t20 Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 You can disconnect the Windows HD during Mac OS install, once it's working, re-connect the Windows HD and set the Mac OS one as first in boot order in BIOS, Chameleon should let you choose which OS to start. Is Chameleon a boot disc?
oldnapalm Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 It's a boot loader, used to boot Mac OS on hackintoshes.

I did what you told me to do (take off printer drivers, language support etc) but it still gives me an error on installation about half way through install
oldnapalm Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 No idea then. No more details in error message? Maybe your image is corrupted, did you check md5 sum? -Guides and Tutorials HERE -Hackintosh Tutorial Database - HERE -The largest EFI folder collection for Hackintosh HERE -Support Olarila Vanilla Hackintosh by making a donation HERE -Professional Consulting for macOS Hackintosh since 2006 HERE
t20 Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 No idea then. No more details in error message? Maybe your image is corrupted, did you check md5 sum? How would I do that? Could it also be because my graphics card is an ATI? Because I noticed on the 'Chipsets' section of the Customise part there is a box to tick next to AppleATIATA ?
oldnapalm Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 Most likely it's a problem with the image. Use some app like md5summer to calculate the checksum and compare with the one (if) provided where you got the dmg.

Tried with another USB drive. Don't have another HD to try it on I tried with other bootloaders too, but they don't recognise the USB. Why's that? Also could I be getting this error message because of my specs?

l0l0 Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 [attachment=0]dsdt.l0l0.zip[/attachment] I have a question, should I remove AppleCPUPowerManagement.kext or any other kext? I use my laptop connected to HDMI (which works fine) but if I close the lid the computer goes to sleep and wont come back from it. Didn't used to do that before the DSDT you made for me. I guess I need something else like the SleepEnabler.kext. Sorry for been such pain but after trying to compile a DSDT on my own for a long time I finally came across you that is willing to help. Thanks
