i installed Snow leo succsefully but i have some issues
-Ethernet Isn't working (it worked for the first hour only)
-My 4 Sata HDD aren't working correctly ( unreadable )
-i cant find a driver for my hd5850
-i couldn't find a Working driver for my built in card or my Creative X-Fi Titanium

Here is what I did I scrap my laptop to bits and sold it on eBay then got some more bits from peoples rubish then sold that on eBay too. Then I took the money ad some more money to it and bought a nice second hand iMac . Now I don't have to worry about fixing this fixing that . Hacking tosh has took so many hours from my life

@tattootroy iMac's will need maintenance too and when they do make sure you have more than just bits

Thanks Dj Osiris for bringing that up and thank you for your very informative posts solving problem for others that I've read and learned. I would love to support Apple by purchasing a real mac but I am kind of poor now, and beside that I can take apart my "Mac" and replace anything I wish, and plus I've learned a lot since getting myself into hackintosh (many thanks to the community and the help of people). I have been installing Windows for years and still forget how it goes, but with OSX it is quite an experience albeit in just a few weeks. Also OSX is so nice about sharing room and board on my Mac with other OS's, really impressed!!!
Still thinking about supporting Apple.....Oh, well....maybe later!!!
Regards,

Thanks for the kind words and thanks for contributing it's appreciated .

Um I'm not a 100% but I don't believe the hd5850 is supported yet . You should be able to get a better resolution than 1024x768 in Vesa though. In Chameleon's com.apple.Boot.plist try adding this

<key>GraphicsEnabler</key>
<string>Y</string>
<key>Graphics Mode</key>
<string>1680x1050x32</string>

Note: change the resolution to your own.

No QE/CI this way though if that doesn't work you can hack the VBIOS .

Can U Be Specific
Where Can I Find that com.apple.Boot.plist
exactly
thx for ur patience

Hmm I thought that was pretty specific lol. Okay it can be found in Chameleon's Extra folder. It's hidden by default so either grab ShowAllFiles.app from Kext.Com or type these commands into Terminal:

Show All Files

Code:

defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles True

Hit Enter

Code:

killall Finder

Hit Enter


If com.apple.Boot.plist doesn't exist in Extra folder you can create one, it's just a simple XML text file. However I was nice enough to upload a basic one for you link . As I stated above change resolution with your own. Hope this helps .


To Hide Files Again

Code:

defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles False

Hit Enter

Code:

killall Finder
