Attention:

1- This DVD is designed for Intel architectures.
Minimum requirements: Intel SSE2 CPU, 512MB RAM, 10GB free space on target partition, OpenGL VGA card.
Recommended: Intel Core CPU, 1GB RAM, 15GB free space on target partition, nVidia 6xxx or newer - ATI X1300 or newer - Intel GMA950 or X3100 VGA card.

2- This DVD includes Apple's Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.5 (9F33) installation.

3- Make sure that the md5 checksum of your iATKOS iso image matches the one posted on our website. Otherwise you may have a faulty DVD image. Use quality media/burner and burn slowly.



Information:

- This OSX86 installation DVD release supports both GPT and MBR partitioned harddrives.

- The major improvement on this 5i release is updating your running system using software updater just like real Macs. This is possible for Intel based chipsets. Please read the information about preparing an upgradable system below.

- Main system is fully stock! That means it can't run on x86 hardware without selecting none of x86 patches. At least you need to choose one of the decrypters.


Installation:

1- Run Disk Utility via Utilities menu and erase the target partition for clean install. Do partitioning if you need to.

a- You can choose MBR (Master Boot Record) or GPT (Guid Partition Table) via partitioning options. If you want to change your existing partition table type, note that all your existing data on disk will be gone.
b- For Windows fellows that has not tested this amazing system yet and that does not want to loose their windows software, porn and virus&trojan archive on D:\, should use Parted Magic Live CD for preparing an active primary target partition and after that, just erase it via diskutil. Jump to Step 2.

2- Select the destination for installation.

3- Click Customize*** and select what you need.

4- Click Install.

Install time is about 20 minutes.


*** Customize section is the most important part of the installation for you to make OS X work on your hardware.

Customize:

- iATKOS Main system: If you want to install the osx86 main system, you need to select this.
- Bootloader: You have 2 choices. You must select one of them for booting your osx86 system. PC_EFI V9 is an "all in one" bootloader and has many options. The most important ones are DSDT override, external kexts and the 64bit mode (snow leo only). DSDT override will be needed for the upcoming updates, otherwise osx86 systems will have kernel panic due to new RTC driver. "External kexts" option allows users to use external location for their special drivers (/Extra/Extensions), this will protect them from the updates. iATKOS v5i installation has all the needed scripts and packages for you to prepare an upgradable system and update like real Macs, but you need to read the information about preparing an upgradable system below.
The other choice is Chameleon v1.0.11. This is compatible for most systems, users whom want to have a normal old-style osx86 system may choose this bootloader.
- Decrypters: You must select one of the decrypters for your x86 hardware.
- SMBIOS: You need to select one of the enablers or classic x86 SMBIOS drivers. Enablers allow your system to run on stock SMBIOS driver and this is also a must for upgradable systems. x86 patched SMBIOS' are for normal old style osx86 systems.
- Kernel: You can choose 9.5.0 voodoo, 9.5.0 fassl kernel or old 9.2.0 toh kernel which is compatible for most.
For upgradable systems, the custom kernel you selected will be protected after applying the update, which means you will be running on new System.kext + your old 9.x.0 custom kernel which is not right. System must run on System.kext that belongs to your kernel version. So, you will need to replace new System.kext with your old System.kext, otherwise you will not able to use none of USB devices. You can find your custom kernel's System.kext under /Library/Temp. New updated one is in /System/Library/Extensions folder. Do not forget to repair the disk permissions using Disk Utility.
If you want to switch to stock kernel when running upgradable system, then you need to edit com.apple.Boot.plist file under /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration. You need to change the value ''custom'' to ''mach_kernel'' and reboot. Don't forget to use the same System.kext version with your running kernel. For normal iATKOS osx86 systems you need to check /Library/Backups folder for the stock kernel and replace it with the existing kernel on your root.
- ACPI: Main system includes stock ACPI driver. You can choose modified ACPI for shutdown/reboot problems and also you can select OHR driver for such issues. You can choose x86 modified ACPI driver for PS2 mouse/keyboard and also PS2 driver can sure manage that but it is not a good choice for upgradable systems. You may need to select APIC driver for some mobo.
- Disabler: This driver disables some problematic drivers, you may not need this for PC_EFI V9 systems but this can still be usefull for most systems.
- Remove PowerManagement: This removes the most problematic driver. You do not need it if you select Disabler or if you are on PC_EFI V9 bootloader.
- PS/2: Driver for PS/2 keyboard/mouse. You will need to modify the Info.plist of ACPIPS2Nub.kext for the update's ACPI version before applying main system update, otherwise your ps2 mouse/keboard will not work. For upgradable systems, I advice you to use x86 ACPI driver instead of this.
- OHR: Driver for freeze issues on shutdown/reboot. Modified ACPI driver can be an alternative for this.
- Drivers: Additional drivers for your setup. Read the descriptions.

