Thank you for your reply fgwrst, I tried the above method on my laptop ASUS M50VM-B1, no luck at all. Keeps on giving me a SMBIOS error when I put the Retail disc in. Does anyone have any solutions?

Thanks in advance,

you not need to do that, just download iPC, search google for your hardware kexts, chack it in your mac installation and it will work like a charm
if the boot0error after installation comes up thats couse your win partitions. than just install iPC on second drive or USB.
mac works on USB but it booting slower

I boot from the disc that is new and fresh (and the one you have, and another), but when I boot from the MacOSX 10.5.6 Disc, the screen after the white apple screen goes blurry, with streaked lines and some bar off to the left a little turns black and it all fails. I have a Fujitsu Lifebook A6120 (Not a custom computer). Please try to help ASAP. I’ve looked all over trying to find ways to get a Hackintosh built. I really need HELLLLLLPPPPP!!!

fantastic- thank you so much for putting this in simple, clearly laid out form.

i have a samsung r510 laptop. your method worked for me with 10.5.6 retail, combo update to 10.5.8, and r560_system_drivers_10.5.8. all i had to do was change my bios settings to:

intel speedstep: enabled
legacy os boot: disabled
legacy usb support:enabled
large disk access mode: other
achi mode control: manual
native ahci mode: enabled
edb: enabledusb s3wake-up: enabled
boot device priority: 1. dvdrom, 2. hard disk

prior to installation i recieved the error image telling me to replace batteries in my wireless mouse (tho i only had a trackpad) so i plugged in my usb wireless mouse en voila- i could install. i also attached a usb apple keyboard and wl mouse as the installer wouldn’t recognise my keyboard and mouse until the update and r560 driver pkg.

straight away i went to system preferences>energy saver>computer&display sleep: never, disable hard disk sleep. the reason being it went to sleep after the installation before i could update to 10.5.8 so i started again.

after update to 10.8 i didn’t restart, but installed r560_system_drivers_10.5.8 from some russian site, then restarted.

also the update hanged for a while at 2 mins remaining, just wait it out, for me it eventually finished installing.

wireless and ethernet aren’t functioning just yet, i’m going to look that up right now.

infinite thanks.

i don’t understand the following:

he says: “6. ….enter the two-digit hexadecimal of the drive where you installed OS X. Enter 80…”

what is the two-digit hexidecimal value of the drive? ie. “C:” ?? or “80″? or “c: 80″?

going to try this out tomorrow. apart from this, a very easy-to-understand guide. in foresight ;)

thanks big time.

hi
could someone help, myinstall keeps freezing at the 1st blue screen after the apple load page.
in trying to instal 10.5.6 (as its the only 10.5 i have) on a hp G7000 laptop (dual intel).
im using the posted modded bootloader (vanilla bootloader does nothing).

ive left it running for 1hr on the blue screen but nothing (this part of the load is about 30secs to 1 min on a mac from what i remember.
ive tried 10.6 with the same but it wont even load the apple install screen.
thanx in advance.

Like many others, thanks for a great tutorial.

I am not sure whether your tut instruction of "Shutdown fix" actually will solve my problem - not so sure and don't want to mess up a working install.

My motherboard is set to powerup after power interruptions but then the machine gets stuck waiting for me to press Enter to boot up (at the boot prompt where before step 4 you had to enter 80 and then enter).

How do I get my machine to default to 80 and go past the prompt? Is there a startup script or something?

hi i have installed mac my laptop a complete different way in the past week and trying 4 different pre patched instalation discs finally on the fourth pre patched dvd (ideneb) evrything worked fine on start up but only 1 problem the laptop i used was a asus with a smashed screen the only way i can use this is by plugging a computer moniter in to my laptop through the vga port. i could see the installation on the screen but wen the laptop restarts after installation it booted then the screen went off and the hot keys to i use to switch it back on didnt work … is there a chance that this installation would start the vga port automatically ?? or is there any patches to make this work?? thankyou
