installed Windows and you hear the fan, also when the garment is listening until you load mac. Therefore, IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND THERE IS A SOLUTION TO LOOK FOR FAST OR NOT USING. I hope I have helped with this, and thanks to ronzo for having communicated the problem.

Sorry for my English. Since my last post i tried some tools i found available for MAC`S. SMC Fan Control, CoolBook and FanControl. FanControl had some sporatic control for fan speed and temp control but it seems as if they dont recognize the computer outputs. I wish i could use Coolbook, i belive under volting would be key for better temps and batt life.

I currently only clock a 1.5 hour batt. I hope we can work out something to gain control. With all the brain power that flows through this site i belive we can work through this. Those will not work. Not because of the kernel, actually.

It is because it looks for distinct drivers and codecs on the hackintosh are not the same as the ones that are on real macs. Those softwares look for specific hardware that are in real macs (such as the fans and the logic board (mac motherboard) connections). This has been an ongoing issue with hackintosh computers. There has never been (and probably never will be) a fix for this problem.

As far as battery life goes, that is not a result of the operating system bottlenecking the capacity of the battery. It’s a result of the operating system requiring more battery life. I get 1.5 hours on my 1005HAB-BLU001X. On windows, it was getting about 3 hours of battery life. There is NOTHING you can do about either of these problems. They are risks and compromises you take in creating a hackintosh.

TechnoTalk •. I have the same problem, with overheating did it everything by the book (exellent work many many thanks) not noticed before but after 10.6.6 I have overheating /fan problem. On cold boot, grey apple scren no mater how hot machine is, it kills fan, than after booting I do not hear fan even when playing flash video but it does not seem so hot, another time it is hot like hell and I have two shutowns because of temperature and fan not working at all this time.Plastic start to smell how hot machine was. But after sleep fan starts on max and after some time cools down and silenced and than working like it should In this scenario it is strange that after so much cooling and noise machine is so hot. I can get the grasp of this problem.

Any solutions? Kernel and sleep enabler no go so far. I need 10.6.6 because it has localization for my language. I did not use your kernel 10.6.5 as you but 10.60 published at your topic on Insanelymac and I modified dstd for battery and that worked everything else is like you wrote in guide.

Everything works flawlessly no problems what so ever I was amazed and then I almost fried machine doing superduper disk image and fan was not working at all, after waking from sleep it works but it is strangly hot for so much noise almost more hot with fan than without I am puzzled. Other than that everything is went smoothly everything working I was so happy my first hackmack and now I am scared to fry my 1005HA •.

Thanks on your quick response and I must say that your guide is one of the best and sistematic guides I ever saw because I am completly mac nob and it went flawleslly from first shot. Now, most overheating is occured doing cloning or making image on external usb hdd with superduper or carbon copy. In my case distinction with your updating to 10.6.6 is that i used not 10.6.5 kernel like you but kernel in pckg that is posted on your guide on Insanely Mac maybe that kernel is problem after overheating i tried correspondent sleepenabler for that kernel not the same as you and there is mismatch between your setup and mine and maybe the cause of problems. I read some stuf about pc control fan and temperature from bios and mac from software and so this is the problem why hacktintoshes have problems with overheating (many desktop users have problems with leopard), then it may be conectet with battery somehow and 2 gig ram dstd change I do not recal problems before I do battery change in dstd. Some folks have theory about usb ports that this all is conected and in conjuction causes overhiting. Mainly the problem is with cold boot supposedly temperature is so low that dstd not trigers the fan and not trigering it at all before it is put to sleep and than works like it should. In my case even with hot machine after shut down at the momement grey apple screnn starts it kills fan immeadetly.

So simple solution may be boot put to slep wake and thats that but even so I have filing that fan is much louder than before and even on that velocity machine is still to hot. Maybe the problem is in that that cpu is on 1,67 not on 1,66 like before and is reckognized like mac air 1.1 maybe cpu is overclocked I mean litl gem works like champ with 10.6.6. I will try to change kernel to your 10.6.5 and stay on 10.6.6 or try to downgrade to 10.6.5 but I suspect that is possible? Anyway many thanks, I cant post on Insanely I do not know why so I attack you here 😉 Bye •. I kinda felt like i was pushing a edad issue but i found a solution for my 1005ha-b.

