OSx86 iPortable 10.5.4 USB stick image INTEL only (sse2/sse3 or up..) with universal chameleon bootloader..
Re-ripped, rebuild and tweaked by Protocol-X to make this Leopard.. The second Portable (USB) Live edition...
Note: it is slow running on older PC's running from an USB stick..Main reason is the limitation in speed on a USB stick..(Just a power over USB portable harddrive is a lot faster.., but not so fucking portable as a stick!!)
it's meant to repair and rescue your current OS, or clone it to your harddrive or other destination....If it won't boot, try to install Chameleon bootloader on destination.. otherwise.. It's bad luck.. your PC isn't supported.. (you always can try to hack the BIOS firmware of your motherboard.......die hards only !!)
you can find HELP on:
# kalyway.DVD irc.osx86.hu
# leopard irc.osx86.hu
# www.muzzle.nl (Dutch Hackintosh community)
# OSx86 Hackintosh forums spread over the whole wide .net...
# When your network card driver is installed, try Firefox... there are interesting OSx86 links...
Read carefully !!!
AMD not supported, INTEL only [SSE2/SSE3] or higher.. (for AMD you always can try patch it after cloning..)
English only !! All languages and other platform system architectures are removed !! except dutch option is left in..(je zult alsnog Nederlands apart moeten installeren als gij dat wenst..)
You can always re-install this languages etc. very easy afterwards..
TO INSTALL:
Drivegenius 2 is fastest way to clone with unmounting both drives..mount USB image, choose that as source disk... and make your USB stick the destination disk !! If it won't boot..install Chameleon Bootloader on your (USB) destination disk !!
You can use CarbonCopyCloner 3, DriveGenius 2, or other cloner.. Select this included diskimage as source disk, or mount it first...then select mounted partition/Try to force a clone on block-level !! [try to force a clone on a location where you can unmount both source and destination (the only easy and proper way to do this is with 2 physcally USB and/or harddrives already installed..) But is also possible to have succes without unmouting the drives (source and destination) Always try
to unmount destination disk first.....
Clonetools H1. With Clonetools H1 choose Hackingtosh architecture, and clone it to your desired location !
Always Repair your Permissions after cloning..
If it won't boot after cloning.. Install Chameleon bootloader on the destination disk, it should be bootable from a USB stick.....or your PC isn't supported..
Login:
User = protocolxleohacked
Password = x
iTunes, iChat, Mail, iPhoto, DVD Player etc.. are removed..
All videodrivers are removed.. to prevent problems on some systems !! Except some Intel videodrivers are left in..
Spotlight is disabled, you can turn it on with cache Cleaner..
Install your own OSx86 videodriver after cloning..in Downloads folder you can find Graphics Update 10.5.4-10.5.5 after installation, OSx86 tools will help.......
After succes you can enable QuartzExtreme 2D for even more video acceleration with Quartzsimple in OSX Utilities folder..OpenGL with OSx86 tools.. With video-hardware acceleration Leopard should be running like hell..(NOW IN 10.5.4 UPDATE in Downloads folder there is a 10.5.5 Graphics update, install it and choose your string or injector)
Don't try to install OS system updates, unless you know exactly what you're doing !!
based on Universal x86 DVD 10.5.2 and INTEL 10.5.3 update version of Kalyway..
based on slipstream script by DENSE ! ;)
ich9 support by DUNE ! ;)
updated with iATKOS 10.5.4 Intel system
Rebuild, tweaked and updated by ProtocolX ! :)
Notes: If you have problems with booting your (USB) Drive after cloning, install Chameleon bootloader on the destination disk.
To get a higher resolution without a videodriver hit F8 at Darwin's promt and type: "Graphics Mode"="1280x1024x32"
if you have problems with installing your videodriver on reboot with video gfx (blue or black screen)
All you have to do is just press F8 at Darwin's prompt and then type -x, (safe mode) and/or -s (single user mode) then
at root type mount -uw /
and /movevideodrivers
then it will be prompt to move video drivers by class ( nvidia ; ati ; or intel gma) voila!
type yes to confirm or enter to skip !