*********Preparing an Upgradable System**********

A profile is given below, first four items are musts for upgradable systems, the rest are for additional setups. Read carefully. Intel chipsets have more chance for success.
- Main System
- PC EFI V9 Bootloader
- One of the Decrypters
- One of the SMBIOS Enablers
- It is better to use the stock kernel. If any custom kernel is selected then you will need to replace the System.kext with the one in /Library/Temp after applying the update.
- For PS2 mouse/keyboard it is better to select x86 ACPI driver instead of PS2 driver.
- Speedstepping support may be problematic for upgradable systems without Disabler. But you can use it safely with Disabler.
- GMA950-a will fail after update, GMA950-b or efi string should be selected for such systems.


Multiboot:

iATKOS 5i has no integrated procedure for multibooting but preparing a multiboot GPT or MBR system with this release is easy.

Here is a ''How To'' for GPT and MBR triple boot including Mac-Win-Linux.

- MBR (Master Boot Record) triple boot -

- Change your partition table type to MBR (msdos type) and create 3 primary partitions by using Parted Magic Live CD or iATKOS Disk Utility. HFS+ format for OS X target, Fat32 for the others.
(Note: %99.99999 of the PC harddrives already have MBR partition map scheme (msdos type) which you can change it to GPT via Parted Magic CD or iATKOS Disk Utility if you like to.)

- Add boot flag to Vista or Linux target and install the OS' in any order you like. For linux, do not install bootloader to MBR, install it to linux root. If you want linux to take the boot control then you need to install its bootloader to MBR.

- Boot iATKOS 5i DVD and install OS X to its target as usual.

- You may need to repair Vista. Add boot flag to Vista partition, boot Vista DVD, select repair, add boot flag to OS X partition, thats all.

Now you have triple boot on MBR.

Note: Adding boot flag to MBR partitions: Boot Parted Magic Live CD, right click to partition, select flags and click to boot.

- GPT (Guid Partition Table) triple boot -

- Change your partition table type to GPT (Guid Partition Table) and create 3 partitions by using iATKOS Disk Utility. HFS+ format for OS X target, Fat32 (msdos) for the others.

- Boot Windows Media and install it to its Fat32 target partition.
(Note: Vista might not detect the hybrid partition table as XP does If so it will refuse to install the OS on the target. The trick is just try to format the other partition and then select your real target again for installation, you will see that it will success this time. No need to worry, it will not erase any data that time, because it cannot even detect the MBR part of the hybrid but this trick solves it.)

- Boot Linux media and install the OS. If you want OS X to take the control of booting then install Linux bootloader to Linux root. If you want Linux to take the control then install it to MBR (actually the MBR of msdos part of the hybrid partition table) and you will need to change the install order also. The one which will take the boot control should be the last one to be installed.
(Note: Some live linux cd stuff (knoppix, kanotix, parsix, etc.) has built-in installer applications and they use gparted for partitioning and formatting targets. At this point, formatting target to linux fs via Gparted is not a good choice because it may break the hybrid partition table, use unix fdisk just for changing the target partition type from ''c0'' to ''83'' which is linux partition type, then you can continue installation.)