I mentioned using fan control. Well it had buggy results i found a post on how to remove it. Once i removed it i powered down the lap top disconnected the batt.

After several seconds i reconnected the battery and the fan is audible and no more sporadic shutdowns. Before i removed fan control i maxed out the fan speed and started the curve at the lowest possible temp. I changed the peek temp to 150 fernheight. If any one would me to i will put up some links for the soft ware. : i kinda felt like i was pushing a edad issue but i found a solution for my 1005ha-b. I mentioned using fan control.

If any one would me to i will put up some links for the soft ware. I would like to try your links. I have something to report also I tried yesterday all I do day before to recreate problem and fan works all the time and I think normal i even tried copying with external usb hdd without power adapter so it takes juice from notebook and it looks like ok, but hotter over all than working on win 7 (i make dual boot yesterday) and then netebook is cooler and make less noise. Wierd all I can say. Only thing I did not tried is superduper imaging disk when I first noticed how severe problem this is because in normal work it is hotter than win but not at such extent that bootom is unbeareable hot and plastic start to smell like melting.

I am puzzled, so far I saw thre of us with asus with such problem, other hackintosh users have also problems on their desktops even with leopard 10.5.6 distros and so on. @ronzo how much ram you got and did you do dstd change If you have 1 gb? Maybe the battery is problem? I noticed that problems like to start when battery is almost drain and then when you put powerchord and start charging. Maybe there is somthing in that?

Ssuch erratic accidents make me insecure to livve netbook to work something unattended. Last ime plastic was so hot and smell like burning, second time netbook automaticaly shut down and orange diode was blinking all the time until temperature dropped.

I have two 2gigs of ram. I belive it might be a battery issue becouse ever since i shut the lap top down, removed the battery only used power cord to power up. No problems since, i can even use it like normal now.

I can power it any way with no overheat issues. In funmodo`s Defense i tried to put up a post in insane and nobody reallly could help mabe becouse i am a new guy to the site.

I thin k we all think kinda highly of this site and we want your help. I felt like i was bothering u a liitle bit with the subject so i backed off.

If its cool with Technotalk i will post a full detail on my repair i just dont wanna disrepect his site. Yust to add to the problem of oveheating – new development so far I find 3 people with same problem. Only diference from the author guide installation is kernel for 10.6.6 update, because it was package from canadianguy tutorial (because ease of use,- no terminal work with kernel changing)). Today nearly catastrophy again, I was leave netbook to download with utorrent and came yust in time to see that display was in sleep and so looks like it was the fan. Plastick smells bad and it was so hot down there, merly touchable. Put lid down, netbok go to sleep, open and fan start to blow full strenght and save the day. Something in fan-sleep control must be wrong.

Beware and follow the guide to the letter mazbe the problem was in kernel changing that was onlz thing that I do not by this guide. For others with same problem I do not know but be causious. And I do dstd patch for batterz and 1 gb of RAM. This is only differencies. This guide is not derived from candianguy’s tutorial. So don’t start and point fingers like that. I perfected this guide myself, and the 10.6.5 kernel is the 10.6.5 legacy kernel.

So don’t say stuff unless you have proof of it. Secondly, I do not support the usage of P2P clients or torrenting, so please do not post this on my site again. Thirdly, like I have continued to say, I have NO solution for this problem. I have posted on InsanelyMac with no help. If enough people comment on the forum post, then someone can look into it in more detail.

I don’t write the kernels or drivers or anything, so I cannot help you fix this problem. Please respect what I have posted from now on. TechnoTalk •.

You missunderstooded my point, I did not pointing fingers at you, or at your guide, I yust said that all was good with your guide and then I update kernel from package on canadianguy blog, it was different kernel than on your guide (newer version legacy and package was self installed no work in terminal so this is where I fall) so not yours so maybe that is the problem. Another difference is that I make dstd patch for my battery myself because I have 1 gig of ram, you have two, so maybe one of that two things is what is the problem.

Not you, not your guide, not your kernel, so stick your finger into marmelade;). I know mine english is bad, but read more carefully;). Essentially I was telling people to strictly follow your guide becasue with canadianguy package clearly shit happens;).