After trying updating your system, type: update -v at Darwin's prompt..
more options for Darwin's promt:
* -f This forces rebuilding of extensions cache
* -s Boots into a single user command line mode
* -v Verbose, boots in text mode showing all debug info and errors
* -x Boots into safe mode
* -F Ignore configurationfile
* rd=disk0s1 - Tells Darwin to boot from a certain partition specified in BSD format.
(Disk 0 specifies first HDD and s1 specifies first partition as 0 is the MBR.)
* cpus=1 Tells the system how many CPUs or cores to use, useful for Core Duo users.
* platform=X86PC - Can be used if problems with normal booting, ACPI is another option here
* -legacy Boots OS X in 32bit mode rather than 64bit if 64bit is used due to a 64bit processor
* idehalt=0 May stop stuttering
* "Graphics Mode"="WIDTHxHEIGHTxDEPTH" (e.g. "1024x768x32")
For VESA 3.0 graphics, you may append a refresh rate
after an "@" character (e.g. "1280x1024x32@75")
* kernel: kernel name (e.g. "mach_kernel" - must be in "/" )
If you need to copy the bootloader to the MBR use this command:
fdisk -u /dev/rdisk0
All the permanent settings are stored under /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist and a good way to edit this is using nano in the command line. Another way is to drag it to the desktop, edit with TextEdit and then overwrite the original but this usually saves time with ownership issues.
Just copy and delete orginal from location, and edit on desktop with textedit...
But for instance to open it in the terminal I would go:
sudo -s
nano /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist
You will then see something similar to this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Kernel</key>
<string>mach_kernel</string>
<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string></string>
<key>Boot Graphics</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>Timeout</key>
<string>10</string>
<key>Quiet Boot</key>
<string>No</string>
</dict>
</plist>
Let's look at what each of these do.
* Kernel - this tells the bootloader which kernel to boot with.
* Boot Graphics - this tells it whether to show the pretty Apple loading screen or not
* Timeout - this is the time before the default boot option is chosen
* Quiet Boot - if set to yes the OS boots straight to the GUI without showing the bootloader, if set to no it boots to the bootloader first.
To use the chain0 boot method this MUST be set to 'No'. To access the bootloader when this is set to 'Yes' bash F8 repeatedly during boot till it displays.
You can set more than mentioned above but those are the standard ones and any of the following can be added using keys such as "<Kernel Flags>" or "<Graphics Mode>" to the config file. All commands in darwinbootloader you can put in plist file.....
An example of a configuration to boot OS X in safe mode, verbosely, with 1024x768 resolution forced and with the 2nd partition as default is as follows:
<string>-v</string>
<string>-x</string>
<string>rd=disk0s2</string>
<key>Graphics Mode</key>
<string>1024x768x32</string>
Save your plist file on desktop, with extension .plist, delete orginal, place your own, Repair Permissions with Disk Utillity, Reboot...
\Even if you have chosen a kernel.. you can still try the others kernels for testing ! (same thing for Kalyway dvd boot except that only modbinkernel , speedstepkernel , kabylkernel and nforcekernel are available as boot options !)
All you have to do is just press F8 at Darwin's prompt and then type the kernel's name you want to boot with :
sleepkernel (intel/amd/sse2/sse3)
speedstepkernel (intel/amd/sse2/sse3)
nforcekernel (intel/sse3)
modbinkernel (intel/amd/sse3)
vanillakernel (intel/sse3)
kabylkernel (intel/sse3) with sleep support
Kernels:
kernel_9.2_sleep
kernel_9.2_speedstep
kernel_9.2.2_kabyl
kernel_92_nforce
kernel_vanilla_922
kernel_9.3_modbin
kernel_9.4_modin
kernel_9.4_StageXNU
default boot is modbin 9.4 kernel.. -v at Darwin's prompt will boot modbin's 9.2 kernel..