- Boot iATKOS 5i DVD and install OS X as usual.

Now you have triple boot on GPT, thats all.



Known Issues:

- This dvd may not include all the necessary drivers required by your setup. Additional steps may be needed to be taken by the user to setup and use such components.


Unsuccessful Installation and Related Symptoms:


- System freezes at grey screen by booting from DVD.

--> You probably have an unsupported chipset.
*965 or newer chipset ASUS or MSI motherboard/laptop
*many VIA, SIS, ATI chipset motherboards
~ start with cpus=1 -v
~ Play with BIOS settings, turn off 1 core
~ There are modified BIOS' for Intel 965 and newer ASUS/MSI motherboards

For newbies: You need to know your hardware details. Not like "I am running on intel chipset and my soundcard is ac97!!"
There are many intel chipsets, many sound cards, many ethernet cards etc. "Broadcom ethernet" is not enough to be a detailed info!!!! Broadcom has about 20 different wired ethernet models. The "example" should be like this:
My motherboard chipset is P35 + ICH9, my onboard sound card is Realtek ALC888, my vga card is gigabyte nvidia 8600gt 512mb, my wireless ethernet card is broadcom bcm4316 and i have Realtek 8111b wired ethernet card. Search these on google you will get what I am saying. You can get this info via google and also using some software may help you to get this information about your hardware.
So you will need to learn to use google and wiki as well.
Good luck

WARNINGS AND UPDATED SOLUTIONS

- ICH7 and some ICH8 southbridges are supported by default, so you may not need to select any sata driver for them, especially for ICH7. Most ICH8 (including AHCI of course), ICH9, ICH10 and the ones that are older than ICH7 need SATA drivers to be selected during install. Read the details.

- Old Intel CPUs may need custom kernels, you can try voodoo beta2, fassl or toh kernel. So just try, stop asking please.

- Many sound cards work with the built-in azalia driver but some of them do not. Do not complain about your sound card's azalia incompatibility, just google! Taruga patch 1.20 solves many of the sound problems! you can get it by the link below.

- SMBIOS EFI will be loaded after first reboot. This can be a major problem for some systems. PS/2 keyboard/mouse problems or kernel panics can be possible. You need to select SMBIOS Resolver or SMBIOS Enabler or an x86 SMBIOS driver instead of SMBIOS EFI during install for such systems!!!

Taruga HDA Patcher 1.20

Can i install without overriding the files my Iatkos4i ?
I use Logic and i need the files but i would like also to install this new version, any help?

[Pere]

Yes, use another partition or a external hard disk to make a time machine backup, Format the system and install the new Iatkos on a clean environment, later, use migration assistant to give back your user files and programs (just that).

[surfino]

oh, cool! Thank you, will try it tomorrow!!

[samplesam]

Wow thanx for all the hard work. I just abit confused about the SMBios enablers and the hardware decrypters. Could you provide a little info about the different options, ie appleDecrypt vs dsmos, and smbios-efi vs smbios enabler? Which will be better for the most vanilla and upgradable sys. Thanx

[ranp22]

This is the great osx right now and thank God for your hard work. Just like what SAMPLESAM said

Wow thanx for all the hard work. I just abit confused about the SMBios enablers and the hardware decrypters. Could you provide a little info about the different options, ie appleDecrypt vs dsmos, and smbios-efi vs smbios enabler? Which will be better for the most vanilla and upgradable sys. Thanx

Could u give us some enlightenment? Thanks and God bls...........

[Pere]

Both decrypters should work on any system (install one at a time), upgradeable or not, they are just different approaches to the same thing , the same we can say about smbios enablers, but with the smbios, you can check wich ones gives better system information report.

[uphuck]

actually the most i like is smbios resolver of superhai but it has no option to set memory tpye etc. so i use smbiosefi

[georo]

Installed but the sound and the DVD is not working. Is no sound device to chose and the dvd is not playing.
I have realtek build in sound card and the video card is nvidia 7800 gt is any drivers or patches for this problems ?
Thank you in advance for any help.