I will try some of this days updating to 10.6.7 with your method ( kernel you suggest and terminal) and that hoppefully should resolve the problem, if not, I am tosted literally. Or fresh installation strictly by your guide. And btw guide is excellent, as I said earlier so keep it cool dude.If someone who never even smell mac can do it by this tutorial then it must be good, nespa? So this is what I am talking all the time about overheating, quote Technotalk At this point, you want to run the legacy_kernel-10.7.0.pkg. This will update your kernel to the new version (10.7.o legacy kernel) and replace the SleepEnabler kext for you.

You can now restart. On bootup, replace the backed up kexts and run pfix. Restart again. Like I said, I do not support Method #2 because I did not use it myself. There is no difference between using the new legacy kernel and the old method.

I personally like the first method because it is safer to use with the way we have updated to 10.6.5 and 10.6.6. End quote You are apsolutelly right because I was updating with package and now I have overheat problem, so now I will apsolutlly use your recommended method and do it little work in terminal and I strongly suggest everbodty to take your advice. 100% success with the described methods and an Asus EEE 1005HA. Thank you (TechnoTalk) for all your hard work and taking the time and effort to write the comprehensive how-to!

Everything works! And all is out of the box. – Wireless (out of the box, no replacement wifi – works after 10.6.4 combo updater + kext) – Ethernet – Bluetooth – Card Reader – Video Out (for use on projector) – USB – Sound – Audio In/Out – Graphics Quartz Extreme (QE) – Trackpad – Sleep Needed an alternative to use Mac OS X and a small form factor netbook that is easy to travel with, without spending $1000+. That worked for me as well.

Hey teckno congrats on the moderator at insane! I have to say thanks for all your help in the past. I got bored and tried the dual boot windows 7 with easy bcd and liked it a lot.

Then I tried out the triple boot with chameleon boot loader. Now I got a 1005hab running Mac OS X 10.6.7,Windows 7 and Ubuntu 11.04. With all the goodies. I would love to make a guide!

PM me if we can work out a step by step guide or something over insane if u like.I don’t know of a lot of good guides for triple booting for are little machines to perfection. Hello, Matt – thanks for what seems like a very well done guide, that I’m planning to follow. But – I’d like to have at least double booting 1005HA (SL & W7pro) – preferrably triple booting (+ Ubuntu 10.04LTS), but Linux is not absolutely crucial if it would make things that much more complicated. And since I’d like to at least start correctly (don’t mind redoing things a bit, but my biggest concern is to have rely a reliable booting), I’d so much appreciate if there would be a way to at least point me in the right direction (i.e. – which OS to install first, use “Chameleon” or EBCD, etc). Basically – I’ll be starting with replacing a HD (most likely 500GB, partitioning it, etc), so it’s going to be a complete fresh install of everything on one drive of course.

Noticed that there was a brief exchange between you & “ronzo77” on this topic, so just like to know if it has gotten any further or if you could find a moment to help. And – I truly don’t want to be a pain – from your comments I see (and completely understand/agree with) that your foremost interest/attention should be towards your studies, so see what you can do, if anything about this. Thank you for understanding about having my studies come first, I really appreciate it. As far as dual or triple booting, I don’t have a lot of experience doing it myself. What I can tell you is that the easiest way to do it is this: Create the windows and linux partitions first. You want to have both installed and fully working first.

As far as upgrading linux after (i.e. Upgrading ubuntu from 10.04 to 10.10 for example), I’m not sure if this is possible once OS X is installed, because it also upgrades GRUB, which could screw up the Chameleon bootloader. So make sure you like the version of linux you are on before you install OS X. Once both windows and linux are installed, then insert the USB and install OS X by following my guide. After all is set and done, when you boot from your hard drive, Chameleon should recognize and see both the linux and windows partitions and you should be able to select each and boot to them perfectly fine.

Hope this helps and works for you. Post again if you have any further questions or problems.

Techno Talk •. Hey Techno Talk, Just wanted to tell you thank you for an outstanding guide! I really can’t tell you how much I appreciated the clear instruction and thorough documentation. Everything went great, and my 1005HA-PU1X-BK is working 100%! No glitches, no problems, wifi, bluetooth, ethernet, battery (I have 2GB of RAM also, so didn’t edit the DSDT.aml at all). My system fans are also working perfectly, I didn’t need to do the battery trick, or revert to older AppleAHCI kexts.

