Hello Guys, I successfully installed iAtkos v7 on AMD Phenom 2 X4 955 Quad Core running on ASUS M4A79 Deluxe motherboard with 4GB DDR3 Ram. Here is my install experience I tried installing SnowOSX 10.6 and 10.6 Universal, iDeneb v1.4, 1.6 Lite... but none of them worked for me... or maybe I did not have a proper guide like how I had for the iAtkos! I followed the Mickey Mouse guide of install which I must say is as simple as eating honey from a jar!! They have explained everything for no-brainers like me. What each patch meant and why and when should they be applied. BTW, my whole experience with hackintoshes has just been a few sleepless days! So bear with me iAtkos installation went smoothly on my 1st test laptop (ASUS A7V Series Notebook, Intel Pentium Mobile 915 2GHz, 2GB Ram, ATI Radeon x700 Inbuilt Graphics and ALC sound). Ok thats good news.. but it also followed with bad news!! Ended up messing my other notebook tablet PC! I did not realize the iAtkos DSDT patch and/or Chameleon v2 would reset or flash the BIOS and this crashed my HP TouchSmart tm2. Now its nothing but a bunch of blinking LEDs...guess I have to send that back... oh well... will write about that and the install experience of another Laptop in another thread...moving on. (... But if you are going to install this on any HP touchsmart laptops make sure you do not select the DSDT patch or Chamleon Boot Loader 2...HP has something against flashing bioses I guess!! ) Ok back to the main story-Prepped up my PC with a proper Drive Partition to load MacOSX in. I had 3 HDDs so I made the MAC partition on a drive that did not have my primary OS (XP) on it. After creating the partition, I disabled all other Harddrives in the BIOS, and also unplugged it just to be sure that the installation does not mess up the primary boot records (...learned from experience ). I have Ubuntu and XP loaded up on the main drive. I did not enable any other settings in the BIOS, even left the ACPI was set to default IDE mode instead of SATA. All done and rebooted the PC. On DVD boot, initially it did not work straight off the bat... so I went through the guide again, and noticed that they had options to use different kernels instead of the default "mach_kernel". Its said that "mach_970" would work better for AMD systems. I needed more than just a different kernel though. I had to also set the busratio for it to work properly. As stated in the guide, busratio=20 worked well for i7s, so i figured since mine is a new config too, it should work... and that was the magic keyword indeed!! mach_970 -v busratio=20 Yayyyy...!! Now to the install... Depending on the other external USB devices connected to your PC, you may notice errors during boot... ignore or try disconnecting all of them and proceeding with install. Oh yeh, I am using Wireless keyboard and mouse, with a USB dongle, but mac picked that up smoothly too.

Erased the drive using MacOS Journaled type... and mounted successfully. Went on to the Customize screen, and Selected the following Options Chamleon v1 loader (Did not want to mess with Chameleon v2 because the guide says that it auto-fixes the motherboard issue, meaning it may flash the bios too... did not want to risk it) /Extra Directory (not sure if this option works because I could not find Extra Directory under the root) Disabled DSDT Decryptors - Apple Decrypt No Simbios drivers selected. Selected Kernel 9.5.0 (9.7.0 resulted in a panic on previous install on the same system...) VGA - Do not select ATI HD. Select Intel 950 instead. (this is probably not needed either, it picks up default VGA anyways) Checked Disabler (sure remove all the problem areas for me!! ) OHR - not needed on first install. Sound - Went with AppleHDA (realized it would not work without Mod) but either ways do not select VooDoo. SATA/IDE - Checked ATI SATA/IDE and Generic IDE. (This is required so that it can load up all your SATA/IDE HDDs and also helps fix the "Still waiting for root" error). Checked USB Checked Apple PS/2 Driver for Keyboard/Mouse. Checked NTFS-3G Network - Wired - Realtek R8139 (even though my actual hardware was RL81111/8168B... this worked fine) No Languages needed Checked Post Install Actions. (this need not be checked if you are doing a driver install later on). Thats all of it I think. Since I had already run this install on another Laptop, I skipped the "Checking Integrity of disc.." step. Total installation/copying files took around 10-15mins. When it shows the Restarting in 20seconds screen, make sure you go to the toolbar on top and select Utilities>Reset Password. This is to enter your Root Password. In the process of halting/rebooting, It would show invalid kernel and panic errors. No worries... give your Restart button a handy push. On Reboot, press F8 again to enter boot flags. Enter busratio=20 -v -f. Chances are you would boot all the way but you would get a pixelated grainey Black and White screen, or a Blue screen would just flash and your monitor would show "No Signal Detected". This is because the VGA drivers installed or on the system are not compatible. Fixed this by rebooting into safe mode. busratio=20 -v -s Typed in the following commads. /sbin/mount -uw / cd /system/library/extensions

