I followed the directions here, After the grey Apple screen I get to the starry sky, but the I just sit with the spinning wheel. This is similar to the same thing Abhijeet was experiencing about a year ago, but never saw any real suggestions.

Someone on another board recommended using a different Distro than 10.5, but not sure where I get it. Can anyone help?

Great Tutorial & Forum - just wanted to put this hardware profile out there - Vostro 220s - 2.8 GHz Core 2 with Intel G45 chipset and asus ati 3450 pcie w/ hdmi - The generic Boot 123 worked fine but you must turn off in advanced bios all the settings first. The OSX install & update to 10.5.4 went smoothly and Chameleon worked as advertised. Since I'm using this hackintosh mainly for downloading and video file conversions, I see no gain in trying 10.5.8.

Wired ethernet works from the start, no sound but I don't need it, and I have to type "Graphics Mode"="1280x1024x32" at the boot prompt, otherwise I get a fuzzy 1024x768. I tried adding the line to the boot plist but that doesn't do anything. Also Toast 8 installs but won't launch...also 5 minute boot time is annoying

Any Tips ?

Voodoo HDA restored sound, toast 10 works for making disk images. Tried all kinds of things in the com.apple.Boot.plist header but still have to enter at boot : "graphics mode"="1280x1024x32"

I´ve tried to install iPC OSX86 on eepc 1000HE (http://eeemeetsmac.webs.com/1000series.htm) on an external usb 2.0 drive. Installing and booting works, but then the system freezes.
But I dont think, that it´s because of the external drive.

Remember that the MacMinis are equiped with Core Duos. I happen to have one of the lastest issues of the Mac Mini, 2Ghz.. fine little sucker, but pricey....

I also have installed the 10.5.4 (and upgraded to 10.5.7) using my Lenovo T60 Thinkpad. Yes, it's a Core Duo, 2CPU, T5600 Running @ 1.83 Ghz. I feel no difference in performance at all.

I use my hack-intosh mainly for development in Xcode as the other one i have it also used by my partner for development and when one is using the simulator, the other cannot use it, so I decided to give a try on the Thinkpad I use for "other" work. No regrets here.

One of the key points in getting things started is to have the right set of "drivers" built into the boot132 cd. I was fortunate enough to find the right set at ( http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?show... ) where MACinized made a collection of boot132 custom for certain systems. Scroll through the limited list.. you may be lucky enough to find what you need there.

For folks who are having reboots, that is a clear sign that one (or some of ) the kexts are wrong for your hardware. kexts (kernel extensions) are like device drivers. If the install tries to load one of them and it's wrong for your hardware, things will go bad, being reboots, the most common symptom. This is a though situation for a novice on the realm of hackintoshes, but it's not impossible to solve. Read the link above which has links to other posts.

Sorry but I cannot help for specific kexts for your hardware. If you have nothing to start with, the best thing to do is to fetch the hardware that matches one of thost boot132.

I am considering to build my own Hackintosh. But before I jump into this project, I was wondering if the newer Core 2 Duo and motherboards are compatible with this tutorial. I noticed that the processor and mobo you used is no longer sold by Newegg. Any help would be great, thanks!

P.S.: What do you mainly use your Hackintosh for? How's the performance comapred to your MacBook Pro?

Ok, I'm stuck on the end of step 3. I do what it says and then I get stuck on the boot screen with the grey apple logo and a "no entry" symbol right above it. I'm at a loss, I've tried some of the things people have posted about hitting F8 and then entering "rd=disk0" or something similar, but nothing even happens when I hit F8. I'm doing this on a Compaq Presario C500 laptop. Any help would be much appreciated.