Not sure if this is relevant or helpful to others, but I installed 10.6.0 ->10.6.4 ->10.6.5 ->10.6.6 ->10.6.7, following your steps to replace the kernel, reboot, rebuild kexts with ‘pfix’, reboot, then continue to the next version each time. Took all day! But the result is worth it. For future reference, is it necessary to follow that upgrade path, or can one jump from 10.6.0 straight to 10.6.7 (as long as they have the GMA950, IntelFramebuffer, and IO80211Family kexts, and perhaps the wifi (post 10.6.4) kext)? Also, the 10.6.8 Combo installer is available, and looks to follow the same process as the 10.6.6 and 10.6.7 updates. Would the 10.6.5 ‘mach_kernel_atom’ work in 10.6.8 if one followed the same process? Have you run into any issues with this in your testing and experimentation with 10.6.8?

I know you mentioned that performance would be better with the 10.70 legacy kernel, but I’m quite pleased with the 10.6.5 kernel (10.40, right?) so far. Maybe you could give us a brief update of what you’ve found so far, and an idea of whether a guide for the 10.6.8 update may be coming soon? Once again, thanks for everything, I couldn’t have done it without your excellent guide and all of the work done by the insanely mac community.

Kudos to all! Thanks for the info. I actually figured it out and will post what got me over the hurdle in hopes that google indexes this thread After upgrading the BIOS, trying 5 different retail images, then almost giving up, I hit tab in the bootloader to get to extra options.

When prompted to select a partition (in my case 1), I entered the following: 1 -v -s -f Apparently my Asus has some piece of hardware that the OSX install couldn’t handle. Therefore, your guide was right on got lucky after adding the -f to the verbose and safe mode. I am now up to 10.6.7 and writing this post from the 1005ha! Hope this helps anybody with a similar problem. Great tutorial. Thanks for putting the time into this for all.

I have a comment a few questions. First of all, for step 8, you mentioned: ‘Shut your computer completely down. Turn it on and hold ESC so you can boot from the USB again. Yes, the usb, not the hard drive. When the Chameleon bootloader appears, select your internal hard drive, not the USB/sd card’. This was a bit ambiguous because after pressing escape on startup, you get the BIOS asking what source you want to use to load the OS. After selecting USB, on the next screen you must again press a key to get to the Chameleon choices to then choose the hard drive.

It’s a small mistake but the last step is important. I’ve successfully got to 10.6.5, but have held off on 10.6. Download Windows Xp Sp3 64 Bit Full Crack. 6 because of the overheating issues I’ve read in this post’s comments. My question is: how can I make a complete backup in case I need to restore? I have read Carbon Copy Cloner is not as reliable for this [hackintosh] circumstance but SuperDuper is the better choice.

What do you recommend for making a complete backup to an external drive? My last question is regarding bluetooth: Everything seems to work for me on my Asus 1005HAB except there is no bluetooth option in the System Preferences. Any idea why this is missing? Thanks again. As far as shutting your computer off and booting via the usb, its critical that you boot via the usb chameleon rather than the hard drive chameleon until you patch everything.

Thats why thats worded the way it is. As far as backing up software, I’m not really sure what the best option is.

I always heard carbon copy is the best, but i personally don’t use anything. I use an external seagate drive and use their automatic backup software to backup the major folders that i need stuff from. As far as bluetooth in your 1005HAB, you don’t have bluetooth. Everyone thinks there is bluetooth in this model but there isn’t. Yes, in windows it has a section for bluetooth management, but there is no physical bluetooth chip inside the computer. At least for mine there isn’t.

TechnoTalk •. Oops, I forgot – I disabled sleep at all and my Ralink Wireless Utility drops radio from time to time, although the signal is displayed as “good” in the RWU Link Status pane. My workaround in turning the radio button in the utility off and on again.

Performance of the cpu is roughly 40% better than with XP metered by SheepShaver´s MiniBench2 rating. Battery uptime is about 120 minutes with the small Li-akku, compared to 160 minutes approx. The Eee-X already is a cool little machine – even more as a OS7.6 retro netbook with SheepShaver running full screen. : You should be able to upgrade to 10.6.8 the same ways as you upgraded to any of the other combo updates.