rm -r ATI* rm -r Natit.kext reboot (followed by kernel panic errors again... ignore) After reboot (enter busratio=20, and "v" if you need verbose mode).... viola... you can see the Keyboard setup screen!! Followed installation on the screens, set up account.. blah blah... save and OK. Desktop is by default 1024x768 mode and no Sound. Network worked fine, so installed OSX86Tools, and Kext Helper app. Added EFT string " busratio=20 -f " in OSX86Tools so that I would not have to enter it everytime on boot. Also set graphics mode to 1440x1050x32@60Hz so that I can have a bigger desktop.

Now.... Getting the sound to work - Modded ALC 1200 This took a lot of wasteful trial and errors. Most of the Time I just did a mindless thoughtless cut and past of driver kext files from the forums... Finally I used my aching head and realized.... hey I may just have to include my Device ID for it to work (as suggested for ATI Radeon Drivers in some threads). So I looked in the included files of ALC1200 kext audio pack, and opened package contents of ALCinject.text>Info.plist. What do ya know... they had an array of device IDs. pci8086,3a3e . . pci10b9,5461 I checked System Profiler to see if they have my Device ID, but nope! Not on there. Thats where OSX86 Tool comes to the rescue. Click on View PCI Device/Vendor ID, and it showed 04:00.1 Audio device [0403]: ATI Technologies Inc HD 48x0 audio [1002:aa30] So I figured, 1002:aa30 is my device id, and in the format above it would be something like pci1002,aa30 Save, and Used OSX86 Tools to install KEXT, Reboot and Check System Preferences.... wait for it..... and viola...... Output tab shows Internal Speakers, HeadPhones and Digital Out!!!! I got all my 4.1 speakers working! HD Head phone mode works too. I do not have a Digital out cable but I assume that works too.

Installation of Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4850 driver - Followed guide on http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=155477 Boot with -s, and do the following commands: /sbin/mount -uw / cd /system/library/extensions rm -r ATI* rm -r natit.kext* Reboot with -f -v. Run the installation package 7_radeon_hd_48x0_drivers.pkg Install ATY_Motmot.kext with Kext Helper Reboot -f -v Bug - Bouncy Screen. Downloaded Package Natit_no_powerplay_4800_4600.pkg and install it. Reboot, and shout out WILL FARELLS NIPPLES!!!

Got 1920x1080 resolution!!! wooooot...!!! Bug - Black Screen during Change of resolution. Downloaded Natit_with_4850_bios_inside-1.pkg, install, reboot. Driver worked perfectly.... ofcourse I spent like 2 days finding the right driver.... I would have gotten alot more sleep if I found this post earlier!! it even recognized my Monitor and has the name displayed perfectly, and also probably have the right driver/settings for it because the font is nice and crisp. The only other issue I have now is the CPU config. System profiler shows random values at random times. Sometimes it shows CPU speed as 59GHz...!!! righttt...!! Gurus I need your help on this please. I hope this post would be helpful to other people with the same config. Have Fun!!! (Next Step= Looking into updating to newer versions without messing anything up)
