Not really sure about that one, I have never tried. I know there were posts saying it did not work when Leo was released. Have you tried this board too? I got mine when they first came out, but was pretty pleased to find how well it worked with OSX 86. It automatically switches off the GMA 3100 if a PCIe card is found in slot one.

Hello Ritalin! Thank you for the great patcher and for sharing your job for all. I have a WLAN Adapter with an Atheros AR5212 chipset and need the patched IO80211Family.kext with Manufacturer ID 168c and Device ID 0013. So i followed your steps in the post "How to make your own pkg containing your own kexts". The package, i have created works well. But if i build the OSInstall.mpkg, i get 63 errors and the test of the ready OSInstall.mpkg returns with this error in a small window: "Operation could not be completed. (com.apple.installer.pagecontroller error -1.) Couldn't open "OSInstall.mpkg"." Can you help me with this? And another question: With an install of the original Leo Disk or ToH i can choose at the beginning of the GUI install the language for the next steps during the installation, for example german. How can i change the script in OSx86Patcher, that this possibility is not removed in the patched Leo? F-Didi Send me a link to the patched IO80211Family.kext or the pkg you have made. I will add it to the OSInstall.mpkg for you. Is German the language you want? I can do you a version of the patcher which includes German if you like. I'd been thinking of writing a how-to add language packs, guess I should do it. |

No, I haven't used that board myself. We just wondered if the GMA3100 could work on this. |

Hi, im very impressed on your work. you have done a wonderful job by helping others to make thier own distro.
Anyway... about ACPIPlatform, on the IRC #Leopard channel, they have a fix for the REBOOT/SHUTDOWN issue. Now, my question is, is the fix only applicable for a certain type of mobo or for the whole?
reason for asking is, Im trying to add a pkg from your script, and want to add my own additional kext.

AHA Ritalin,
It seems that my disk problem is related to my GA 33M DS2R as I tried all the coasters I burned and they worked on my GA 965-DQ6 board. It may be the overclock I am running (Quad Core @3.4 GHz). I need to try an installation with no overclock. I will report back.

Rit,
I'll pull my GPU and try v7 with the onboard graphics (GMA 3100) and report back. Everything else is working great with no noticeable hick-ups. I'll let you know how it goes.

Nope, 10.5.2 baulks on GA 33M-DS2R with the bios all set to standard settings, but the disk installs fine if I leave off the 10.5.2 update. 10.5.2 works on my GA 965-DQ6 fine though. Do you think this is a ICH 9 thing or have others had success with ICH9. The DQ6 is ICH8.

Do you think this is a ICH 9 thing or have others had success with ICH9. The DQ6 is ICH8. It's working for nikonnut, see above. There must be some difference between your setups. You could compare the MD5 of the patched ISOs. See if the disk you two are building are coming out different. |

OSx86_patcher_v7_1 Edit: Its faulty, don't use it!!!  Includes the WLAN kext* and you can now pick a language pack to add to the DVD during the patch process. Completely untested by me, so let me know how it goes please. *10.4.8 IO80211Family.kext with Manufacturer ID 168c and Device ID 0013. For use with a WLAN Adapter using the an Atheros AR5212 chipset. Using the 10.4.8 kext with Leopard gives you a working airport extreme, but only for WEP or open networks. ;D |

Aqua,
I've not has any problems. And since we share a common Mobo I wonder if it could be hardware related? Would having the 8800 installed before the Graphics update was applied cause any problems?

Using the 10.4.8 kext with Leopard gives you a working airport extreme, but only for WEP or open networks. This version also includes tools to help make a removable drive (such as a usb stick) into a installer disk. Instead of burning the ISO onto a DVD do the following: 1) Mount the ISO using Disk Utility 2) Select the Restore Tab 3) Drag the mounted ISO volume into the "Source" 4) Drag the removable drive into the "Destination" 5) Tick the "Erase destination" box 6) Click restore 7) When Disk Utility is finished you can use the "makeBootable" script in "OSx86_patcher_v7_1" to set the removable drive as bootable. "makeBootable" just needs the path to your removable drive as an argument. Example: Where "/Volumes/Mac\ OS\ X\ Install\ USB" is a USB stick named "Mac OS X Install USB". |

I'm afraid don't know anything about the REBOOT/SHUTDOWN issue. Luckily I've never suffered from that type of issue on my mobo. I will look into this though and see what I can find out. |

Huston, we've got a problem! I put the wrong flipping Bless script in the OSx86_patcher_v7_1 Uploading OSx86_patcher_v7_2 with the correct Bless script now. Sorry |