There are going to be some fan/heat issues as there have been in the past and, as far as I know, there aren’t any patches or fixes to prevent this from happening. Techno Talk I’ve tried this just now. That won’t work because it hangs some pci stuff it seems I booted the machine in verbose mode and it hangs on: [ PCI configuration begin ] I’m guessing some other kext might be involved having to be moved from 10.6.7 into the kext folder under 10.6.8? I’m fairly new to hackintoshin’.

Basically this is a try before you buy session for me. I want to get a MacOSx laptop soon, but I’m not investing into it without exploring the operating system.

As I’m fairly new, it also means I’m not that wellknown into the backup and restore procedures and options. So I spend an extensive amount of time redo’ing several installations from 10.6.0 ->4 ->5 ->7 ->8.

I’ve managed to get it upgraded to 10.6.8, but not in the regular sense. I’ve backed up the regular kept: – AppleIntelGMA950.kext – AppleIntelIntegratedFramebuffer.kext – IO80211Family.kext After this I downloaded the 10.6.8 update. Not the combo as I was already at 10.6.7. It saved me half a gig downloading. Also download the legacy kernel and sleeper kext from Nawcom blogpost here. Direct legacy package url: And the legacy IOPCI and ACPI kexts from Prasys.info. DIrect link — Steps taken: – run the 10.6.8 update, DO NOT REBOOT – place the IO80211Family.kext back into s/l/e – run the legacy kernel package – copy the legacy kexts into /extra/extentions/ – run pfix – reboot Why didn’t I run the video drivers at the moment?

In the first few tries I had 1 successful reboot loading everything properly. On the second reboot everything seems to work normal, except for the desktop consisting of purple square blocks and unreadable screens. As I don’t know how to boot into a safety mode where I can easily replace faulty kexts or run a backup from a network TimeMachine (yes, network, not local usb drive) I need some help figuring out what’s wrong with the gfx driver. Hi I’m trying to install OS X 10.6 on my Asus Eee PC 1005HA.

After copying all the kexts, and while running the ‘pfix’ code, the following windows pop up (one for each kext, not just the AppleIntelGMA950.kext): “System extension cannot be used The system extension “/System/Library/Extensions/AppleIntelGMA950.kext” was installed improperly and cannot be used. Please try reinstalling it, or contact the product’s vendor for an update.” Then on reboot none of the kexts have taken effect. I’ve tried copying them using both Terminal and Finder and installing them using Kext Helper b7. Thanks Joe •. Okay, I will try removing that kext and get back to you.

However, the message pops up for each kext and not just AppleIntelGMA950.kext. Won’t that mean that there’s a different issue?

I’m asking because you’ve been referring specifically to AppleIntelGMA950.kext, so I think you may have missed that I said (in my original comment) one for each kext, not just the AppleIntelGMA950.kext. I have no idea whether that particular kext is likely to be a problem or not, so I’m just making sure that you know all the details and didn’t misread what I said. The reason I didn’t try what you suggested before replying is because my netbook is currently running Linux, and will be until I get time to try this again. Tried this on my 1005HA, and got to the point where OS X setup said something like”Instalation failed Can’t copy files”. At that time it still had around 20 minutes left (according to setup, and progress bar was about third way through).

I thought “OK, no big deal, it’s in the tutorial that this might happen”. After restart Chameleon didn’t see my HDD (just install USB). Tried this several times, with several driver (GB and 16GB), the same result. Any clues what could go wrong?

Specs: Asus 1005HA (model with smaller battery and no bluetooth) Atom N270 2GB Ram 160 GB HDD •. 1st off, thanks for an awesome guide! Used it with absolutely amazing results.

Somewhere along the upgrade path to 10.6.7 I have had two small issues pop up that I thought maybe you could help me address; 1) My sound seems to be messed up and I have a hiss coming from the speakers 100% of the time unless I am set to mute. Any ideas on how to fix this? (Not terribly worried, but it can be a bit annoying) 2) My SD card reader isn’t being recognized by OSX anymore. I have to be honest, I’m not sure exactly what point along the way it stopped. I’m pretty certain it was working alright in 10.6.5 though. Thanks again for the guide and any help you can provide on these two issues.
