Perfect Hackintosh 10.5.1 - EFI and Vanilla Kernel
The RatSim team managed to build a perfect PC configuration to run MacOS X Leopard. We are using Vanilla Kernel + EFI, so, software updates without a problem! Everything is working, from CPU to GPU, with minor patches applied (Built-in sound) As for extras, we bought a cheap VIA firewire card, working perfectly with a DV camera (Canon ZR60) and Firewire Audio Interface attached (Presonus Inspire), also, we're using a Edimax USB Wireless dongle (EW-7318USG), working perfectly with kismac (wardriving app)The best thing is this machine was built for just 700 Brazilian Reais or US$ 400,00 (which could be much less expensive for people living in more developed countries without abusive taxes)By the way, note that you're not allowed to have Mac OS X installed on a PC, also, we're MacManiacs since 1984 or so, and we condone piracy, especially piracy of awesome software from Apple, but what we do condone more is the abusive prices here in Brazil for Macs and the total disrespect from Apple towards Brazilian Market, for instance, we hate the fact that something that belongs to us, such as an iPhone, is totally locked up for mediocre business agreements. The same applies to Intel Macs in a less aggressive way, because, hey... Come on... It's just a regular PC.We really hope that Apple think different from now on, and release a SDK for the iPhone, as well opening MacOS X for the low and mid-end public. It's sad to see that Apple --still-- can't see this huge market (software) towards this direction (everyone), and the advantage of an enourmous gap that Vista, unlike previous versions, left behind. Someone have to fill this gap, will it be Linux, Google? Or will we be Windows XP slaves forever?Wake up Apple!!! Go Leopard!!!Don't get us wrong (A.K.A.; Don't Flame Us!), it's simply our opinion...-------------------U DATE-------------------Due to frequent requests, here are the Specs of the critical components used in this specific configuration (we've actually did many more configs):Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-945GCMX-S2RAM - 2 x 1Gb Kingston ValueRam DDR2 667Processor - Intel Core 2 Duo E4500GPU - Geforce 7300GS - Point of ViewCool extras (all working): Via Firewire Card, Presonus Inspire Audio Interface, FastTrack USB, Canon ZR60 Camcorder and recently tested: Cheap chinese Midi to Usb cable, bought off ebay for 5 bucks, working like a charm)------------------------ -------------------For complete specs or advice on building your own Hackintosh, you can contact us at Rat.Sim.Br@gmail.comAlso, we'll try to answer the emails the best we can, since we're building hackintoshs for hobbyist purposes only, we pretty much don't have time available to reply quickly.

If you cant boot OS X without the DVD then you most likely have the wrong kind of boot loader installed if you have GUID and its happening try changing it to MBR , might fix the problem.,

I'm currently looking for a laptop that would be perfectly compatible with EFI and Vanilla Leopard. If you know of anything, send me a message! I need something affordable for college next year!

Yup, actually the first Apple II clone, from a company named Unitron, back in 1983... Good times! -sigh- |
