    Hackintosh 10.5.5 Retail Rig - Starting at $305

    Anyone had problems with power management on the ES2L? It occurs to me that my external HDD never spins down. That may be because I'm using it with Time Machine, but TM only does one backup a day, no? The other issue I'm having is that the external HDD is meant to power off when the PC does...

    I can't offer much advice except to say that I set up a system with that board last night and Ethernet worked OOTB. Weird.

    Hack up and running :-) Man is this _sweet_. ES2L board, no problems installing 10.5.6, then installing 10.5.7 combo. UInstaller to install Kaido's mobo kit and Chameleon, and to specify vid card and resolution. Thanks for the kit, Kaido! Issues: No audio even though I installed the kit...

    @Kaido Just got my ES2L system up and running (Ubuntu livedisc... haven't attempted Leo install yet). You got an ETA on your ES2L guide? If you're close to posting it I'll hold on and have a look at it instead of stumbling in the dark.

    Hi, I'm fairly new myself but I think I can answer your question. Kallaway and iDeneb are premodified Leopard install discs. Firstly, if you're using one of them, it's a reasonable assumption that you don't own a legitimate copy of Leopard and that's piracy. Secondly, I don't think you can...

    Kaido: Thanks for the advice and encouragement! I'm too curious not to go ahead with the project, so you'll be hearing about the results. Regarding the link you posted, the poster didn't say whether or not he distributed his app. I have little doubt that I'll be able to develop and test on a...

    *epic facepalm* I'm building this machine for iphone development. I've just found some discussions implying that Apple won't give you a certificate to distribute apps if you don't have official Apple hardware. Anybody know the real story?

    Soo... I really hate to be that guy. But hell, I am that guy. I'm about to place an order for my hackintosh hardware (first timer). If somebody has a moment and feels like offering an opinion... http://www.lambda-tek.com/comp...0ACPU%091597066%091%0A I'm going for a fairly budget...

    Hey Kaido Nice writeup, thanks for the hard work. I'm getting ready to purchase hardware for my first attempt at a Hackintosh. I realise this thread is rather outdated and you're working on a new one. Have your hardware recommendations changed? I'm shooting for the budget rig so not planning...
